Anyone got infected by this virus?
Because I had one :/

If you were once infected, please tell me how did you fixed it

I'm thinking about following this, but I'm scared that I may do it wrong, or that info is wrong.
It infected my operating memory.

I've had an annoying Trojan that wouldn't be healed a while ago. BlargHonk got me a tool that fixed the problem for me.

I don't know if it's the same virus I got, but perhaps the tool works here.

Please give it to me D:

Please give it to me D:

Had to check my tools to find it. It was called ComboFix.
I don't exactly know the tool so I'd suggest you to talk to BlargHonk or to google some information about it before you use it. Luckily it worked for me and removed the Trojan.

Also to help anyone want to help, the virus affected my operating memory :/

First of all use normal AV programs like kaspersky.
You can download a 30 full trial version here : http://www.kaspersky.com/anti-virus_trial

Or try using SpyBot Seach & Destroy: http://www.safer-networking.org/de/index.html

You could also try Norton Internet Security, might be hard to get a trial though. Other than that the best tips is to be careful. Norton Internet Security helps you being more careful too as it warns you when you enter websites which contains viruses or have been reported by other Norton users.

Anyways, Combofix gets rid of Rootkits, not viruses.

However, because you already have a virus, I doubt it will allow you to install any anti-viruses in their current state.


I would follow those instructions for removal, secure32 isn't a real Windows sys folder.

After you get rid of it, Spybot and Avira (Free version is in Downloads)




Edit: Hawk, Super, don't count this as a necro, it was never solved.
