yeah even my friends PC has been hacked by a similar virus

every time he tries opening a secure site in IE..

he gets the following message:

hacked by godzilla....

no secure pages are opening.

i suggested him a format and fresh windows installation as the best option..

instead...of goin crazy trying to remove it..and u never know if any of ur personal info is being traced..

i think u should go for a format and reinstall u r windows.

and dont forget to backup all u r data from the system drive to a external source or a non windows partition..
 
Instructions from the site:

About the virus :

The name of the virus is W32/AHKHeap , It basically creates a folder with the name heap41a in C drive that will be disguised as system folder with hidden attributes enabled and copies all its contents in that heap41a folder.The running process that is responsible for this is svchost.exe and it will be spawned under user name.The virus will even make a entry into your registry so that it can run every time the system is started . This spreads mostly through pen drives .

How to get Rid of this :

Most of the antivirus leave this virus unnoticed . I personally tried 3-4 antivirus on this . None of them detected it. So you have to remove it manually .

*

Go to your task manager by pressing ctrl + alt + del .In that go to processes tab .

*

In that look for svchost.exe . You might find more than one of them . In that look for those who have user name as your login name of computer and end those processes .

*

Now open My ComputerIn the address bar, type C:\heap41a and hit enter. It is a hidden folder, and is not visible by default.Delete all the files in this folder .

*

Now go to Start –> Run and type Regedit , Go to the menu Edit –> FindType “heap41a” here and press enter. You will get something like this “[winlogon] C:\heap41a\svchost.exe C:\heap(some number)\std.txt”Select that and Press DEL. It will ask “Are you sure you want to delete this value”, click Yes. Now close the registry editor and you are done .

Precaution :

Before inserting any kinda pen drive in your pc , just delte the autorun.inf file in it and delete any .exe files that exist in it .

Possible, but the virus demanding you use IE makes me think it was via the net. Course whoever made those discs could have got it via the net too :)
