New virus Wim32
« on: April 26, 2005, 04:12:12 PM »
I found new virus on my computer. It's called Wim32_Codec.exe. It's propably cut off possibilities to manage the files and proceses. For instance, it's impossible to start 'msconfig' or files manager. Does anyone know how to erase this bloody virus?

I know it's old news but .............I am having the same problem you did with the "Win32_Cod.exe"

I loaded avast last night and ran the virus protector.  It found three infected files and OOPS, removed them before doing any kind of report  now msconfig is gone!!!!!!!!!!

I know this is probably a stupid question to you but how did you fix this and reinstall msconfig?

Thanks

Welcome to the forums, qostka.    :)

Please download HijackThis from the link below, run the program but do not make any fixes, and then post the log results in this thread using the "copy & paste" method. It will probably take more than one post to be able to get the complete log posted. Someone will review your log and then offer help.
