Ok , this is how the situation has. 3 days my firewall poped up and an
application in my C:\Documents And Settings\Administrator\Local
Settings\temp wanted to connect at port 80 of an address.
It had a weird icon and a weird name ( Rar1.exe).
I denied all connection to the internet from the application , killed
it from the taskmanager and then deleted the exe from the temp folder.
I rebooted and the damn thing showed up again , everything the same
except the file name. tub1.exe this time.
Every time i deleted it it showed up in the next reboot with diffrent
name. I searched the registy but i didnt find anything, neither on
google for the names of the file. I also used plenty different trojan
cleaners with no success and Norton Antivirus with latest dfinitions
but again, no success.
I cant find the file where the executable is being generated from
everytime i start my computer. Does anyone had the same problem or
knows a solution for this?
Other names that the executable in my temp had: uvw4.exe , pgv1.exe ,
mid1.exe, mus1.exe , rip1.exe , yfb1.exe , iki1.exe >> Stay informed about: Damn trojan in my temp (probably). Advice needed. |

Did you try a trojan removal program? >> Stay informed about: Damn trojan in my temp (probably). Advice needed. |

Disable System Restore, then scan with NAV.

Maybe my mind is going.......but I don't think you have System Restore
on Windows 2000.......at least, not when I used it for a couple of weeks
last summer. Or am I misreading what you are asking. To disable System
Restore on Win2000? Or get rid of your problem.

I was asking how to get rid of this thing in my temp but someone said
something about system restore which i also believe can't be disabled
in Windows 2000.

Can't be enabled there either. It was only added to NT in NT 5.1 (XP)
after prototype horror in WinME.
