ok if you acutally talked normal i could try and help.

Where did u get it from. It might be a virus,

the block checker doesn't exist, it is actually a virus that you have downloaded.

this is how you remove the virus...

Step 1: Killing the processes

1. Download Sysinternals' "Process Explorer" here and install it.
   
2. Open Process Explorer and kill "csrss.exe" first.
   
3. To avoid killing the wrong csrss.exe process, look at the "User Name" column which lists who has started the process.
   
4. If it is "SYSTEM" or "NT AUTHORITY" or the likes, then it means it is the legit windows process started by Windows itself and shouldn't be killed. If it is your username/computername then it means the csrss.exe process has started up as a normal user program and thus is not legit and the fake one.
5. This is the one you need to kill...
   While still in Process Explorer, kill "block-checker.exe" if it is still there.

1. Uninstall the block checker by going to "Add/Remove Programs" in the control panel.
   
2. Go into "C:\Program Files" and delete the folder labelled "Block Checker" (where C:\ is the drive you installed Windows on) if it is still there.
   
3. Delete the "exclusion_AOL.ini", "exclusion_MSN.ini" and "exclusion_Yahoo.ini" files located in windows' system folder (C:\Windows\System).
   
4. Clean out your recycle bin to totally remove the files from your HDD.

1. Open your registry editor (Start > Run > regedit.exe) and navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" and delete the key named "block-checker".
   (For a small tutorial on this, go to this site, because deleting the wrong keys could corrupt Windows).

ahhhh thanks scott but i have tried all that its a tough one sorry everybody about the text messeging i asked my mate to write it for me is this a bit better can you understand me now thanks scott you are great XXXX

follow the instructions here:
http://messengervn.blogspot.com/2005/08/but-i-tho...block-checker.html
(basically what saralk posted. but with the link to process explorer)
and if you have any trouble, send me a private message and i'll see what i can do.

s3xy, such style of writing is, as you see, totally not appreciated on forums! Write decent English....

Also, before posting, PLEASE SEARCH the forums first...

Block-Checker
Yet another MSN Messenger based Virus


@saralk, if you quote something, quote it correctly and completely including all links, also read from where to post comes, as the original post might have been updated

@mezzanine: your post is of no use, everybody can see that it needs "translation", also SonicSam has already said the same...

@NiteMare: thanks for the translation, but as far as your advise goes, it is seriously ungrounded. Also saralk has already responded with far more detailed steps to deal with it (except the important links are missing)

@Fergy: Please link to a post on this forum instead; the post you used as source for that message. It is of no use to post a link based on a link based on link based on a link based on a post which was posted on the same forum in the first place (if you know what I mean). This because such posting on these forums can/will be updated from time to time with new info if it needs to be.

-------------------------------

I'm sorry people, but lately the help on these forums is really going down the drain. It is not only newcommers that need to read stuff before they post. Also residents need to keep on doing this intead of getting their postcount up....

-------------------------------

To end, and this means there is no need for more "advise" here is the link again where you will find the complete detailed instructions to remove the block-checker malware:

vv Click that link to read the proper instructions vv

REMOVAL OF BLOCK-CHECKER MALWARE

^^ Click that link to read the proper instructions ^^



sorry for the bluntness, but it seems sometimes it is needed

[off topic posts and chitchat posts were stripped out]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
anyways, back to the topic...

If it isn't working, state exactly what step isn't working and what you exactly did before taking this step. Be as complete and detailed as possible...

PS: since there are far too many off topic posts now, I'm going to ask to split them out so this thread keeps tidy and on-topic. So if you suddenly can't see those chitchat posts anymore, they have been moved to T&T...
