kahljorn | AVG had something like that called vcleaner. It didn't list the virus you have in particular, it did however list a few other backdoor virii. So who knows... it was on their website. | |

Jeff The Ninja | I heard that Mcafee has a free utility to get rid of some of the more Difficult viruses that other Antivirus programs cant get rid of easily. | |

I looked it up on the avg site and it doesn't even have any information for it. I'd reccomend sending them an e-mail or maybe trying another virus scanner? The one i used most recently was PC-cillin, but I dunno how "Safe" it is. As for the norton thing, maybe it needs to be removed from startup? look under msconfig. |

I also just found it in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Search Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon/Notify/avpk32/avpk32.dll Seems like it might be in a few other areas in the registry too, or at least references to it. Whatever the case may be, if I try to run most program, even something like ws-ftp, the antivirus program pops up a warning message about the trojan. |

BTW, I ran Regedit and was able to find the avpk32.dll file in the registry. It's located in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Search Assistant/ACMru/5603/avpk32.dll I didn't want to remove it from the registry yet though... not until I heard back from some of you to see what you thought about this problem. |

Trojan/Virus problem... Per Chojin's suggestion, I just installed AVG ( http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5 ) a free antivirus program that won't destroy my computer like Norton Antivirus just recently tried to. Anyway, I installed it and it found a few viruses that it removed when I ran a scan in safe mode. But it's still detecting this one Trojan that I can't seem to find or get rid of. I get the following detection notice any time I try to run any kind of program. Here's what it's saying: Quote:
I also tried to find the avpk32.dll file on my computer and it can't even find it. And to top things off, my computer takes forever to boot up now that Norton Antivirus fucked things up. I got the program uninstalled I think (thanks to a system restore) but my computer is still taking forever to boot up into windows. Any help with this annoying shit would be greatly appreciated. |
