damn that xp police fake “antivirus” thingy.
it was automatically installed on my pc when i was sleeping.
i have downloaded an anti-spyware program and dang..
bye xp police.>:)
If anyones interested I believe that the As*****s who took the time to write this virus have changed the name it’s now Windows Police Pro I just spent an hour getting rid of it, well I hope I did. Think jails to easy for them Public Hanging would be Better.
I can’t do a system restore.
Nothing I type in RUN works “application configuration is incorrect”.
I try to run my current anti-spyware and it’s not recognized
I try to download new anti-spyware and it won’t run
Does anyone have any advice?
Please!!
Hello to all, I too have been going step by step to get rid of this virus. It is very frustrating. I have an antivirus program that it seems to have blocked from me using. I just downloaded Spyware terminator, not sure if that is gonna work or not. I have also been doing remote access with a technician, but, there were things that he even missed. I did google and there are other things to look for like gif’s and such. Im still battling this thing!! Its been a week for me, yikes. Good luck to all of you and thanks to the ones that had the good advice
Someone please help me. I have followed the directions but this virus seems to have taken control of my computer. It will not let me access the processes necessary to remove it. It blocks everything wuth a screen that says ERROR, someone please help me and reply.
I can’t even think of who would even try to do this crap. It is low life and dirty. I have absolutely no acess to my computer and have to constantly ask for my daughter’s laptop. This is nothing but a bunch of bull.
I’ve got the XPPolice virus on my computer and apparently the version that I’ve got is on steroids, because it seems to be a lot more resilient than what others are reporting here.
I admit that Operating Systems and Virus Removal are not my specialty, but I’m a programmer in case that helps. In other words I’m not a complete nubie, but feel free to talk down to me if necessary
Regedit: I can’t open it.
TaskManager: If I open really quickly when I first log onto the computer, it will come up, but there isn’t an XPPolice.exe task. There are 10+ svchost.exe processes. I can kill a few of these via “Right Click > End Process Tree”, but they come back within 10 seconds. Others I can’t kill.
Command Prompt: If I try to open the command prompt by “Start > Programs > Accessories > etc.” a command window pops up with the following address: C:\Windows\System32\desote.exe but it disappears almost immediately and the Command prompt never appears.
Windows Explorer: I can open it. But after about 60 seconds, the entire computer locks up and I have to perform a hard reboot (hold in the power button for approximately 10 seconds). I’ve tried to delete the desote.exe file via Windows Explorer (a lot of fast clicking), but I get an “Access denied” type message. I tried to rename it (obviously that didn’t work).
McAfee: Wow I’m really glad I made that purchase
If I’m fast I can open it and start a scan, but the computer locks up after about 60 seconds and requires a hard reboot.
Safe Mode: If I try to start the computer in Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking, Safe Mode with Command Prompt, etc. I get the blue screen.
Any help that someone can provide would be greatly appreciated. I am willing to just reformat the computer, but I would like to get some files off of it first. I have an FTP server set up on another computer so if I could get some limited functionality I could move the files and then reformat.
