Default Trojan


Picked up a nasty when opening a web site the other day and can't seem to
shake it. Am using updated CA anti-virus but it allowed the infection even
though it recognizes it but can't rid my system of it. I routinely clean out
history files and caches. I keep deleting files but it keeps recreating
them. It keeps re-establishing itself in the "start" menu in run/msconfig. I
have to "end process" of an unusual numbered process in task manager every
time I re-boot. The files that it keeps replicating are in "C/Windows" and
was "norton exe" but has now become "winform exe". Have tried Kapersky,
Panda and CA on-line scanners but no luck. Below are the CA prompts I keep
getting. Any ideas? Tom G.

Download it and post the logs to where the instructions tell you to post
the logs, and that would not be to ANY Usenet group.

How come you're not providing hijackthis from your own website any more?

Hey, guess what, the content that the complaints were file against is NOT
on your site any more - there are no working links to it and you don't
have the balls to put it back online because you know what your hosting
provider will do next.

Turn off system restore until you get rid of the trojan. When you can scan
your system and all is clean, then turn it back on.

My system restore has been turned off for months before picking up this
infection. AV can't clean infection. Just tonight my homepage has turned
Chinese. Updates for AdAware have been disabled since infection.
Re-installation doesn't help. No response to my hijack this posting.
Considering re-formatt.

Go to the registry (regedit) and search for the references to the files
norton.exe and winform.exe. Delete those references to them. The references
in msconfig will be deleted automatically at the same time. That should stop
the trojan process.

Just save any dynamic data (email etc) and reload the last image you
dumped before the onset of problems, you do ghost your system regularly?
