XP Possible Trojan / Commendeared My System / Seems To Be Bypassed But Not Removed
Dec 2, 2004
this is the message i get when running a "heavy duty" trojan remover: called trojanhunter 4.the entry in your system registry that specifies how to open an executeable file is not set to %*%1, as it should be, but instead the value is ". some trojans alter this key to make themselves autostart(which ive been experincing everytime i open program) Do you want to restore the default value for this key(recommended).when i open any program a screen comes up sayng: to protect your system from bad things: have this box clicked: when doing that a trojan runs on my system: i've lkearned not to trust that box: and run as if i didnt want protection::

I recently was provided with a new version of HP Printer software, that has taken my 2 computer hostage. Although the software has been removed the operating system of both, one XP PRO and one XP HOME, has been altered. The hidden phantom 'aministrator' i XP has become dominant, refusing to allow my long time administrator to take the lead. Each time we bot up, it goes to the generic admistrator screen, and we most log off, and manually open our personal administrator.
I have spoke to the very nice HP executive case managers in Canada and they are at a loss. HP refused to discuss this problem with Microsoft. The only reason the problem isn't more widespread the the disc was sent to me and the request of a 'helpful HP technician in India, and is not yet in printers that have shipped

i got a series of really bad viral infection on my computer. My virus programs took care of the viruses but also deleted some of the start up software that is used to boot up my computer correctly. as a last ditch effort I used the system restore function on my computer to reboot it back to a previous configeration. The computer booted back to its original out of the box configuration and I lost all my computer files (but on the flip side my computer was working perfectly now that this was done)
I take the computer to the repair shop so that they can do a deep memory scan to recover my files. They find some of the files and put them in a file folder located on my desktop. i am told by the techie working on my computer that there is a series of .dll errors at the start of windows and that they are the result of a viral infection (Obviously the system restore i did did not do its job of ridding me of the viruses. I did not notice the .dll errors when i initially did the system restore, but that doesn't mean that they weren't there)

I am currently running XP and have zone alarm due to trojan I had a year ago. Two months ago for some reason I could no longer change my desktop background and when i tried to restore the computer to a previous time before we had the problem it would not work-none of the days I tried to restore (I tried multiple days). I since was able to restore my desktop (my brother ran some program) but ever since then the computer has run EXTREMELY SLOW

I have windows xp, i have avg antivirus and have run the tests in pc pitstop and done a regular search thru windows for the Trojan-Dropper.VBS.Inor.cz but can't locate it on my pc. My IE browser freezes everytime i go to a particular site and yet when i ask if anyone else has trouble with that site only a very few people say yes. The solution they give me is to download Mozilla and use it for that site. That doesn't protect me from the trojan completely infecting me does it? Can anyone tell me how to delete this trojan?

Recently I removed all malware from a friends PC 'that I could find' with x2 spyware removal tools, sophos anti-virus app and manually looking through program files in explorer.Since doing this I have stopped all annoying pop-ups and IE is running a lot quicker but there is a RUNDLL message that I cannot get rid of:
Error loading c:Documents and Settingsusername locals settings empse.dll
The specified module could not be found.I have cleared out the temp file in hope that something in there was looking for se.dll but no luck.

for some reason i was under the impression that my work computer had virus protection. well... nope. i had to reload the o/s (windows 2000 pro) after the computer crashed but fortunately i lost none of my data, mostly because i keep it on a thumb drive so i can work on it at home. i now have norton AV on it and got rid of more than 14 viruses or threats, and now i am wondering if anything else was left that wasn't detected. oh, and the computer is a dell optiplex gx150 workstation.

I have a Dell XPS Gen 2 Series P4 SP1, 120 gig HD, 2GB DDR SDRAM at 400 MHZ, SP1 updated with all updates and hotfixes except SP2. I downloaded SP2 and tried to install it, got a failure on install about half way through, and it proceded to uninstall what it had installed. Only problem, it uninstalled more than it should have. Media Player won't work, had version 9 of it, d/l Ver.10 and tried to install, but it says that my previous files are newer than the files

Recycle bin does not display any files after I remove some files. However, the properties of recycle bin are in normal setting which means that the removed files will not be deleted immediately. Thus, I do not why that
happen.

I have a Dimension 4700 and I was recently going through my add/remove programs list trying to clean up and get rid of some programs I didn't use anymore(like google earth, partypoker, etc) and I came across Yahoo Download Manager and figured I didn't need it and right when I clicked remove my computer shuts down, I am not sure how anything in this would have that kind of effect on my computer from removing, or if it was just a coincidence. I go to reboot it and get the blue screen error message Stop C000021a and below gives me another error- f 0xc0000135.

I got hijacked the other night and ran a program to remove the bad programs. They have all been removed from the system according to the program but I am still having trouble opening files and folders including My Computer and Control Panel. I think this may be because, I've heard, hijacking software alters certain things on the computer so that you can't simply access the control panel and undo all of the trouble it has caused. The error message that I recieve every time I try to open files, folders, etc. reads:
"explorer.exe has generated errors and will be closed. You will have to restart the program. An error log is being created." The computer will occassionally freeze up after I click ok.

It started when I went to open a program that I've used reliably for years -- it started hanging, became unresponsive, and started sucking up all of my virtual memory. I uninstalled and reinstalled a clean copy, and the same thing happened when I tried to load it.I've since completely uninstalled the program, deleted all of its remaining files from my system, removed all of its registry entries.
I now have one folder that I cannot access, for no apparent reason. It's just a folder where I've got quite a bit of video stored (77 clips equalling roughly 13GB). Attempting to open it now results in explorer.exe sucking up all of my system resources until it (explorer.exe) crashes and restarts. (CTRL+ALT+DEL shows Memory Use and VM Size skyrocketing to 700,000+)
