Re: removing virus...

Hi Himanshu,

This is a very vast area we're talking about.
Do you need help, or do you just want to find out more about malware removal?

Re: removing virus...

You need to know the file names and paths to delete them.
However, some files are locked because of the malware infection, in which case we have to go for kernel level deletion.
This is not possible in command prompt.

Some of the files you have attempted to delete fit the above criteria.

Try this :

attrib -R -S -H filename.ext

and press enter.

This may not work if the file is locked, in which case we may have to use special tools.

Re: removing virus...

Locked - The file cannot be deleted by the user on the system. Even if the user is an Administrator, because of the permissions set on the file by the System.

Re: removing virus...

Hi Himanshu,
As you can see in this post, the user cannot delete the file, because "It is in use by another application".
But when you look at the running processes, you see that it's not running in the background.
This is a perfect example of a locked file.
