trojan horse dialer

[vashi]

Please can anyone help me with this problem. I got rid
of this trojan horse with my anti-virus but windows now
comes up with a red sign saying:
(windows system32\msa64chk.dll.) that it cannot find it.
Is there i way of restoring this. I have already tried
windows restore but it does'nt fix the problem.

Hi

Try these programs to check for any spyware that may be on your system:

Why the hell do you want to restore a dll that was part of the trojan?

kurttrail is right
You are getting the message cause there is a reference to the file (msa64chk.dll) in your startup
msa64chk.dll is not something you need. It's a part of the junk you removed
Now clean you startup, and you are good to go
(You don't HAVE TO clean it; it's just an annoying message

Always keep antivirus and spy removal applications up-to-date, and scan regularly.

The file windows is looking for is probably a part of the
trojan, and another part (which has not been removed) is
looking for it and giving you an error (disguised as a
windows error). Make sure you have up-to-date anti-virus
software installed and scan your pc with more than one
virus scanner. there are free ones all over the internet.
Symantec has one, Trend-Micro has one, I think McAfee does
as well.

More likey a registry entry referencing the file. It's not disguised as
a Windows error, it *IS* a Windows error because Windows is trying to
access/execute the file and it is gone. Obviously the guy's a/v program
did a half-@ssed job of cleaning the infection; it got the file but not
the settings that try to launch it, as do most a/v products when dealing
with trojan dialers, spybots and technically "non-viral" malware.

Since the OP is obviously not reading any of the replies he's gotten so
far he'll probably be whining about it here again and again...

First you remove the problem - then you want to put it back. Why?
