    This damned virus “antivir 2008″ installs itself as a “read only” .exe file. I managed to delete it by first changing its name to “junk.doc”. But by that time it had changed my registry to say that “no hard disk = c & d” (ie my HDs). It also sowed confusion by adding other malware utilities which used the white cross in a red square or circle signal to lull me into a false sense of security.

    To cap it all, my firewall etc. provider told me that they could neither stop it sneaking past their system nor show me how to remove it because it is (pseudo) legitimate comercial software.

    In future, I will always ctrl/alt/del from boot up because the best initial protection would be to stop it working immediately. One of the first things it did was to disable the Task Manager.

    OK, this site just popped open as I was surfing some random websites and I didn’t download anything. I kept trying to exit the popups but it kept on reappearing. So finally I exitted my browser and started surfing again. Everything should be fine just as long as I didn’t download anything from it right?

    OK, I just downloaded the spyware program above and it found 12 infections. However, none of them indicate any links to the ‘virus remover 2008′ program above (they’re like cookies and stuff like ad sites or something). Does this mean I don’t have it? If I did have it, the ‘virus remover 2008′ program would pop up wouldn’t it? Thanks. any help/info would be appreciated

    If these people would put some of their trickery and deceit aside and maybe divert their talents it into doing something positive,the world would be a little better ,These high tech crooks are obviously to lazy and cowardly to just go ahead and physically steal something this trick is lower than zero.Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just tar and feather them when they are caught.
