  • Virus on external HARD drive - SwitchFK.exe-infected Email - Worm.Win32.Nyxem.e

    Toshiba external hard drive is configured with two partitions. Main is 290 GB for backup data.
    Small partition shows as a CD drive and contains the ONSPEC program (which I don't use).

    The Shield Deluxe continuous anti-virus program to tell me there is a virus affecting a file in the small partition. The file affected (allegedly) is \Driver\SwitchFK.exe.

    The virus is supposed to be Email - Worm.Win32.nyxem.e
    I can not remove this file or even the program Onspec. Setup as a CD player gives me a message saying that the disk (the small partition) is not able to write to.

  • Windows message in sart up

    During the boot process, I get the following message is displayed:

    DLLC:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM21ZHELPER32. DLL is not a valid Windows message. Please check against your installation disc.

    I am also told that my computer is infected by Worm.Win32.NetSky. I've tired using a Netfix Win32skynet removal tool and tells me, there is nothing on my PC. I also ran a full system scan McAfee, but still have the same problem. I keep get WARNING screens popping up telling me to virus scanner complete etc. Any idea?

    At this point windows is reinstalled a viable option?  That would most likely solve your problem, but it is not a good solution if you don't have the cd to repair and have no way to back up your files.  And as for the worm.  I will try to check on the web for this response.  Looking specifically for "Worm.Win32.NetSky" it should come with some good options.

  • Infected (green shield) Security Essentials 2010 and a trojan virus

    My computer is infected with Security Essentials 2010.  It started with Worm.Win32.Netsky.  I tried the fix recommended by Mick Murphy and I encounter the following problems.  Work in SafeMode with network can't access the malwarebytes or on the website of spybot.  Message says "Internet Explorer cannot display this page".  I have tried other sites of malware remover and could access Spyware Doctor (pctools.com) recommended in a book, so I know that it is legitimate.  I downloaded the program, does restarting asked and tried to do a scan. the message says "Network Diagnostics cannot run while the window is in safe mode.  So I tried to boot into normal mode and now my desktop does not load.  Is there something more, what can I do?  Thanks for your help.

    Did you follow ALL of the instructions concerning the JUDGMENT of the ROGUE process before the scan with Malwarebytes?

    If you rebooted your system, you have not followed the information provided.

    Read the info at the link below:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-security-essentials-2010

    1. Print these instructions we will have to close each open window later in the fix.
    2. It is possible that the infection you are trying to delete does not allow you to download files on the infected computer. If you find this is the case if you follow these instructions, then you will need to download the files requested in this guide to another computer and then transfer them to the infected computer. You can transfer the files via a CD/DVD, external hard drive or USB key.
    3. Before we do anything, we have to terminate processes belonging to Security Essentials 2010 so that it does not interfere with the cleaning procedure. To do this, download the following file on your desktop.

      Rkill.com download link

    4. Once it is downloaded, double-click on the rkill.com in order to try automatically stop all processes associated with Security Essentials 2010 and other Rogue programs. Please be patient while the program seeks to various malware programs and end to them. When it's over, the black window will close automatically and you can continue to the next step. If you get a message that rkill is an infection, don't be concerned. This message is just a fake warning given by Security Essentials 2010, when it terminates programs that can potentially remove. If you encounter these infections warnings that close Rkill, a tip is to leave the warning on the screen and then run Rkill again. By without closing the warning, this typically will allow you to bypass the malware trying to protect itself so that rkill can terminate Security Essentials 2010. So, please try to run Rkill until malware is no longer running. You will then be able to proceed with the rest of the guide. If you continue to have problems to run rkill.com, you can download iExplore.exe or eXplorer.exe, which are renamed rkill.com copies and try them instead.

      Do not restart your computer after running rkill as malware programs will start again.

    5. Now, you should download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, or MBAM, from the following location and save it to your desktop:
    6. Follow the steps above to the address provided.

    Hello fixitrite,

    You have a virus, and it will be difficult to delete it in normal mode, see below:

    Try to start your system in safe mode:

    1. Restart your computer if it is running.
    2. Press and hold the F8 key after your computer powers initially on.
    3. Once you see the Advanced Boot Options menu (or beep) you can stop.
    4. Up/down arrow keys to highlight your selection.
    5. Select Mode safe mode with networking and press ENTER.
    6. You should see drivers loading, it may take a few moments.
    7. You should then be at the Welcome screen.
    8. Connect to your computer using an account with administrator privileges.
    9. Now, you download (free) MalwareBytes from here: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html?tag=mncol install, Update then do a scan of your system in safe mode, to ensure that it is indeed clean! Once the scan done remove anything it finds. Simply restart your PC to see if your problem has been resolved!

    Hope this helps you. Let us know anyway. Make it a great day!

  • Malware Removal issues/Questions

    First of all, I am secular computer. I don't know that much about the techinical stuff. I have XP Proffesional and it comes to my personal home computer (not network). I have McAfee Security Center, continuous coverage since the purchase of the computer. Shows, I am currently protected (protection of firewall etc.) and did not have to never had a gap in protection. I also have Windows Defender, but he is turned off, (not by me, but apparently by a Trojan horse in the recent past) makes sense as I have'nt noticed window updates recently. I have not tried to reactivate it.
    From 19/10/09, has received many attacks of malware/spyware via pop ups, diverted goggle searches. I started running full scans of McAfee. Each time, it was to find different typs of Trojans (Vundo, generic false Alert, Artemis, Spy Agent, DNSChanger) more have been quarantined, some fixed, some "cannot be removed.
    After an unsuccessful attempt to communicate with McAfee, I came across this web site (yesterday 10/25). After reseaching, I found that my "Windows Automatic Updates" has been disabled. After trying to reactivate it in Run-abuse, he would return to people with disabilities. I then ran the MS onecare live scan.
    It has been deleted:
    feat: JS / mult. BB (1 article)
    Win32/vundo.fa Trojan horse (6 items)
    Worm:Win32/vobfus.MD / emold.u (1 article)

    Articles "unable to clean":
    Trojan: Win32 / vundo! BN (1 article)
    Trojan: win32 / vundo! g (10 items)
    Scan summary:
    Protection - 6 problems detected, 25 items removed and cleaned.
    items that could not be scanned: 551
    551 items could not be analyzed.
    I was then able to reactivate my "Windows Automatic Updates' Run-services and have'nt had a problem 'disabled' with him since (knock wood). Butttt, I get a RUNDLL error pop now everytme I turn my computer and connection. The pop-up reads as follows:
    "error loading C\windows\system32\tayanage.dll. The specified module could not be found.
    Today (Monday 10/26), I read the thread "how to get rid of malware. I ran a scan of ESET. He finds 1 threat: 'a variant of win32/kryptic.ahr Trojan' and quarantined it. He gave me the option to remove and I did.
    My next step is to follow the instructions of Vincenzo DiRusso from his post of 09/05/09 to get rid of my problem of malicious program.
    Well that did not mention his instructions to restart my computer in "safe mode", I tried and after promting to do this, I got the "Blue Screen of Death" with the message: "a problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer. Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to ensure that it is properly configured and completed. Run chk, f (which I tried in the form of execution and chk, f could not be found) to check the alteration of the hard drive and then restart your computer. Technical information: * stop: 0x0000007b (0XF8A0F524, 0 x 0000034, 0 x 00000000, 0 x 00000000 ".")
    Is this OK to continue with malware removal steps of Mr. Di Russo without my computer in safe mode?
    I would have no worries to go protected pages (bank accounts credit card etc.) before performing this malicious software removal process?
    If I get my computer get rid of this malware problem, I have to keep my McAfee
    coverage will? I see the free Microsoft Essentials protection option. Is this better? I can run both on my computer? Or do I go with my current McAfee and Windows Defender (WD) as I had before or instead of WD, go with McAfee and something like Previx.
    Thanks in advance,
    Jack

    I do not recommend McAfee products. I recommend, for a (commercial) NOD32 antivirus, Avast or Avira (free versions available). MS Security Essentials is an antivirus/antispyware program good base. It is not my first choice, but that's OK. However, none of them doesn't help right now and you cannot install a new antivirus on an infected computer.

    You're infected with Trojan Vundo. These are often extremely difficult to clean and protected by a rootkit. McAfee is unable to do so.

    I suggest that you either get guided help to one of the specialty forums listed in the link below OR back up your data and do a clean restore OR Windows install/factory take your computer to a professional. If you go the latter route, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

    Then I ran Windows Defender scan and who says the same thing: no problem.

    But I still continued to receive this pop-up warning every morning when I log on?
