Cant fix virus
« on: July 14, 2004, 11:08:23 AM »
Hi all.  I have recently installed avast and it has found a virus called Win32:Wintrim-011[Trj]
I cant seem to fix this or even find any help on the net as to what this virus is or how to repair.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Catherine

Hi Catherine,

please read the link "VirusRemoval" below in my Sig and follow instructions or give us more info (e.g. which WIN you use, where was the virus found..?)

Here are also some links to info & removal instructions for WINTRIM-Variants..:
VGREP

SPYBOT & Ad-AWARE might also be worth a try..

Hi.  Thanks for your reply.  I am running windows xp home edition.  The virus was found in "C:\WINDOWS\mslagent\uninstall.exe" file.

Did you try those ??
If so, with what results..
IF not, why not ? ;)

or do a boot-time scan with avast, or delete/move the file in safeMode (F8-Boot) with avast or manually..
