Have trouble deleting repeated Trojan Horse virus on comput

Postby allenborder » Fri Jul 24, 2009 9:43 am

I am having trouble getting rid of a repeating Trojan Horse virus on a computer using Symantec Endpoint Protection Version 11.0.4202.75. I have done the following: performed full scan in safe mode, used Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer, disconnected computer from network, updated virus...

Try downloading other virus scanners, like kaspersky and avira, try to remove it with that, it is also important to turn of system restore, some traces of the virus can still be found in it after removal, and can thus reinfect your computer.

I had something like you too like a couple of months ago, but my virus also prevented me to update any virus scanner, it succeeded in stopping me to connect to any update server :?

After a couple of weeks i finally got the virus gone.

I downloaded a fully updated kaspersky version, and it was able to remove the virus after i turned of system restore and disconnected from my network.

Just try to identify the virus first and if the program is not able to remove it, try a specific virus removal tool for the virus.

I hope this helps, virusses can really be a fucking pain in the ass to remove, if nothing helps back up the shit you want and format the drive.

fuck shitty antivirus programs, locate the trojan emplacement (via the task manager), boot up in safe mode, & delete it yourself, then use msconfig.exe to prevent intempestive launching of the trojan by disabling it in the startup tab.

spend a week googling your problem and fixing it yourself. when your computer is all better and you've achieved a warm glow of self-satisfaction, come back and download all the user tracks and sample packs you want 8) 8) 8) 8)
