I've never heard of that particular brand of Anti-Virus program. You might want to try Norton or McAfee. Or for a free one try www.grisoft.com
When you delete some viruses, they go to the recycle bin. If you don't empty the recycle bin right away, the virus re-activates. You may also have to go into the registry and remove the virus from there. This has to be done with most versions of the worm virus like MSBLAST. Do a search for the ones you have and see how they need to be removed. Jerry
~~ Hey Pontius !! TR stands for TROJAN -- you have been blessed by those sticky ones. My suggestion : Google search for CWShredder.exe and run it. This will removed the sticky entries made by those trojans in your registry. Next Google search again for HijackThis.exe and run it. Make a NOTEPAD of the result you got with Hijack and post on their web site. -- you will get a prompt answer as what to remove to clean your PC up. -- OR -- If you have XP and you have system restore "ON" ,, do a restore say a few days before you got infected.-- this will clear up everything. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Do It Right , and you will be a Happy Camper !

iff all else fails theres allways a reformat of your hard drive , then reload windows iff you know how to , that will definatly get shut of the trojans .
If u have an antivirus .. to DELETE the file, you have to use the delete functionality from the ANTIVIRUS app. Jerry746 : im being nitpicky here but.. what happens if the Recycle Bin is auto-perma-delete? Or you dont have a recycle bin?
Hi Praetor, There is a 3 step process to remove the WORM virus from Windows 2000 & XP even without an anti-virus program. Its not hard to do. I just have to find my paperwork on it. I think it can also be found at www.computing.net/windows2000. Its another forum and should be under svchost crash. Should be instructions to fix. If I find my papers, I'll post the 3 steps. Jerry
Hi guys, Here is the 3 step WORM removal process. 1)End the Trojan process: Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete once. Click Task Manager. Click the processes Tab. Double-click the Image Name column header to alphabetically sort the processes. Scroll through the list and look for msblast.exe. If you find the file, click it then click end process. Exit Task Manager. 2)Deleting msblast.exe. Click start. Click search, for files and folders. Search for msblast.exe. Once done, if it is found, delete msblast.exe in right side screen. 3)Removing changes msblast made to registry. Click Start, then run. Type regedit in the dialog box, click OK(Editor opens). Navigate to the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. In the right pane, delete the value: "windows auto update"-"msblast.exe": Exit the Registry Editor. Here are some of the other variants: Msblast.exe--Variant A Penis32.exe--Variant B Teekids.exe--Variant C Mspatch.exe--variant E Mslaugh.exe--Variant F Enbiei.exe---Variant G You need to check for each one using above guide. hope this helps someone.

Man -- with the Mblast worm -- do it right go to Symantec web site and download the FixBlast.exe tool -- is takes less then 20 secs -- and once you use it that worm is gone for good. NOW .. reading this thread -- where did this mblast worm thing start ??? -- Pontius is speaking about TROJANS.. that he could not take out . IT HAS NOTHING to do with worms. Those trojans he listed are hijackers ~~ they take control of your home page usually ~~ and the only way to get rid of them is as stated in the post following his. AVG , Nortons and the likes are antivirus and have little efficiency on trojans, and none on the hijackers. -- The Cleaner , CWShredder , Hijack This to name a few are TROJANS detectors and removers: they are the tools to remove hijacking trojans. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Do It Right , and you will be a Happy Camper ! Take Care. [/small]
After you delete the trojan by the hijackthis I advise you get an antivirus program If you want it cheap, I suggest AVG Free Ed. from Grisoft.com or get Mcafee or Nortan like me. Got the latest one this week. But I've been using AVG before n I had no problems. Hoped this helped...
Ok -- Pontius... !! Read my post ! ""Make a NOTEPAD of the result you got with Hijack and post on their web site. -- you will get a prompt answer as what to remove to clean your PC up."" Now , man i cant do it for you !! _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Do It Right , and you will be a Happy Camper ! Take Care. [/small]
Nope, some of them get into the boot sector and if you fix by reformatting you need to reinitialize the boot sector as well, and that still may not do it. In any case, given the number of people with multiple drives reformatting isn't good general purpose option since you'd have to reformat every one of them to make sure you don't have infected files remaining. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a night.

Nephilim, I hadn't heard of that program before (I've got it to play with now!) but I didn't see anything about the boot sector on the Sourceforge page. So if I were reformatting for virus related reasons I'd still probably reinitialize the boot sector with either fdisk, or more likely gdisk from the Ghost package, but as far as the partitions go it should do the job.
