Not sure exactly where i picked up a virus,, but I had picked up the CPUZ from a link here on the forum and  ended up getting W32/Sality virus,, I ran a complete AVG run on system and CPUZ file plus 3 other files were infected,, other 3 were already files that were on system when it was sent to me,,  the other 3 were nvusmb.exe, nvudisp, and  ( i have  to recheck the filename, will post later )  also the 3 other files i talk about are all size 368 kb,  when being shown infected,, after cleaning they all resize to 348 kb,,, a 20 kb diff...

as i said, im not quite 100% sure it came from that web link,, but it all started right after.... 
also, my DS system is not connected or never has been to the internet,,
 
just thought i'd pass along info so ppl check those files u download!!

That virus came from a driver from Creative directly. Not sure why it had that virus. It was a very minor case here, which was corrected immediately.
