So, reinstalling is a PITA but honestly I'd recommend it at this point. You can never be sure a trojan is really gone. The symptoms might be, but trojans generally try not to have obvious symptoms. It could still be there. It's like Chicken Pox, which can hide out in your body for decades and reemerging as Shingles. At least you can reset your operating system and start fresh.

Just MHO, but I wouldn't trust a computer that had been owned if the OS hadn't since been reinstalled.

Yeah but not instead of it being the virus's fault for you computer being lame it's your computer's fault for being lame.

sorry to bump this again, but i just wanna give you a congrats on it finally working

sorry my guide didn't help... i was soooo sure it'd solve your problem but I guess virus makers have gone another step ahead since my own incidence. >_<

Racenilatr: reinstalling windows does wonders! you still get to keep all your stuff but it'll completely wipe and renew everything else in the roots. the first time i ever got a virus i re-installed windows... in fact, i haven't reformatted this desktop for over 5 years now (eee... it's gonna die soon >_>)

happy ending!!~

Ouch, that virus just sounds insane from your description of it. I've only reinstalled Windows on my machine once, because I had accidentally messed with something in regedit.

By the way, this reminds me of when I installed a Sony Vegas plugin (.exe) which, unfortunately, contained a virus. I installed it too quickly and didn't even think about scanning it. It created a fake "c:\program files\services.exe" which was trying to access the internet to do something bad to my poor little computer.

The funny part was, Windows Firewall was blocking all of its attempts to access the internet. I saw the fake "services.exe" in the Task Manager, but I couldn't stop it because it was "in use." So i just used FileAssassin to actually delete it.

I didn't consult with a single antivirus site or run the 4 virus scanners I had on the computer. That virus = fail.
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.

In the future you should post on a Malware Removal forum, malware wont be removed by any scanner programs listed here(with the exception of MBAM in some cases)
That would be an ecumenical matter
