    Re: Trojanremover

    Find out the name of the trojan, then go to the Symantec site and download the removal tool.

    Re: Trojanremover

    i suggest to stay away from symantec, back in the dos days they had a good reputation but nowadays i recommend all of our customers to get rid of the yellow pest :)

    depending on what trojan you have either spybot,adware or free avg are helpfull
    post a hijackthis log and i might able to help you remove it manually which is in most cases the best solution (http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en...ols/hijackthis)

    regards

    edit: wrong link sorry

    strange thing.. When i had NOD32 (used more than 2 years) i always got trojans, even see them in the Process list running, but NOD32 didnt say anything... and i always got problems like 1ce month.. now im with Norton 1 year, and.. he just detects the virus lol

    i know the programs that have best sensitivity are
    1.Kaspersky
    2.Norton

    look @ Kaspersky web there are more.

    http://www.free-av.de/en/index.html
    and reading your log ....

    so
    you have "MyWebSearch" Malware
    and the bittorrent dns service also looks suspicious (But not 100% sure about this)
    spybot search&destroy should be able to handle it
    download @ http://www.safer-networking.org
    if that doesnt work we figure out something else

    Nod32 has an 80% detection rate for unknown viruses (and that was using a month old virus definition file)

    Other antiviruses have 40-60% detection rates for unknown viruses

    I have used that a few times. and has helped Greatly. Not saying its a 100% chance it will remove it. but everyone iv gotten it has. Install for use. and uninstall.

    not sure if it did help, but yeah i think it somewhat did. i went to shop and came back saw NOD32 popping virus notes about trojan. so i downloaded that remover wich you provided here and havent seen those notification so far...but this is only the battle we have won. i still have war left to fight.

    Are those known viruses or unknown?

    "When it comes to proactive protection, Eset's NOD32 was the hands-down winner in "Virus Stoppers," our eight-program antivirus roundup. In our tests, it caught 79 percent of unknown malware samples when using one-month-old signature files. The next-closest program, BitDefender Antivirus 10, came in with a distant 61 percent.

    NOD32's overall malware detection rate wasn't stellar, however. When pitted against AV-Test.org's nearly 900,000-strong "zoo" of Trojans, viruses, and other malware, NOD32 caught only 90 percent, compared to the 96 percent rate of top performers Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6, Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2007, and BitDefender Antivirus 10."

    Chances are That remove got rid of it. if it comes up again, Like he said. Reformat. Just be sure to make a backup on a External HDD of all the things that you need, and are sure are not infected,

    ok genuis - how would he know what is infected and what is not if he cannot detect the viruses and malware right now ?

    how do you do a clean backup ?
    more useless advice ... from misc members...

    IcyBoy: my instructions may make some of your crap not work but should remove any traces of any malware.

    TICK everything in hijackthis and fix it.

    get a rootkit revealer
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../bb897445.aspx

    get autoruns
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../bb963902.aspx

    read the docs and generally look for stuff you find suspicious and google the dll or the .exe attached to processes or services.

    learn to use task manager, and the services mmc (go to run type "services.msc") disable all non microsoft services (this may disable some printers, wireless cards, and other peripherals and antivirus software) if you are unsure GOOGLE the service name or right click on service > properties and you should see all the params it runs under.

    repair is always more difficult than starting fresh, but trying to repair this will teach you much more than downloading a pirate copy of modded windows and clicking next for 30 mins.

    Re: Trojanremover

    My advice to this guy is....
    1) stop watching so much porn, and if you must... go to sites like badjojo.com or something and keep some kind of antivirus on ... atleast avg free or something....
    Now that we got the reason and habits tidbit taken care of... haw about explaining ways to keep yourself out of this mess or rather ways to recover from a total loss with some preparation...

    A) When installing an OS on a computer for the first time... if you have a fairly large HardDrive, it would be wise to set aside a small partition of around 5- 10gb's just for backup purposes, This way when you do get a god awful virus from the hell pits of the internets... you can have a "life boat" if you will... where your important documents and data can "jump ship" o boy i love analogies that involve boats ^^

    b) Install your programs on a 2ndary Hard drive or maybe another partition if your hard drive is big enough to accommodate needed space for everyday use on a separate part. Aether way hard Drives are so cheap nowadays. . .

    c) Install your OS on its OWN partition sepperate from your backup "life boat"
    and your intended drive where you can install your junk like games and apps...

    d) Now if the need arives you can do a
    COMPLETE wipe of the OS while leaving all Your Important documents and apps intact...

    e) Now I know what your saying " But hey what about all those reg entries that those apps need to function" Well this may be a shock to some of you ... but you can backup your registry ! 0o yes i know you might have to sit down after hearing the word "registry"... anyways its simple to do....
    start => Run => regedit select your reg entries and click top left => export and save now throw that reg key back up into the backup folder after your done installing all your junk.

    Simple as that....
    PS:
    Id thought what i'd do is pretend i was one of those deaf-mutes. XD
