I think you can remove it with Symantec. More information on the worm here: http://tc.imlogic.com/threatcenterportal/pubThrea...aspx?ThreatID=3279 RE: HELP PLEASEEE!! by Aardvark on 01-20-2008 at 01:26 AM
Deleting temp files won't really solve anything, since it's probably got some registry files too which'll just make it keep reappearing. RE: HELP PLEASEEE!! by kezz on 01-20-2008 at 04:10 AM You can use System Configuration Utility [Start > Run> 'msconfig'] and look under the 'Startup' tab. That will tell you all of the process that load at startup. In the 'command' column, you can find the location of these startup processes, and in turn find any suspect applications that are running on startup. The directory of the suspect application will usually give it away. Anything in 'c:/documents and settings/allusers/application data' could be suspect RE: HELP PLEASEEE!! by lizard.boy on 01-20-2008 at 04:39 AM
You could try impFix, a tool which I have used on multiple occasions to remove different WLM worms. RE: HELP PLEASEEE!! by ahmetgns on 01-20-2008 at 11:30 PM
I have a program named MSN Cleaner, I used it once in such a situation and it found one worm/trojan whatever it is inside C:/Documents and Settings/All Users iirc and removed it. I am not sure the reliability of that program, so if you know it is bad, feel free to remove it from attachment. |
