What makes you think you could be infected? Did a scan alarm on anything?

<-QUOTE} yes i saw arbitrary code and the word slammer . i do not program , ie6 keeps getting knocked over , opera now , lol ha . i think slammer is trying to "phone home"
the actual words were virus detected . and then coding .
recieving a lot of malformed/crafted pkts since posting here lol ? oh well . but have asviewer results and tds logs for 2 days submitted to support. do'nt really want to fdisk , but alas who knows , as always ty .. time for portscan i think

Is this from your firewall?
A portscan on a certain port doesn't mean immediately you're infected.

At least make sure your firewall is up, you might like to test your ports at grc.com -shieldsup and all available tests including all ports you like especially to be tested.
As TDS doesn't detect viruses, which program warned and what did you do then?

At least try one of the online scans as a second opinion; during that you best close your installed av/at (tds is not necessary as it doesn't run resident)
and you might like not to set the online scans for automatic cleaning but do that afterwards once you know the results log.
