I'd really appreciate your help if you could remove this virus for me.

Sometime I could see a file called conime.exe in the task manager but sometimes I can't. I'm quite sure that it's a virus. And recently I can't start my anti-virus software anymore. I don't know if there are any more virus on my computer.

Here is my HiJackThis log :

You need to get SP1 (or SP1a) for both XP and IE as soon as possible to help prevent further intrusions (do not get SP2 at this time).

Conime.exe is a trojan that allows attackers to access your system and should be removed. Please do a search on your system for conime.exe and give us the location(s) found.

PS -- I've deleted your other post because it looked like a duplicate of this one.

Alright, I will get SP1 as soon as possible. . . I've searched the conime.exe file on my system and there are two exe files and one pf file :

C:\windows\prefetch
C:\windows\system32
C:\windows\system32\dllcache

Should I remove them ? And could you please tell me if there are other files that shouldn't be there ?

Thanks alot for the fast reply !!

Go to the following locations and delete conime.exe:

C:\windows\prefetch\conime.exe
C:\windows\system32\conime.exe
C:\windows\system32\dllcache\conime.exe

You could delete the entire contents of the prefetch folder (but not the folder itself) if you like, in case there is anything else hidden in there. I don't see anything else in your HJT log.

After you delete all of the conime.exe files, empty your Recycle Bin and reboot into Safe Mode.

Search for conime.exe again, and if it is completely gone, reboot normally and set a System Restore point.

If you still find any instances of conime.exe, try deleting them while in Safe Mode. Do not set a Restore Point until you are sure it is gone.

Let us know how it goes and don't forget your Windows Updates.
