I was sent here from Avasts forums, they said that you people could help me get my comp :exorcize:d
So, heres what i posted a their forums, ill say a few things at the end.
Well, where to begin, lets start with that i have Avast 4.6 home edition and its fullly updated, actually, better to list all of my virus/spyware stuff first:
Avast 4.6
Spybot search & destroy
Miscrosoft Spyware Scanner
AVG
Ad-ware SE
Now, I have been plauged fir the last 4 days with some spyware, little did i know that was only the small picture. Lately my comp has been acting up and downloading slowly (im on my notebook right now). I have Free Zonealarm firewall installed on my computer, and its been on for the past month, the settings for the firewall are high. Now, yesterday i was doing a spyware scan with Microsoft's scanner because of the spyware that was annoying me from the past few days, it finished, found 129 things, which came as a surprize because that previous monday i had nothing on my comp, anyway i deleted everything and did anoter scan, once again it found some stuff, 37 this time,i deleted them, and scanned again. This time it found only 3 things, i deleted em scanned again but the 3 things i had deleted were still there. So i said tomyself, now this is damn strange..... I loaded up avast, scanned, and nothing came up, used avg, it found a trojan, i deleted it off. I ran avast again, still nothing. So, i decided to let it slip and went about running my online game server. Now, about 3 or 4 hours later, the on access scanner reported about 3 trojan viruses. When i tried to delete them it said it oculdnt and i schedualed a boot time scan. So, when i went to bed that night i restarted my computer and let the boot time scan run. Got up in the morning and logged in...... first thing that happened was that the on access scanned spammed me with about 8 trojan visrus warnings. When i tried to delete the first one, my computer restarted itself. Now im geting mad, I have never bended over backwards to a virus, and i srue aint gona start, so i disconnect from the internet, and scan scan scan, delete delete delete anything that i found..... well, its been 2 days now, and i still can get this thing called Zolob off of my comp. Avast donest ever read the infected file (i found this file with Microsoft's scanner, it registered a bad registry key that after 5 deletions was still present, so i went and checked it out, copied the file path down, J:\WINDOWS\System32\drfgsrv.exe) as a virus when i scan it. Miscrosofts scanner called it a trojan downloader. Despite everything i have tried it wont be deleted, and i dont want to reformat my hard drive either, so can anyone help me?
i just did an online scan of that file using Kaspersky and heres the virus name:
Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Zlob.hw
i have windows XP SP2, and yes, as far as i know its the only thing left, full path is:
J:/WINDOWS/System32/drfgsrv.exe (same path a before). I dowloaded kaspersky's virus scanner and an scanning my sys32 folder right now, see if anything else can be found besides that.
Well, Kaspersky cant delete it, so im going to try a boot scan with it.
Also, wheni try to put it into qarantine it saus access denied or insufficiant rights (this account i am on is set to system admin).
i dont know if its relevant or not, but right before this all started, something calledSpyFalcon was installed on my computer from god knows where, i was looking around my gaming servers site and this message said now downloading and installing SpyFalcon..
now, with all that heres that i am having trouble with. That trojan downloaer will not be deleted for all the :hug:s in the world! i have tried using avasts scanner to do a boot sca, that didnt get rid of it, it wont quarantine, and i can delete it. Also, that SpyFalcon thing is starting to worry, me, the guy who reffered me here said that SpyFalcon ment big trouble...... and i also wanna know how all this #!@* got by my router and zonealarm, cuz my routers firewall is set to normal and zonealarm is on high. I really could use some help here lol, i dont wanna reformat because im running a online game on this comp, would put me back a couple of weeks if i had to reformat.
