1252741 2012-01-07 07:02:00 So I was sitting on my computer looking at FB when all of a sudden it closed out. It came up virus detected. When I tried to use my microsoft security essentials it said it was not installed, but it is bc that is what I have been using. It is saying I need to activate Vista antivirus 2012. It says that

wscript.exe is infected with Trojan-BNK.Win32.Kelogger.gen

I have no idea what that means but I just know it will not let do anything and says system integrity alert. Attack from 164.173.59.93 port 55318 attack port 5843 threat Joke.1068

again I do not know what that means either. That part is in a seperate box saying vista antivirus alert 2012. Please can someone help me fix this!!! I am so lost. I posting from my phone so I am reading what the boxes on the screen are saying

1252743 2012-01-07 07:22:00 That looked very suspicious so I Googled the virus name.....

Trojan-BNK.Win32.Keylogger.gen is a fake virus warning (a pop-up window that says your PC is infected). It deceives people into downloading/installing various malware voluntarily. Trojan-BNK.Win32.Keylogger.gen is a non-existent virus. It may also prompt users to obtain a full version of fake anti-virus software in order to remove threats which do not even exist. If the Trojan-BNK.Win32.Keylogger.gen keeps popping up on your computer, please use legitimate anti-malware to remove it.

1252744 2012-01-07 07:23:00 It should be, I just updated it the other day. The thing is it is not.letting me do anything. If I hit continue with computer unprotected will it let me download that thing you are talking about? angchick (16026)
1252745 2012-01-07 07:25:00 A friends PC once got this or similar. I booted to "safe mode with networking", downloaded www.malwarebytes.org updated and scanned. Tbird650 (6754)
1252746 2012-01-07 07:28:00 But it wont let me turn on my MSSE.... It is blocking me from that. When I try to use microsoft sdcurity essentials it says computer at risk. When I try to start it it says could not start, the specified service does not exist as an installed service. But it is bc I use it. angchick (16026)
1252747 2012-01-07 07:30:00 Sorry to soundg ignorant but how do I put it in safemode? I do not know much about this limd of stuff. angchick (16026)
1252748 2012-01-07 07:32:00 It should be, I just updated it the other day. The thing is it is not.letting me do anything. If I hit continue with computer unprotected will it let me download that thing you are talking about? Quite comonly the computers' own antivirus will be deactivated, access to online antivirus can be blocked and installing another antivirus program can be prevented as well. Renaming an antivirus install file name, can be a work-around. Tbird650 (6754)
1252749 2012-01-07 07:36:00 Sorry to soundg ignorant but how do I put it in safemode? I do not know much about this limd of stuff.Typically, F8 key at boot up will show the various safe mode options. Safe mode with networking will allow internet access. Tbird650 (6754)
