View 7 Replies View RelatedPC Shuts Down Due To Trojan Virus
May 10, 2010I know is it seems to be shutting itself down when it has just started up due to it having a virus of some sort, a trojan was mentioned. Can someone recommend what the best course of action is in this particular case? I suggested that if the OS (Vista) is accessible then reformatting the HD may be the best thing to do. But will this get rid of the virus/trojan as well? I am aware that this will involve losing all data. I'm led to believe rather than have the original discs, PC's these days come with a seperate partition which holds the OS, which is used when reformatting is required? How do I reformat the HD from here?

Jul 29, 2009Hey friends,I do understand that this is not the category in which I'am supposed to post such threads,but since this section/community is very active and consists of many professionals I thought of posting it here.I posted a thread in the other section meant for virus but unfortunately did not receive any kind of help or reply.
I downloaded a video through utorrents,when I tried to play it through 'Windows Media Player' it was'nt able to play it and a dialogue box appeared asking me to download a codec which was necessary to play that video.Since the dialogue box appeared through 'Windows Media Player' and due to my ignorance,I thought it was authorized and downloaded the codec..........

View 7 Replies View RelatedInfected Files With Virus Named Trojan-Downloader.Win32.VB.dck
Jan 10, 2009I turned on my computer the other day and an automatic download started to update my Verizon Internet Security Suiter (FIOS). I started a scan of my computer with the update. The new Security Suite update supposedly found 29,000+ infected files with a virus named Trojan-Downloader.Win32.VB.dck? The weird thing is - When I look for the files that are supposedly infected - or the folder that these files supposedly exist in I can't find it. The virus appears to have created a folder named " ' " on my hard drive - but when I look for this folder I can't find it. Even if I view hidden folders. My computer doesn't appear to be running strangly like it is infected. But the virus scan says it is.

Apr 11, 2008I just bought this new HP laptop several months and now its infected with malware Trojan. A full scan on Windows defender shows that trojan is detected in some of the .dll files. I deleted 2 files on which it said trojan was detected. But next time I scanned on Windows Defender, some other .dll file showed up. Also scan on Bell Sympatico's Anti virus service, it shows no virus or spywares. My laptop is very slow than before, and also internet explorer browsers keep opening and they take me to some random antivirus sites.

Jan 10, 2010I've done a full computer scan and it only found a couple of files. I know the exact time when I got it, so I've been scouting around my C:/ and I've found quite a few exe (and other type) files which are part of it. However I can't delete them due to 'permissions'. My standard task manager has been made invisible when I do CtrlAltDel but using sofware explorer I found a load of virus tasks set to run on startup and currently running, these I can end, but they just come back after a minute or so.

View 9 Replies View RelatedConficker.C, WORM, Serious Threat!!
Mar 25, 2009Just when you might have thought it was safe to start using USB flash drives at work again, the third, and by all accounts, most fiendish version of the Conficker worm that's infected millions of PCs already is set to attack on April 1st, Ars Technica reports. Conficker.C's designed to hide itself even more thoroughly than its older siblings Conficker.A and Conficker.B, using tricks such as:
•Inserting itself into as many as five Windows-related folders such as System, Movie Maker, Internet Explorer, and others (under a random name, of course)
•Creating access control entries and locking the file(s)
•Registers dummy services using a "one (name) from column A, one from column B, and two from column C" method
To find out what happens when Conficker.C strikes, join us after the jump.
Conficker.C's payload makes it harder than ever to recover from being infected:
•Deactivates Windows Security Center notifications
•Prevents restart in Safe Mode
•Prevents Windows Defender from running at system startup
•Deletes all system restore points
•Disables various error-reporting and security services
•Terminates over twenty security-related processes
•Blocks DNS queries
•Blocks access to security and antivirus websites
•And, to top it all off, Conficker.C can choose from a list of 500 domains to contact out of a pool of 50,000 (way up from Conficker.B's 32 out of 250).

+++++++++++++++++++++
I can't say much else, as I don't know much else, though I read about this on another Forum I belong to. I have all my Updates in place as always, ran MS Malware Removal Tool, Ran complete system Scan, my PC turned up clean of
Conflicker A and B as well as C, but then C has not been released as yet.
+++++++++++++++++++++
I do know MS has a bounty out on the individual responsible, $250,000 BUCKS!!
That should give you guys an Idea of how SERIOUS this THREAT is!!
I am not sure about the removal tool either, but that's the only one I found.
Thus far.
Conficker Worm Gets An Upgrade
Feb 26, 2009Conficker worm gets an upgrade. The Conficker worm, which infected millions of PCs last month, has received an upgrade which makes it much more effective. The new variant, dubbed Conficker B++, has been redesigned to get around attempts to shut it down. Previous versions checked for software updates from a list of 250 randomly generated URLs. But security companies managed to reverse engineer the algorithm that generated the URLs and design a way to block the software from updating. The new variant now uses a new set of backdoors to update itself.
