HAVING A VERY HARD TIME
« on: May 03, 2004, 01:55:36 PM »
ok, so there is a message every two seconds that a virus is found, since these are system32, .exe files, what do i do with them?  The fact that the names are just scrambled letters leads me to believe that they are in fact useless, but i still dont know whether to delete, move, or move to the chest.

that is a generic detection avast uses to identify a ton of trojans. scan http://housecall.trendmicro.com and tell me what the exact name is

Hi,

use the following removal instructions, or delete the files manually or with avast after booting into safeMode (F8-Boot)

REVOP
Spybot

Please tell us the exact location where the trojans are found:
full path/folder/filename, (e.g. like C:\Windows\system32\trojanfile.exe)
This tells us whether they have been active, and whether you should redo your system from scratch, or just delete them  ;)


Win ME/XP: if they are ONLY found in RESTORE folder: see above links on how to disable System RESTORE
