# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.

# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host

127.0.0.1       localhost

Hmmm thats exactly what i've got too. I do have the w32.gaobot.azt virus its in quarantine under the file name videoons32.exe i can see it right now but yet it hasnt altered the host file. any ideas why this is?

should i just continue onto the next stage of clearing this virus now?

toddy may i just say thank you so so much for your help tonight i really do appreciate it you've been great work.

unsure of what to do next though now

Also gone onto the next stage . ive gone through regedit and through to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

all i have in the right pane is 'default, AVG, Messenger 3, overnet, p2p networking and tkbellexe

i do not have "Windows Video Drivers" = "videons32.exe"

But yet i do have the virus its in quarantine. ive deleted it twice from quarantine but its returned. that means i need to get rid of it. but i cant.

any ideas at all people?
