Try this first:

Go to Options
Shields
Start up Programs
Edit Start up Items


and stop the annoying program from there.

1. Make sure your system shows hidden files and folders
2. Start your computer in safe mode.
3. Start the registry editor. This is done by clicking Start then Run. (The Run dialog will appear.) Type regedit and click OK. (The registry editor will open.)
4. Browse to the key:
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Run'
5. In the right pane, look for a 14-character long random looking value, starting with a number. Remeber the file (*) it points to and delete the 14-character value.
6. Exit the registry editor.
7. Start Windows Explorer and delete:
the file (*) mentioned above.


The trojan uses random filenames and registry entries, but it seems to be pseudo random (?). Extremely hard to detect, Bazooka will try, but will most likely fail.


A clear sign of infection is a 14 character long registry value starting with a number, located in:
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Run'.
Another indication of infection is random named processes listed in the Task Manager's process list. Another sign of infections is network connections to rads01.quadrogram.com (66.150.207.200).

Be very careful in the registry. Things can get pretty f**kd up unless you know what you're doing. Sometimes they'll put mulyiples in the registry. I would take it to a PC club or other fix-it shop. Stay out of Porn and E-mail spam.

I would be scared to even start to try this.......I would probably screw things up big time......
