I was downloading a file and Xp windows 2008 installed itself on my pc and I uninstalled it but it keeps coming back. I ran spydoctore it deleted (trojan gaslide b) Xp windows 2008 but when I restart my pc it comes back. I've also tried zonealarm, ad aware, trend micro none work. My desktop background is blue and contains a message saying "warning, spyware is detected on your computer." I really need help because my computer is really slow now.

moved to correct forum as not an all others topics issue. look in your msconfig\startup as most likely there besides maybe in programs\startup.
Hi dymx, Download and run => remove-windows-antivirus-2008 Post back and let us know if it worked and if you have any other problems. 2OG
did you check in msconfig\startup? when you click start, you'll see the program & lefthand side, click on it & uninstall it. have 2 customers with that program & that is how i got rid of it by uninstalling it & removing from msconfig\startup. also look in your programs folder thru windows explorer & delete it there.
Did you do 2oldgeek's instructions in safe mode? You say that it is Xp Windows 2008? From your symptons and your hijackthis log, it would say that it sounds a whole lot more like Malware Protector 2008. Try the instructions and websites on this thread: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/675505 Also, you can fix these entries: O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {4E7BD74F-2B8D-469E-CCB0-B130EEDBE97C} - (no file) O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [lphc38pj0ee5j] C:\WINDOWS\system32\lphc38pj0ee5j.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SMrhc78pj0ee5j] C:\Program Files\rhc78pj0ee5j\rhc78pj0ee5j.exe Best Regards
Hello I whanted to know if you guys could help me on this one pls. I have a trojan on my pc that's called the same way but, the effects are different. It made: - Removed my C drive from the system, including shortcuts and everything else from it. Luckly i have the Windows installed on the E drive. - Added 3 new icons. - I can't go into google, it will not let me. - It replaced my windows clock with words that say "virus found" or something like that. - It somehow disabled the windows genuine tool because it now says my OS isn't genuine. - It removed most of my entries on the start menu, the ones on the right side ( my computer, control panel and so on ) are gone! - It keeps making a pop up saying that i have a virus on the machine and if i whant to visit the site to get the tool to remove it. My antivirus it the AVG 8 free edition ( can't afford one ) it will not remove it, not even in safe mode. Can someone pls help me? The data on my hard drives is too important for me to format the machine.
do a system restore to before the problem started as that is what i had to do with a customer's laptop this morning. ran spybot s&d & found 3 spywares related to that problem & got rid of them. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download2471.html
Hi ddp, tks for the reply I've tried that without success, the trojan had already done too much damage, and brought some smaller virus with him. I ran spy bot ( gotta love that program, free and effective ), had a look for some way to manualy delete it but, it was too late. It did give me some time to backup some of my files, almost all of them actualy, but i had to format the drives... The virus the trojan applyed on the pc damaged the OS too much. Tks for the help just the same, and congrats for this forum, it's always good to know it's a place to go and ask for help with these things. Very well done guys
