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.

The thief speaks! your sock puppet Leythos has done a terrible job speaking
up for you. How's that website coming Dave? doesn't feel too good does it? I
would really love to take credit for that but I can't, I don't steal. How
come you don't have the balls to speak up in the NG like you do in all those
abuse complaints you file against me. Hey guess what, my site is still up.

I don't, now or ever, speak for anyone except myself
Hey guess what, my site is still up.

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.

run/msconfig.
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

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.

Try booting into safe mode and scan again. This might prevent the
trojan from recreating itself thus can be eliminated. I also recommend
that you try Trend Micro Sysclean, scanning in safe mode. Another
alternative would be Microworld MWAV, based on Kaspersky engine. Both
are standalone virus cleaner and very effective against wide range of
malware.
