i'm infected with lzx32.sys

karpersky and ADAWARE are not able to kill it...

how can i do?

 

[DatabaseBen]

since it's a .sys file
you might to operate
from safemode instead of normal mode.

my guess is that if it is a virus
as you say, then you are not alone
and there's likely lots of info on it
via google.

but microsoft's "onecare" might
be a good start. it can be ran from
microsoft.com

That's a joke !

OneCare ios NOT a good start and it is the poorest of anti virus products on the market. I
surely doubt it could handle this Haxdoor or Goldun Trojan.

Yes, it could hurt.

OneCare is a fully installed anti virus and FireWall application. It imbeds itself deeply
in the OS and can interfere with third party applications. Due to OneCare's poor catch rate
in malware, it can also cause a False Negative syndrome. That is one thinks they are safe
becuase nothing is found. On tests I have performed, Microsoft AV software has caught as
little as 40% of the sampling.

In this case a removal utility is FAR BETTER than a fully installed application.

If a fully installed anti virus solution is warranted, Kaspersky or NOD32 are strongly
suggested.

I know the author Marckie of the HaxFix utility and it is specifically designed for the
Haxdoor/Goldun families of malware. Certain families of malware are *best* removed by
specialty malware removal tools that vendor applications. This includes the
Vundo/Virtumonde family as well as the SmitFraud family.

i'm glad to hear that your
opinion has support and I will
mentally form a link remembering
your research.
