Hi Kosti,
Has this syssecuritypage.net. hijacked your browser, ie: your normal Internet Explorer home address has changed and no matter what you do it will not default to the one you specify? If so, I had a very similar malware attack which was called securityuptodate.net. Thankfully there was loads of postings out there on forums such as these and I was able to rid it myself by following the steps that I think CalamityJane had posted for someone else.
If the symptoms sound familar (browser hijack) then do a Google search on securityuptodate.net and there is loads of help out there. Although to be honest, and particularly if you're not too IT confident, I would wait for a reply from the experts here and let them guide you. From reading many of these entries, it's sometimes not a case of one size fits all for these problems and so they will be the best to advise you.
I realise none of this is any real help to you, but don't feel like you're the only person in the world who's been stung by sh*t like this, I had a sick feeling in my stomach when it happened to me, but I wasn't the first and I won't be the last!
Good luck.
