Something weird happened last week. I left my laptop on during the day
while I was at work and when I got home I had some 30 IE windows
opened and a nice set of trojans to go with it.
I don't use IE regularly. I use Firefox or Mozilla Seamonkey.
Well....I had some 5 types of trojans and did some searching for what
I should do.
Prior to this surge I had McAfee Internet Suite, Ad-Aware and
ZoneAlarm. All up-to-date definitions and still McAfee didn't catch
it.
So then I downloaded the programs I got reommendations for:
I got the vundofix program, superantispyware, avg and spybot. Updated
them all and ran them on safe mode.....still didn't clean them.
I then found out about disabling the windows system restore. So I
disabled it and ran all the programs again and they caught a few and
cleaned it. After I reboot I rescanned and they again found the same
items.
Why do they keep coming back? I haven't used the computer for anything
since.
Not one single browsing. Not one single email received. Nothing.
But still the items found are found again after every single reboot
and scan.
Right now I have Virtumonde and Adware.Vundo Variant being caught by
both Spybot and SuperAntiSpyware.
What can I do to rid my computer from these trojans?
Thanks in advance,
FayeC |

No it will not. I was waiting for one of you dumb ass trolls to make that
mistake. That knock off stolen pieced together script does "NOT" work for
Vundo or any variant. The code for it does not get copied when Stuart stole
my script. It's a little protection feature I put in Remove-it to guard
against thieves, one of many, but then you didn't know that did you troll?.
Now be a good little boy and apologize to Faye for giving her bad
information. Hell it doesn't even say it fixes it on his website.

All you have to do is a google for PCBUTTS1 and THIEF or PIRATE and
you'll find TONS of them about his actions and ethics.

check your firewall settings for one, I had cleaned a customers PC and it
stayed clean until I set it up at her house (no router firewall)
sure enough, infected first boot, it was allowing it's self thru the
firewall , so check that.
The second thing will be to remove the drive and clean it with another
computer.
There seems to be a variant that the removal tools cannot remove quite yet,
and I say that because I think the infection I was dealing with was
partially cleaned out but left the little pop up message in the lower right
hand side of the desktop, but failed to do anything beyond that.
Good luck!
Clark...

Trying to reply to the Original Poster:
I don't know if BugHunter will remove offending files. It seems that the OP
has done what needs doing, but the offending files keep coming back.
Perhaps disabling System Restore before re-booting into Safe mode, or
booting from a boot CD (assuming Windows XP), would stop the return
of the offending files.
Disabling System Restore removes all previous restore points, it seems,
which isn't desirable, seems like you could turn it off, and re-boot and run
scanner(s), and if nothing deleted go back to where you started. >> Stay informed about: Vundo + others: Can't get rid of them |

apparently you have no idea what the term "anti-malware community"
means... figures...
for the clue-challenged, the anti-malware community is the community of
folks who help others with their malware problems (among other things),
not the community of folks who *have* malware problems...
