Keep getting this message every 20 minutes or so. I scanned with SEP and it picked up nothing, additionally I've used about 5-7 other programs to try and fiure it out, and nadda. If there is something on my computer and it knows it's there, why is SEP blocking it and not attempting to get rid of it?

This is actually a pretty

This is actually a pretty serious infection you have. Here is the page that has a few details about it http://www.symantec.com/business/security_response.... Try doing these steps and see what you can come up with.

1. Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).
2. Update the virus definitions.
3. Run a full system scan in safe mode. (different from typical full scan that you already did)
4. Delete any values added to the registry.

If you still can't get rid of it then you need to sumbit the file to symantec. We can then make a definition for it which you can download as a rapid release. The procedure for that is found here:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security....

And the guide to applying the rapid release is here:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security....

Also what version are you running?
