System Attacked By Virus / Unable To Delete Folder ?
Oct 10, 2005
i have an external/portable hard disk. i connect it to my laptop by usb.everything used to be okay, i mean with all the contents inside it. but now recently i have this problem with this particular folder. all folders could be clicked, highlighted, right clicked, accessed; but this one folder, whenever i attempt to highlight it/select it, or when i single/double or right click it, the window would just freeze.
After going through a virus attack, losing a hard drive, fighting off hackers, upgrading all my software, installing fire-walls, being threatened with being cut-off by my email provider, and a host of other problems, I have fixed my computer.... NOW it works exactly the way I want it to!
i checked my e-mail like 2 mins. ago and i had a bunch of Bulk mail, i checked it, and it said "hi, bye heres the details" ?, i have no idea who this person is, but the attachment was this: Virus Scan Results File name: Attachments00.HQX File size: 131kb File type: application/x-msdownload Scan result: Virus "W32.Blackmal.E@mm" found.

C:WINDOWSTELNET.EXE Ist das Trojanische Pferd TR/Dldr.Small.RN.1 That's what AntiVir. told me today - and I have no idea how to get rid of it, as marking the option "delete" on AntiVir doesn't seem to effectively delete the file.I haven't spotted or better said, felt, any anomalies in the doing of any things to do on my PC...but the fact that the Trojan is there disturbs me greatly since I don't know what exactly it will destroy when it fully activates itself.Just now again it gave me this alert: C:WINDOWSLASTGOODSYSTEM32TELNET.EXE Ist das Trojanische Pferd TR/Dldr.Small.RN.1
i cannot access my "regedit" on run,it will alert me "this program has been disable by administrator" and restart automatically..i cannot access"msconfig" on run,it also restart automatically..my folder option also gone.i have hidden file n now i cannot open it anymore because my folder option gone..i already try to find it but still cannot find..what should i do..??i think it was a virus attack because there's one ie file in "My Picture" name "brontok.a[10]" and even i delete it,it will back again to the folder..i already try to remove it using Microsoft & McAfee antispyware,McAfee antivirus,Norton antivirus but still no change.
Appears that some sort of virus took me by surprise. It wiped out most of my .jpg files (from dig. camera) and my TB email account.The only thing I did prior was run AdAware in safe mode for XP.I use AVG, Zone alarm Panicware's popup stopper.Is there any hope of getting my pics back?
i really need somIm a gamer, by nature, i have what id like to think of as a high spec PC. It has Windows XP Proffesional, SP2. I keep it very clean, anyway enuff of my sadness.Jus recently i was hit by a virus. AVG free, finally cleaned it up, and now im receiving Windows Security Alerts. The exact message is "To help protect your computer, Your registry has to be fixed. To resolve theis problem, obtain the latest update." only trouble is, i click accept, it downloads this program called System Registry Cleaner 2.4, and then i have to pay for it before i can use it. Unfortunately it doesnt accept solo, so i went ahead and purchased a registry cleaner from somewhere else.
I have windows xp sp3 while running avast 4.8 a warning stating cwindowssystem32drivers was infected with win32 alueron. I shut down my computer to run a boot time scan and now my computer is starting indefinatly. While attempting to start in safe mode computer states press enter to continue loading sptd.sys. I press enter and it restarts.
I have attached my log from AdAware showing the files that I can't delete.Also, here is my HiJack Log. Computer is acting weird, the taskbar will not hold it's settings (keeps turning off the quick launch) and occasionally the screen will just show the background, not files and I have to restart the computer.

i have a file that has suddenly popped up in the PREFECH folder, all my attempts to delete it have failed, i get the message, access is denied, make shure the file is not protected or in use in another programme, the file in question is frome some helecopter game i deleted over a week ago. normally iwould not bother with such a trivial thing but when i try to empty PREFECH it pops up so i have to delete all the PREFECH items one by one , this is not a pleasant task as sometimes there are over 100 items
I've been unable to delete a folder and subfolder that appeared out of nowhere in October of 2003. The folder is named C:502371470d48710f4f and contains a subfolder named sp2. The subfolder contains 0 files. Both folders are read-only. I go to Properties and uncheck the read-only attributes; however when I try to delete I then find that the attributes have returned to (grayed-out) read-only. Access, of course, is denied.
Going through work computer trying to delete large amounts of old files. Some of them are just photos (part of work practice). I can not access them, to open them for viewing, nor delete them. Not part of old programs, just photos or .docs. Problem One: Opening a specific folder A. First: causes major delay when I try to access the folder A Second: Error Msg reads: The disk in drive C is not formatted. Do you want to format it now? No, I really just want to delete it. Third: Try deleting folder that the folder B that folder [B]A/B] is in, Error Msg: Cannot delete folder, the directory is not empty.

I think the above folder will come back when needed, but I am not sure.

Well I downloaded a program and my Bitdefender picked it up as a virus I knew it wasn't because my friend had downloaded it from the same place and it worked. So I closed Bitdefender and unzipped it again used the program and when I turned my Pc on the next day Bitdefender came back on and saw the 'Viruses' So I'm now stuck with 5 files on my Desktop that I cannot delete (two files are from the program and .exe and a .dll) the other one file is a text document which I was scripting for a game I am making and when I went to save it Bitdefender said it was a highly dangerous virus.
