• How can I get rid of the Trojan virus (e.tre456_worm_osx)?

  Safari said that I have a Trojan virus (e.tre456_worm_osx). A solution at a given time was to install and run Malware bytes Anti-Malware program, but my Mac desktop computer only works OS10.6.8, and the bad-ware program does not support the OS10.6.8.  All solutions?

  Safari has no ability to detect malware. What you need to is-scam webpage. Delete Safari history and data from the Web site and/or restart Safari while you hold down the SHIFT key.

• Safari is locked with"Trojan Virus".

  Apparently, I have somewhere went wrong the other day.  Now, Safari displays just a warning box telling me computers blocked a Trojan horse and call a number 844 to help get rid of it.  About 6 of them on the screen, and if I do anything in Safari, I get 3 or 4 more.  Does not seem to do anything else, or that affect other programs.  Any advice?

  Choose force quit from the Apple menu, close Safari and then run it with the SHIFT key is pressed. If the message reappears, disconnect the computer from the Internet and close the tab Popup came.

• Malware scanner found hundreds of viruses. What to do now?

  Hello

  my friend has a laptop Toshiba, model no. PSAK2E - 001003KS. She came to tell me that she can you use his cell phone and when I started the laptop, it says hard drive failure and it still allows me to start window.

  When I checked it didn't even run anti virus, so I scanned the virus with a malware scan, the scan has found hundreds of viruses even in about 10 minutes. But the thing is that the laptop shut itself down before the finished scan, and everytime when I start it, it turn off by itself after a few minutes of the window being initialized.

  Do you think that the cause is malware? But no idea how I can clean while I can not even finish the scanning?
  Thx a lot...
  Appreciate it

  Don t waste your time to scan the HARD drive. Reinstall the OS and restore your laptop to a friend with your own OS preinstalled.

  Believe me, it's the best thing you can do.

• Active, vs running Virus/Trojan, Virus found in a file - is there a difference?

  Hello
  I have a question to detect an ACTIVE virus/malware/trojan, vs detect a file containing a virus/malware/trojan and if there is a difference.

  For example:

  I ran an a malwarebytes antimalware and a scan avira scan and found nothing on my XP machine.  I then ran the windows security scanner and found a Trojan horse relatively bad guy who he only partially removed.  then I looked at the newspaper and he told me that the file - it happened to be a .exe that was marked in a .pdf file - neither of which I had never opened on the computer.  This infected file is on a second hard drive on the machine, to basically what amounts to a backup copy of the files of a computer very elders who has long been retired from service.

  (1) thus, even if there were files on my machine which contained this nasty Trojan horse, but simply because the Trojan horse was detected in the file, that necessarily means that the Trojan horse has been really active and running and cause trouble?  That's why avira and malwarebytes Miss?

  (2) this sense, for example, when you go to the encyclopedia ms for info on the Trojan horse in question, the instructions talk about how this will affect C:\windows\system32... [some file here], but my scan pick up the Trojan horse in a file that is located on a second hard drive on my machine, that I brought to an old drive.  What I'm trying to say is that the safety of ms scanner did not find the trojan in the files and the registry locations where it 'should be active"according to microsoft, but rather he fundamentally in a .exe on one of my drives of data that just a dumpster of storage.

  (3) Finally, if a .zip file is found to contain malware/trojan, etc, it is a threat having this .zip archive on the compjuter - as long as she remains closed?  For example is it possible for a Trojan horse found during analysis, within a .zip, a problem file cause as long as .zip has not been opened?

  Thank you very much for any help to clarify these issues for me!

  Essentially, what you say is true. If you have an email that contains a virus if you click on the attachment to open it, you have the virus on a file on your computer. However, you have not activated the virus because you do not click the active file.

  So if I did a scan, some anti-virus can detect the file simply because it's there, but my computer is not infected, as I click on the link to the file. This is also why you will see a warning that does not open an email with a certain title like by clicking on the link will start the download.

  I hope this helps.

• Get a message from Zonealarm saying it has found a virus, is iehost.exe a virus?

  When you run Internet Explorer, I get a message from Zonealarm which tells me that it has found a virus. This virus is iehost.exe. What is and how to remove it if it is not a Windows program?

  IEHost.exe is an advertising program. This process monitors your browsing habits and distributes the data to the author for the Analysis servers. This also leads advertising popups. This process is a security risk and should be removed from your system.

  It is not a virus but should be considered spyware and a Pup (potentially unwanted program).

  Let your AV remove it even if it does not harm your computer, you do not want to be spied on.

• Safari has been hijacked by ads (javascript)

  Safari has been hijacked by the ads. I rooted out launch launch demons, agents, deleted all the data of the Web site, additional extensions (adblock, clicktoflash, trafficlight) and the problem persists. The only thing that stops it is disable javascript, but it returns if I activate again. The words that should be plain html are converted into links Hypertext/rollover and they ALWAYS display an ad of "Top case" no matter where I click on the screen, they open an ad. I called Applesupport, and their only solution was to leave Javascript disabled or communicate with Java. But Java only pay support. Someone at - it suggestions? I'm at my wits end here.

  You may have installed ad-injecting malicious software ("adware").

  Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

  Save all data first.

  Some of the most common types of adware can be removed by following the instructions from Apple. But before you follow these instructions, you can try an automatic removal.

  If you are not already running the latest version of Mac OS X ("El Capitan"), update or upgrade in the App Store you could adware to automatically remove. If you are already using the latest version of El Capitan, you can still download the current update of the Apple Support downloads page and run it. Still, some types of malware will be deleted, not all. There is no such thing as the automatic removal of all possible malware, either by OS X third party software. That's why you can't rely on software to protect you.

  If the malware is deleted in your case, you will still need to make changes to the way you use your computer to protect you from new attacks. Ask if you need advice.

  If the malware is not automatically deleted, and you cannot remove yourself by following the instructions from Apple, see below.

  This simple procedure to detect any type of adware that I know. Disabling is a procedure distinct and better still.

  Some legitimate software is funded by advertising and may display advertisements in its own windows or in a web browser while it is running. It's not malware and it may not appear. In addition, some Web sites display advertising intrusive popup that can be confused with adware.

  If none of your web browsers work well enough to carry out these instructions, restart the computer in safe mode. Allows to temporarily disable the malware.

  Step 1

  Please triple - click on the line below on this page to select it, and then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents

  In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + v press return. Open a folder named "LaunchAgents", or you will get a notice stating that the file cannot be found. If the file is not found, proceed to the next step.

  If the folder opens, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected. Please don't skip this step.

  There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. If necessary, enlarge the window so that all the content show.

  Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "take a screenshot of a window." An image file with a name starting in 'Screenshot' should be saved to the desktop. Open the capture screen and make sure it is readable. If this isn't the case, capture a small part of the screen indicating that what needs to be shown.

  Start a reply to this message. Drag the image file in the editing window downloading. Alternatively, you can include text in the response.

  Leave the case open for now.

  Step 2

  Do as in step 1 with this line:

  /Library/LaunchAgents

  The record which can open up will have the same name but is not the same as in step 1. In this step, the folder does not exist.

  Step 3

  Repeat with this line:

  /Library/LaunchDaemons

  This time the file will be called "LaunchDaemons."

  Step 4

  Open Safari preferences window and select the tab 'Extensions'. If the extensions are listed, post a screenshot. If there are no extensions, or if you cannot launch Safari, skip this step.

  Step 5

  If you use Firefox or Chrome browser, open the list of extensions and do as in step 4.

• How to remove a Trojan virus

  I opened Safari and immediately he began by a screen of loading with a pop-up window and a voice saying: "please contact this number" I forced Safari leave immediately and have an anti virus scan and it came with 7 virus - namely VBA:Downloader - AOV, others were the same, but different three-letter.  Anyone know how to remove the Trojan virus. The work computer use AVAST for mac as anti virus, and I do not know how to remove them.

  ClamXav lets you remove them, or if you know where are the files that contain them, remove them in the Finder.

• Equium L40 very slow and Windows Defender found a Trojan horse

  I was wondering if you could help me with a situation.

  Turned my laptop on and Windows Defender found a Trojan, so I chose all clear. Then it arrived 5 minutes later and I pressed on delete everything again.

  Afterwards my internet is incredibly slow and often freezing.
  Opening files and folders often locked up but I could still click on the red X if it took 30 seconds to close after that I clicked on the X.

  I get now random pop ups not even on the internet.

  Do you have any suggestions?

  Thank you.

  Hi Kieran

  Have you tried different antivirus software?
  I would recommend this. I use a software called Antivir freeware antivirus and it is nice.
  It of free and you can download it from various internet sites.

  In addition, you could use an Ad-aware to kill this Trojan horse. It of also for free and maybe it could be useful too.
  Google just to download it for free.

  If you won't be able to remove the virus from your system by using programs like Antivir, antivirus Norton antivirus, etc. and then use your Toshiba Recovery CD.

  I think this should help.

  Good bye

• Laptop thermal overheating found the Trojan

  My laptop 2000-41OUS began to close with a thermal overheating BIOS message. It sounded as it was put to the test, running loudly. I've learned to control programs and of course, many have been installed I have no download. I removed them and still close. Finally found a Trojan and cleaned to Symantec. The race so sweetly now I can't hear it. I'm afraid that overheating may have damaged the fat layer that protects him. I should take it to a computer shop and what should they do?

  Hello CatLoraine,

  I can certainly understand your concern. There is usually no need to redo the thermal compound, thermal paste or a poorly mounted radiator is the culprit for overheating. If the laptop isn't overheating now so I wouldn't worry on this subject.

  You can monitor the CPU to increase temperature while using it to see where it is located in HWMonitor is a good and free to use. Install only the Bit version for your system (32 or 64-bit) http://www.hwinfo.com/download.php

  This way you will have a good idea how hot it is actually done.

  But if it makes feel you better, you can certainly take it to a technician looking at him.

  Really, I would be more concerned by what you have found the infection that caused the overheating.

  Honestly, realize that using the malware removal software can not 100% guaranteed a clean system nor can it correct any damage was left of malware. Especially if you are not known in the removal of malware.

  If its possible, I would consider reloading Windows in the factory for a peace of mind.  And to all least, recovery disks has not been burned yet, if now.
