Symantec site works great as well...

once a week I perform a scan of my cpu with Ad-aware V6.0 and spybot, but yet some trojans are not removed. For example I did a scan today with both programs and nothing was found.

I then went to the symantec website posted in the above post and 1 trojan was found in
C:\WINDOWS\msiexec.exe is infected with Trojan dropper

But when I did a log using HIJACK THIS program, I was able to identify it and have it removed. Spybot and Ad-aware couldn't resolve the trojan issue.
I for one am sure that many of you if not ALL of you have some form of spyware on your cpu that is not able to be removed via SPYBOT and AD-AWARE. Hijack this resolves this issue.



Its called HIJACK THIS

Here is the program... http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/

An F.Y.I. Dr. Strangelove


I'd suggest you always check with http://www.cnet.com/ when looking into software (or other technology) matters.

Their article is here:

http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10227352.html

Summary??? A popular program with an 81% approval rating, with this rather ominous note:

Note: HijackThis does not target specific programs/URLs, just the methods used by hijackers to force you onto their sites. As a result, false positives are imminent and unless you are sure what you're doing, you should always consult with knowledgable folks (e.g. the forums) before deleting anything.

very true KMA, just as you suggested one should not do anything (remove files) until told by someone with knowledge of what they're doing (I removed my file(s) only when told what to remove by one of the forums tech consultants)

ok, I did the housecall thing, and I came up with 5 different viruses :eek:

BKDR_SINIT.A
TROJ_MUSS.A (4 times)

The problem is that the first "can't be accessed" and the other 4 are "non cleanable". I was afraid to just delete them, but is that ok? Thanks.

65,

did you perform a scan with ad-aware 6.0 and spybot?

do that first, if you don't have the programs you can download them from here...

spybot: http://tomcoyote.org/SPYBOT/index1.php

ad-aware: http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=506
scroll down and near teh bottom on the right hand side you should see DOWNLOAD FROM: BTN and an american flag, click there.

do a scan with each and then post results

65:

follow each step closely and then post your results on here (copy and paste)

go to: http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/

then click on HIJACK THIS (green light flashing beside it)
then click on save, then when it is done downloading, open it, then click on the program HIJACK THIS.
then click on scan....DO NOT TOUCH OR CLICK ON ANYTHING EXCEPT clicking on "SAVE LOG".
then click on save (saving log file)
then a box should pop up copy and paste it here.... I will then take a look and see what's on your cpu (viruses, worms, trojans spyware etc etc)
Then if needed, I'll have a professional techie look at it.

cheers

Registry Keys is the directory for your computer to know where all your files and programs are located.


If you don't know, DO NOT MESS WITH IT. You'll end up being sorry!!!!

Make note of the offending programs location(s), boot into "safe mode", delete them, Then reboot. Please doo NOT attempt to edit the Registry if you are not exactly sure of what you are doing.
