Ok so I've been running my computer for 3 months without antivirus and firewall (Licensed XP SP3) and I've had no real problems till yesterday when Start button wasn't working and in processed I had 10 processes named "exe.KCUF" (Assemble it backwards) so I installed a trial version of NOD32 because it's low-resource software and it says the following (At only few % of the scan, I will post another when I finish):





(I need something to cleanup my computer, Thanks) :grr:

You'll need one with a Rootkit cleaning, cause it seems ur MBR is infected.

So go install the avast free version.

Hello sir , firstable , you shouldn't of running your pc without antivirus specially if you use internet and you download a lot of things , even if your xp is licensed that doesn't mean a thing since your computer is affected now,
In the window of NOD saying treath found , simply click clean , i think it will delete the trojan normally;Goodluck

Remove via safemode. Either that or just format.

You should at least run a scantime anti malware. I don't run any antivirus guard either. But I do have Malwarebytes on my machine that I do scan my machine from time to time to make sure i am clean. Also when you download miscellaneous files you can always right click -> scan with Malwarebytes.

If you decide to format and the infection worked its way into your MBR. I would just low level format. Active@ Kill Disk Hard Drive Eraser. Low Level Format. Burn the free version to a CD and boot from it. It will write your hard drive with 1 pass all 0's. Which means your hard drive will be completely empty like it came from the factory brand new. No chance of file recovery. Effective at stomping out any malware.

You should also preform a system restore to about a week before this happened. Get Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and (Anti-virus of choice), update + run them both.

@OP: You should also change your password(s), specially if you use msn a lot.
