469501 2006-07-08 23:22:00 I have been attacked by the above.
Have run spy bot and it removed and ran housecall and it removed it too.
Problem is, AVG finds it each day and removed,for all that I am sure it is still on here.
Also did a clean out via hijack this.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
XP SP2.

Oh also AVG leaves message...Partion table (MBR)which I presume is where it fixed it from.

469502 2006-07-08 23:30:00 Try Trojan remover (http://www.simplysup.com/)

It seems to have 4 variations of it in its database.

I would also kill those P2P programs, if any are installed.

This is most probably how u got it in the first place.

469504 2006-07-09 01:18:00 Thanks chaps.
Ran Speedy worm finder,found nothing.
I do have a P2P app but don't activate much these days,most when scanned contained virii,so have mostly given it away.
Will now look at T reco. now and see how that goes.

469505 2006-07-09 02:43:00 I just wonder why you didn't run your anti-stuff while you are running in SAFE MODE?

Turn of your system restore settings and make sure the little beastie isn't hiding in there to re-infest you over and over each time you boot.

I personally never run system restore at all...it just ties up hdd space and is a haven for malware.

How does one get a Hijackthis out of safe mode?You can take a copy,then when one comes out of course it re starts and the copy has gone?

HijackThis opens Notepad to show the log.

Save the file, Cicero (File-Save As) to somewhere that you know where it is, name it to something you will remember.

Then when it reboots, just like magic the file should still be exactly where you left it saved!

It's a bit of a worry as to how you managed to do this. Particularly after this post (www.pressf1.co.nz).
