I igonred some process 659.exe, 588.exe running in the background....for sometime. Now i have a beautiful wallpaper of the virus threatening to buy frm the site(AV) or it would shut down my computer.

KIS takes too long to scan......I dont want tht.:S
I had a spanish version of NIS 2009 trial i dunno if it detected it or not since i dont know spanish.

Now i disabled all virus(its actually a trojan) process using task monitoring software.

But my taskmanager is disabled, frequent websites I visit in opera dont show up(thankfully regedit, msconfig) is opening..........I want to revert all the changes the malware has done.
 
^I think...malicious files are removed.....but when I try to open frequented websites like techenclave and orkut......i get 404 error in opera. If i do the same in explorer it downloads malicious files..

however i will scan again once more.
 
Just do dis go to system restore nd restore ur system to a prev date where dis problem didnt existed nd then run a ful virus scan on ur pc to ensure removal of d viruses nd trojans.

system restore was one of the places the trojan was hiding.......all restore points deleted.
 
The best thing to do would be to try one of these
  1. Ubuntu live cd to disinfect your hard drive - I have written a tutorial on ubuntu forums for that. I am sorry I cannot post the link as I have learnt that it is against forum rules. The last time I did that I was warned.
  2. Updated Avira and McAfee Stinger after booting from a clean UBCD4Win disc
 
This is something new.. couple of days ago my pc too got infected. (At that time I had only Zone alarm suite installed).

When things went out of control, On my second disk I installed XP -> NIS2009, Malwarebytes, Ad-Aware 2009 and ZA firewall + spyware.

Had to scan the whole system couple of times.. when it was clean then installed the same set of protection on primary disk. Did not face any problem for last couple of days. But today when I was about to check mails.. again.. it tried to send some BS mails.. although this time NIS did not allow those mails to be sent.
I have decided not to use outlook till this thing is sorted out.

* Deleted outlook profile
* Blocked outlook in firewall
* Removed IE( something was starting IE in background and it was eating 50% of CPU)
* Scanning the system again.. though nothing is found WTF:@... where is that $%#%# hiding:huh:.. hate MS for such a crappy OS and applications

I'm sorry but I don't see a rule being violated here if you were to post the link unless otherwise it was done with an intention to advertise/spam. It's perfectly fine. IINM i.e.
 
^^ ofcourse he is running windoze coz .exe files.does not matter which version of windoze he is using.
gowtham what u need to do is find out which process is causing the mayhem.What u need to do is download process explorer from sysinternals.You might have to download the whole suite and then extract the process explorer.Find out what processes are running.Identify the malicious process.Once you have done that find the executable which spawned the process.Usually the process will not be terminated.So what u need to do is try to get into safe mode by pressing f2 or f8 buttons donno exactly which one coz they are peculiar to different machines.In safe mode delete the exe file which u have identified thro process explorer.ie the full folder.

hope this helps.
cheers.
btwn install a firewall,an adware detector like spybot or adware by lavasoft and an antivirus like avast.

Duh i know he's using windows, i meant vista or win7 or xp..
if ur using vista or 7, download microsoft security essentials, update and see, its a nice and lite security suite..

As for removing the existing infections, boot in safe mode, use ccleaner to remove startup entries, run an antivirus and remove the infection..

You can also try Kaspersky, bit defender or other boot AV disks..

It was legitimate last time too, but in another forum. So if you like, visit ubuntu forums, no need to register, click on search, enter my username in the box provided (same as here), and in the dropdown select Find threads started by user. There aren't too many :)
