| Hi,
|
| My Spyaxe problem appears to have been corrected. SpySweeper showed that I
| had several adware items again last night: SpyAxe, SpyAxe Fakealert and
| Trojan-downloader-zlob. So I ran SpySweeper after upgrading to the latest
| definitions file and deleted the adware items. No more pop-up balloon or
| icon in the task tray. Re-booted several times, with no problems. I did
| this with my Internet connetion disabled. Next, I ran SpySweeper several
| more times, with no adware being found. Then, I (hesitantly) enabled my
| Internet connection again--no problems.
|
| Ran Ad-Aware SE which showed a bunch of malware-items in my registry;
| quarantined those. Everything still works. Fingers crossed, of course...
|
| Many thanks to everyone for your input!
And your version of of Sun Java is the latest ?
Since you had one Downloader Trojan, you may have other Trojans or virsues that SpySweeper
won't find.
If you had applied my SmitFraud.exe tool, you would have permed a McAfee anti virus command
line scan of your computer.
Please use the following tool and and use the McAfee module.
Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe
To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close
Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }
NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.
C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal Mode.
This way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the PC.
You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode [F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.
When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive PDF help
file.
