I ran a program called "The Cleaner" which is a trojan hunter program.It found only 3 traces of "mywebsearch" that I removed. After reboot I can successfully log into any of the user accounts, but it's like the shell is not fully functioning. All I have is my wallpaper. Nothing else. No icons, no task bar. Right clicking does not work. I can however Ctrl-Alt-Del and bring up Task Manager. I noticed that explorer is not running. I can go to "New Task" and type in explorer and it opens up a folder in explorer view. I can navigate through all my files and run any and all applications. I can connect to the internet and use my browsers just fine. I thought, "well, I'll boot into safe mode and see what's going on." When I try to boot into safe mode, I get an error message.
i am using WXP SP2 and i activated its Fax application. Can someone tell me why when i open it, Norton Antivirus is keeping to say that it blocked Netspy Trojan Horse from C:Windowssystem32fxsclnt.exe ? When i configured my Fax application i wrote ' Fax ' for IDST and ' Fax ' for IDSR. Was i right or wrong?
I am having to reinstall XP - the setup starts and then reformats the hard drive. After it has done that it won't start the program installation it just keeps looping and reformatting the hdd

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?
The error is "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive." There is no drive specified at the end of the sentence. There is an extra space (where maybe the drive is supposed to go) and then the period. I've tried a system restore to a date before I loaded a new photoshop program with no success. I see the others have run a program called "HijackThis v1.99.1" == then copied that log into the post. I've never used that program -- where can I find it and then what do I do so I can give you better information.
I'm looking for an all around good disk utility program that will monitor many different aspects of my harddrives etc. I'm only looking for free software though. If you have any suggestions, feel free to post them.
I recently replaced my old harddisk to a new harddisk. The old harddisk has windows xp home and other programs installed.I did not format the old harddisk, I only took out the old harddisk and replaced it with a new harddisk. I then installed windows xp home to the new hard disk.While I am installing programs on the new harddisk, I discovered that one of the programs do not allow me to activate the program license because I have previously activated the program on my old windows. I need to do a proper uninstallation to release the license, then I can activate the license of the program in the new hard disk.My question is, can I take out my current new harddisk, replace it with the old harddisk, boot up as normal into the old harddisk windows, uninstall the program inside the old harddisk, then replace the old hardisk with my new harddisk again.
I was wondering if there was a way to transfer the Program Files folder to the second disk withouth messing up the start path of those programs, and still be able to access them in the Start menu.
This is an odd problem that just won't go away, I have a friends computer who has win XP sp-2 they had Norton 2005 on it and uninstalled it cause it is just junk anyway. But the problem is that any program that needs to be installed or updated now gives the message that you need to install the norton disk in CD drive for unknownname install.In event viewer is says "Source: MsiInstaller, Type: Warning, Category: none, Event ID: 1001, Description: Detection of product '{C6F5B6CF-609C-428E-CA83176C021B}', feature 'Complete' failed during request for component'{A07EA0AF-E117-4A34-8D54-5D826F12988C}' for more help & support" blah, blah no help at web link.Also I cannot get windows update site to even load with anything in it all no message just blank, other websites seem fine.
I was able to take it out with BART PE which I had to put into the cd drive and it would boot from the disk and it found the Trojan in the Windows Operating Boot File but when I deleated it I could not boot up after that! I tried to boot from safe mode and it would freeze after I would enter my password and then enter. I had to restore the computer from a back up file I had but it is currently restored with the TROJAN AGAIN!
I am running: XP PRO w/SP2 / NT PLATFORM 5.1 (BUILD 2600.XPSP_SP2_GDR.050301-1519) Workstation / NTFS / i386 /EXPLORER EXE AMD PROCCESSOR
Recently i was looking for a file to download and i ended up in a German site [i think] and it something popped up so i press "ok" thinking it was the file i needed. Suddenly, norton popped up and it said that i have a trojan virus and aunable to repair. I forgot the address but it ended with "assistanthelper[1]" Im not sure though.
I've got the trojan.vundo virus. I have installed and run the vundo removal tool, and it shows me that it is gone-but when I restart my computer, Norton anti-virus finds it again (and again...and again).
PC is infected with this Trojan. I've downloaded xsoftspy and performed a full scan. It appears to remove the offending files but it still comes back.
When it does it tries to load up various internet sites telling me to download software.you advise running fixware. I've tried this and this is the result.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun] "MSMSGS"=""C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background" "ctfmon.exe"="C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exe" .... Hosts file was reset, If you use a custom hosts file please replace it... ~~~~~ End report ~~~~~
Recently, my laptop was attacked by a trojan called update.exe. i think i got it from an open network in a hotel. I have tried many things to try to get rid of it, ive ran all the spyware programs i have and ive gone into my hard drive and tried to delete it manually as well. nothing works to get rid of it. does anybody know how i could get rid of update.exe?
I am running windows XP and counterspy has picked up a FTP Attack Trojan. I quarantined then deleted it but it keeps coming back. I also tried a porgram called Swatit but that did not find anything wrong. My computer has started acting improperly.rejecting games etc.
I have a DLL in my windows/system32 folder. I have used a tool to see what processes are running and what they are associated with. It is asscoiated with explorer.exe as you can see that in the process checking tool. I have done some analysis on dlo1BC.dll and it appears it is virus, but I cant delete it, no matter what I try. When I shut down the conputer explorer wont shut down smoothly and I think this is because of the dlo1BC.dll associated with it in the processes.
I get this trojan today and i never get viruses usually but this one reaqlly is annoying!
Ive looked at all the other posts and ive tried using the vundo fix tool etc but it does not pick it up at all. Ive tried doing it in safe mode and ive tried unistalling java to see if it was involved with that but nothing has worked so far.
I have located the file in my system32 folder and its named xxyywtq.dll but theres no way it will let me delete it as it says it is being used by another program or person.
I have a problem with my PC. A few days ago I received a URL in MSN messenger that infected me with a trojan horse when I entered the site.
Since then, AVG antivirus has popped up every time I startup my computer and has told me "threat detected - trojan horse downloader." I proceed to heal the file, yet next time I start up the same thing happens. The file name is simply "installer.exe". Immediately after this, my internet explorer opens and opens "web.links4all.biz",which I believe re-infects me. Since then, I have worked with my PC for a few days, with the intention of coming on here and sorting out the problem when I get the chance, unfortunately, the problem has escalated.
During my usual practice, AVG popped up saying "threat detected" once again. This time, the problem was "Trojan horse flooder." I told it to heal the file, it said it was healed, but told me I had to restart my computer for the process to complete.I restarted my computer, but after the first windows loading screen, the system shuts off and automatically reboots, until it reaches this point where the same thing happens.
I've tried using safe mode, and nothing has changed, it still enters the cycle of restarting continually.
I have Windows xp. If I have a Trojan Horse on my pc, is it safe still to use it? or should I wait till I can get the TH off of here? What exactly will it do to my machine?
Recently my AVG has popped up saying that i have recieved a Trojan. Also the computer and internet seem to be alot slower and the computer wont actually turn it off, it will only go into standby.
I got 2 Trojans on both of my computers, both computers are ASUS (Custom built) running XP Home SP3, IE6 with Bose Speakers... AVG associates the sound driver with the trojans, which I don't understand... The first step would obviously be to delete the sound driver and install a new one, but I don't know of a TRUSTED site.
Does anybody know how to remove the trojan, requiembot? Norton does not even know what it is let alone provide a removal tool, unless of course, they know it by another name.
I have Norton Anti-virus installed and after a long session on the web this evening just to be safe I ran the Anti-virus in safe mode and it detected 4 infections.Dummy.Class, Get Access.Class, Insecure Class Loader.Class, Installer.Class All of the above were the Trojan. Byte Verify.Norton couldn't repair so had me quarantine the 4 files which I have done.My question is have I done enough or is there something else I should be doing? By quarantining am I to understand the infected file are still on my P.C. but can't do any harm, should I remove them and in simple clear terms how do I achieve this?
I canst seem to get rid of this AVsystemcare trojan like Daemon. Its causing my IE to crash and freeze... as well as causing other open applications to freeze at times.
