Repairing help
« on: June 11, 2004, 04:36:37 AM »
I have 24 infected files on my computer. But there all in my system32 file, and i can't delete them cause those files are important. But when i try repairing them it doesn't work.

If anyone could help me with this problem i would be very thankful.

What are the exact filenames of the affected files?
What is the name of the reported virus?

Some malwares tend to put themselves in the system folder so users would not be suspected or delete the file.
As igor said, providing the path and the virus name to the infected files would be a great help.

Yes, that's what I meant.
These files are not important - they are simply the worm files. You can delete them.

Yes I'm sure that's what they need, in the mean time you could do a search in google.com and search for those filenames, it will give you an idea of what they are exactly.

If you haven't already got some protection against Spyware, adaware, spybot Search and Destroy or the two programs at the end of my signature then you need to get some protection against Spyware. Those two can be downloaded from http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/index.html.

These programs should rid you of the majority of the problem.

Since there are many questions concerning the fact that an infected file is important or not for the system integrity, shouldn't it be a nice (and unique) feature to display this kind of information in the warning window ?  ;)

Could this kind of information be inserted in definition files ?   ???

No, it can't - because it's actually impossible to decide.
When I (as I human, I mean ;)) look at the filenames, I can easily tell that the names are random (thus, they are not "official" files); however, there is nothing like a list of "important" files. Besides, the user may have various additional software installed - so his/her list of important files will be different.

I understand. So you have to put your human brain into avast !!  :D

Maybe it could be the Heuristic thing many folks are asking (great AI work to be done !!)

Here the heuristic would not be on detection but on the cure decision. It would be a unique feature !!
