Anyone ever get the F*ck[1] virus?

[wtf]

I was just surfing (have to admit it) a porn site, and all of a sudden my
NAV program picked up about 4 viruses. It deleted 3, but access was denied
to this one and the repair failed:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
\Content.IE5\O1AHVHT\****[1].htm


Click for more information about this threat : Trojan Horse



I've checked my register for both the directory and that four letter work
and nothing pops up. I also searched my files and folders for them, and
checked through the Windows explorer, but nothing. Anyone else see this?

Could it be a worm or spyware? I checked the Symantec message boards and
there's nothing there.

Which was a 'previously' unknown location (security through obscurity).

It (NAV) already told you what it was, a "Trojan Horse". Probably a hijacker or porndialler installation program would
be downloaded eventually if you were susceptible to its actions. Delete it.

 

[David H. Lipman]

The file name might be; "****[1].htm"
but it is NOT the; ****[1] virus !

If NAV indicated a "Trojan Horse" then that was what was found but that is a generic term
for Trojan.

Purge your Internet Explorer temporary files cache. That will take care
of your immediate problem. And switch to print media pornography.

[wft]

It's defiantly bad. If you looked for it and can't find it, there's a
good chance that your NAV program took care of it.

How can that be if a message came up that said "unable to repair"?

If you want to make

sure, do a full scan. Go to an on-line scanner if you have to.

I've always been down on those. Who wants to let some 3rd party see your
whole hard drive. That's a real good way to give away tons of info about
what you do.

You

might not be able to see it in explorer if it has hidden attributes.
You should use your explorer options (like view or something) to set
it to show all files including hidden and system files (don't monkey
with the system files).

I'm doublechecking Windows Explorer right now. Then I'm doing a virus
scan in safemode (running Win 2000 os), and after reboot will delete all
cookies and temp files (my usual 2x a day thing).

This is about the 4th time I've gotten that f*** trojan. I constantly
check my task manager to see what's running in the background, but I
guess I coudld go deeper and really run some utilities that lists every
operation running.

Do you guys recommend hijackthis? Is it really any good?

Sometimes "unable to repair" means "i'm deleting it 'cuz it's not
salvagable". So it probably just deleted it.

Wait-u-munit. You're ok to go to porn sites where they like to put
trojans and dialers on your system but you can't find a reputable anti-virus
vendor you can trust to scan your drive?

That don't sound good. Were all 4 times from visiting the same site? or
different sites? Are these sites all of the same content (porn and such)? or
were these 4 instances at random times, like perhaps something else is
auto-downloading this thing into your system?

I constantly
check my task manager to see what's running in the background,

paranoia is good.

but I

Do you guys recommend hijackthis? Is it really any good?

I like it. I also like "spybot search and destroy" and "Ad-aware". I
don't know if Hijackthis will detect that particular nasty (I'm almost sure
Ad-aware don't). These utilities are usually for ad driven software/spy
software. Your NAV is probably the best defence for things like trojans.

If you're not ablolutly sure that NAV got it, and you really don't want
to trust the on-line scanners, you can always go to another anti-virus
vendor, download their free trial, update it's patterns, then run a full
scan with it. Then you can uninstall the trial. At least you'll get
satisfaction that NAV either killed it or failed you.

Good luck and report back with results.

Well, it's in the temporary internet files. You can always delete that whole
folder (the 01ahvht one).

It's probably right.

Not me, but then I'm not a perv. heh-heh.

Either way, do the scan and slap yourself for visiting the shady side of the

I am utterly shocked!! Porn sites + David Lipman???? OY!!

*reputable* porn sites? Isn't that a contradiction in terms?

We really must find you a wife/mate/partner......whatever. (VBG)

Figgs......hmmm, think I know just the one. But you would have to give up
some of your hobbies....like fishing, lol.

 

[wtf]

hen you can uninstall the trial. At least you'll get
satisfaction that NAV either killed it or failed you.

How is Kapersky AV? Btw, I was checking my task manager and saw a file
called winampa.exe running. Now some sites say that this coud be the
MSBlast virus and others say it's just the latest Winamp agent. It's
actually in my Winamp directory.

Anyway, the fix is Symantec's fixblast.exe. For the heck of it I tried
to run fixblast.exe, but everytime I did in regular or safe mode, it
stopped and said "Fixblast.exe generated errors". The log file was
empty.

Once again, NAV didn't pick up any viruses, and I think winampa.exe is
the Winamp agent, but it's perplexing as to why Fixblast.exe wouldn't run
on my Windows 2000 os.

I'm beginning to think that one needs to do a scan using numerous AV
programs by different vendors every so often. I use about 3 different
Spyware detection programs and they all find different stuff. Pest
Patrol was the best, but my subscription ran out.

One thing I'll never understand. When these Spyware blocking programs dl
the new upgrade files, sometimes they're smaller than the previous
definition listing, indicating that they're elimination their detection
of certain items.
