A family member said their computer was blue screening.. Got this great little yellow popup saying the computer is infected and to click to protect your machine from spyware. Okay, thow Avg on there and ready to go.. Nope, AVG will not start after installed. Alight, will try Avast, nope the virus kills it. Though in Hackthis to check it out and the virus deletes it. Would someone just take this morons who are writing the virus out behind the wood shed for a little spanking? This is getting too costly in time!

Another way to get rid of it without putting it in another machine is to get something like Ultimate Boot CD for Windows and run your antivirus from that CD. That CD has proven invaluable to me for troubleshooting and rescuing dead or dying machines.....

Spanking? Spanking? How about putting them in a little red dress, lipstick, and heels, and dumping them in the nearest maximum security prison? How about burying them in a fire ant nest? How about mounting their heads on pikes outside the castle walls as a warning to others?

I'd second the UBCD route - its excellent! A bit time consuming to make in the first place, but once you have the CD its invaluable! You can easily update it's virus definitions and burn another with the latest protection. Just boot from it without having the virus interfere and you can nuke it once and for all! The CD also contains loads of recovery tools which also prove invaluable.

Works for me :-D. I've only had to clean up after a virus infection once, but that was enough. I had to buy a new hard drive for a clean install, so that I could preserve the old one to recover my archived e-mail and such. I also spent about a week restoring my machine to running condition. I probably lost somewhere between $1000 and $1200 total, in terms of time and hardware.

Just make sure its not a prison in Belgium ;P
And why would that be? rather than paying the Dutch people for hosting forced tourists, we have found a way to solve the problem for free. Thnak you Moroccan prisons. :laugh:

Hey - I came home last night and not only were the virues on my machine kicking off anyone they didn't like, they'd ordered in pizza and were sitting on my couch finishing off the last of my beer. Something has to be done. As soon as I can get myself out of my basement. Help?

Consider that your family member should be punished for allowing the virus to be installed.

A couple of days back Avast upon boot-time scan caught some trojans and took care of them. I felt releived until i saw some suspicious processes (in Task Manager) still running. So I had just the names of these exe's and wanted to know their location. These were communicating with some junk websites (could see them in Avast's Web shield or Internet shield ...don't remember). A little bit of Googling and I struck upon SysInternals' ProcessExplorer with which i could trace the path to these exes and subsequently deleted them and deleted their Startup config from Registry. Phew....

I had an infection on Monday. The only thing that cured it was a Vista System Restore, to the morning before I got infected.
