Thank you dokter.

So I guess you are safe?

OK, so to remove this, I have to delete each reg and file individually?? My NIS has expired and I have no funds at this time to renew. I am assuming that this thing is the reason for my multitude of problems that came about around the same time as this popped up. I don’t knw how it got installed on my comp or how to get rid of it, but when it came I also started getting fake alerts. My comp will go to the blue screen and say it is shutting down to protect my comp and then will go to windows startup screen. However, this is a loop and can be exited by pressing f4. When it clears, all docs and web pages are still there and the way I left them. It makes my comp freeze a lot too. Are all these symptoms of this one program?

Hi bWalk

Please try this

thank you so much! I am running it now. We will see if it fixes the problem… :womanindifferent:

Hi

Please keep us posted

Ok, well I installed and ran the antibot, but it only found and removed 1 problem. I was hoping this would be the one, but after letting my comp sit for about 15 min the blue screen was back. Have you got any idea what is causing this? Should I start a new thread t find this answer? Maybe it has nothing to do with the antvirxp08 prog… Hmmm… Grrrrrrr! Now it’s playing hip hop music at me and there is no music player running and I can’t find any open pop ups or pop unders. Man! I have some real issues here! Any recommendations, short of throwing this thing out the window?

Dr_Frank,

 

Obviously part of the problem you appear to have is not being able to scan with the latest Virus Definitions since you subscription expired some time ago. One solution is to do an on-line scan using Symantec's free service. Go to the following URL and select Virus Detection.

 

Hope this helps.

Sorry, Forgot to include the URL

Please do.

Also please post a link to this thread. Is easier to find back

That Online Scan will only Detect that Internet Threat on your computer.

Safe!!??  Lol, not safe, but I think I killed it!  Only time will tell…  :slight_smile:

I tried the online scan, but it never finished. It just keeps asking me if I want to install the detection tools. I click install and 20 minutes later it asks again, but never scans anything. I guess that isn’t gonna do it. Does anyone know a name for this issue or for this collection of issues, I should say. I don’t know what to do. Someone on yahoo answer seems to think it is a worm, but everybody just sees the part about the blue screen and forgets about the part where it is a fake alert and I can exit it using f4. I am at a loss for what to do. I am usually pretty good at figurung out how to cure our little ailments here, but this one has me stumped.

Hey Doc! Sorry I butted in on your thread and kinda took over. I saw the subject and hoped someone here could help me out. Please forgive me for my rudeness. No harm intended.

Hi bwalk

 

I guess the virus is still alive?

have you been able to send a sample to Symantec? That way Symantec can take care of things

yep - alive and well, unfortunately. I think it is affecting other things too now, but not sure. Could just be too much in my system. Anyhow… I have no idea how to send a sample and with my subscription being out, don’t know if they will help me. I have tried all that has been offered, with no luck.

If you have a sample you would be able to send it to Malware Submission

Besides that have you tries SuperAntspyware or Malwarebytes?

A lot of people were helped out that way 

I saw the malwarebytes thing in another thread I was browsing and followed it to see but it said somthing about paying so I left. I have no spare funds at all right now so I didn’t try it. Does it have a trial period or did I miss something?

O! And how do I send a sample? How do I get one, I guess is the first question.

Any files that you believe may be malicious can be submitted through the following link.  You will simply want to select the file(s) to be submitted and you will get an email response in return with a submission tracking number.  If the files are indeed malicious, the auto scanners from the submission process will email you telling you they're bad.
