Unfortunately i got this dreaded malware. I don't know how to fix it. I've heard to download many things but when i d/l them to my desktop, documents, or anywhere and i try to open them the following message comes up
c:\mycomputer\"program name" is not a valid win32 application. Because of this i do not know how to fix the virus and i cannot scan. I do not have hijackthis, DAFT, Malware Byte or anything like that i do have ccleaner but that can only do so much. Also i've tried the properties>Compatability thing and it is to no avail. I've done start>run: msconfig > startup and unchcked the files of Anti-virus and yet all my google searches end up going to random sites and my desktop is still at the WARNING! win32virtu etc etc virus is found in your computer. Can someone please help me out! I really need your help because im going to start school soon and i need to finish up my essays due for my classes! |

Have you tried going into another user account and running the programs? Or try creating a new user account and trying from there.
Try to run this. Try from both accounts if needed. Download ComboFix by sUBs from one of the below links. Be sure top save it to the Desktop. Link #1 Link #2 **Note: It is important that it is saved directly to your Desktop Close any open Web browsers. (Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc) before starting ComboFix. Temporarily disable your antivirus, and any antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts. When finished ComboFix will produce a log for you. Post the ComboFix log and a new HijackThis log in your next reply. Important: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall. Remember to re-enable your antivirus and antispyware protection when ComboFix is complete.

i got this virus.. al i can say is how i got rid of it.. it was in task manager one of them called printer.exe i did a scan with spybot found the path of the virus and deleted the folder. i had to end it in task manager as u cant delete something that is still runing in task manager
then did a hijack this scan and delete the .exe virus's am no expert but maybe if you was to reset all settings and add ons on your internet that could work maybe? explorer or firefox i don't no if i had this problem as i dident need to use the net wen i had the virus/spywear as i already had the programs to use. or use a different pc to download the programs then burn to disk and use on infected pc? evilfantasy is the best person to help you with viruses/spywear

Anything related to Bleepingcomputers basically goes to a page that says this internet page cannot be displayed.
also once i downloaded this and tried to open it a message came up saying this archive has been broken or there has been ended or like this is unable to open because it is broken or osmething like that. There is a serious problem because i cannot even download stuff from the original page for example i tried downloading firefox from mozila.com and when i tried to open it it said this file is either corrupt or not from the source or it said this programs is not a valid win32 application how do i fix this! |
