Win32 Alureon-ER
« on: December 24, 2009, 09:54:51 PM »
This is my first time dealing with a virus and I have handled it very poorly so far. I have been moving it to the chest only to have it reappear again at startup or later in the session, also have deleted the file with the same result. The virus is in file tdlcmd.dll . I need to know how to proceed from here to remove the virus and also the security risks involved. XP Home edition, service pack 3, Pentiun 4, 2.66 GHZ, 512 MB Ram.Thanks Rbtbob

As I said in my first post, I have been moving the infected file to the virus chest and deleting it for about two weeks. After reading about the nature of this virus I am very concerned about my internet accounts with  credit card and PayPal usage involved. What would you advise at this point as the best measures to prevent possible abuse of passwords and other confidential information??

I would change all Usernames / Passwords, and don`t use this computer for online banking before it is clean
