Hi. A virus appeared on my computer a few days ago and I've not been able to get rid of it, yet. In fact, I think it's expanded and let in a lot of other viruses, dyfuca and elite toolbar among them.
AVG, Adware and Spybot Search and Destroy all seem to clean things up until I reboot, at which point they all come back. I got the ETremover by SimplyTech, which claims to do the right thing where others will not...but it failed the reboot test, too.
I am worried that they will eat away at my machine and cause real damage if I keep rebooting and letting them return, inviting more malware along the way.
Since all the tools (Adware, Spybot, AVG and ETremover) seem to at least be able to give me a clean session so long as I don't reboot, I've decided not to reboot my machine until everything's solved.
Problem is, I can't seem to get on-line anymore, which I'm guessing is a side-effect of one of the malwares' unhappiness with being removed.
After running those free anti-virus apps, I looked at windows\system32 files that had dates up to when the virus activated (3/30). Some files are definitely bad (like bling.exe which none of the anti-virus stuff removed for some reason) but I am not sure of the others. I'm guessing the names that seem jumbo-ed up (like 2p2nqrd4.dat) are auto-generated and are probably bad stuff? I've moved them all to a flash drive so they're off my system but I am worried I won't be able to reboot since a couple of the files may not be viral - they just have date stamps that is suspiciously from a couple of days ago. Could they have been infected? The files are: msvcp71.dll and winbd32.exe. Should I leave them? That is, will I have a problem if I remove them?
Also, I did a hijack but cannot easily decipher the log. I'm guessing the O4 qhywaaf.exe is bad...? Are the O10's and O20's all bad? Can anyone help?
I am on a Windows XP Tablet op sys, my laptop being a Fujitsu T3010 tablet computer.
I just launched my little startup company a few days ago and have a lot of things to tend to so the timing for this is really bad! :cry:
Thanks so much for any help!!!
