Another West Yorkshire Police Virus hit

Hi,

 

I got hit by the West Yorkshire Police Virus Yorkshire police virus last night.

I’m running Win XP home edition.

I have AVG (yeah sorry) which I run in safe mode as it doesn’t cause the screen lock message, and it found an a Trojan Generic27.bjmg  which it put in its virus vault.

Needless to say, as I’m on this forum, it didn’t fix it, and I’m guessing that was another issue...sigh

 

I’m currently not at the infected PC but as far as I could see, none of the files I looked at are encrypted. Is this something the virus continues to do each time the PC is booted ( is safe mode or otherwise ?)

 

Anyway after reading through the other threads here on this virus I get the impression that I shouldn’t copy the clean-up procedures given to other people.

So can anyone help in my case ?

thanks

Stu
