well i just want to tell you the virus you have takes more than one step
![]() (Note Programs i tell you to download are all good for your system =] just incase your mom asks why) but well we'll continue alright , Listen and read carefully here these are step by step and should be followed as listed or removal will not work. Please download the trial version of Ewido Security Suite here: http://www.ewido.net/en/download/ Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files. Do NOT run a scan yet. Please download Nailfix from here: http://www.noidea.us/easyfile/file.php?dow...050515010747824 Unzip it to the desktop but please do NOT run it yet. Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following: 1) Restart your computer 2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8. 3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear 4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode. For additional help in booting into Safe Mode, see the following site: http://www.pchell.com/support/safemode.shtml Once in Safe Mode, please double-click on Nailfix.cmd. Your desktop and icons will disappear and reappear, and a window should open and close very quickly --- this is normal. Then please run Ewido, and run a full scan. Save the logfile from the scan. You are also infected with the Peper Trojan Virus Removal Instructions: To remove this program we need to download a special tool: 1 Download PeperFix from the following location: PeperFix 2 Save the file on your desktop. 3 Double-click on the file to run it. 4 Reboot and do the same process again. Your computer should now be clean of the Peper Trojan. Next please run HijackThis, click Scan, and check: F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe Find this file when you do a system scan with HiJack This by placing an check or X next to its name. Close all open windows except for HijackThis and click Fix Checked. Restart your computer in normal mode and please post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan. This is just the first part we'll continue the rest either tommorow or when you have time =] if your worried that you can trust me well =] im a spyware/virus specialist in a different forumn just in case!! =] |
