How to find and delete a file in Windows XP or Vista?
March 24th, 2007 by Brian
Please forgive me if you have already known about this. I put the instructions here because people are always asking.
- From Start –> Search, then click on “For Files and Folders…“
- From “What do you want to search for?” list on the left, click on “All files and folders”
- Type the filenames on the search box, and choose the “Local Hard Drives” (normally, it’s C: drive)
- Click on “Search“. That’s it!

Ok when it doesn’t find the files in search THEN what?

Brian Says
John,
I assumed that you were talking SpyLocked. In this case, you need to know that SpyLocked keeps changing over time so you need to look at the new “dll” that added to your machine. Just check the removal instructions and the comments, I believe it’s been mentioned how to detect and delete the infected new dll’s.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

My spysweeper removed spylocked, but the icon is still on my toolbar. How can I get rid of it?
May 4th, 2007 at 8:54 pm
John Says
I have most of the junk removed associated with SpyLocked. My home page will load now as it should, but I still have the flashing alert in the system tray (a popup show there) and another popup window will appear every now and then. I have deleted everything I can find that is associated with this crap and have also run different versions of spy ware removal tools. What am I missing?

Jolle Says
In my case the name of the file was xouce.dll
I had some problem to delete it so I did the following.
I renamed it to xouce.doc, put it on the desktop, restarted the cpmouter and after that it was possible to delete it
May 6th, 2007 at 6:37 pm
john Says
I tried renaming but get access denied message. Any other ideas?
May 13th, 2007 at 2:17 am
Jay Says
I had the same problem as Jolle and the same solution worked for me as well. Changed it from .dll to .doc and moved it. After restart it was nothing to delete.
Only difference was my problem file was uimcu.dll

Hey, this is a nasty little bugger, been tryin to delete it for last 19 hrs now… yes i ahve been on that long, ok so the dll file is different for everyone, how do i find which one it is for me? then once i do how do i get rid of change to doc and delete?
Jun 19th, 2007 at 7:55 pm
nick Says
i have the same question as john… all the .dll’s are different.. and i need to get this off my toolbar before my cpu really starts to slow down
Jun 20th, 2007 at 9:49 pm
nick Says
how do i find the .dll name?
Jun 20th, 2007 at 9:51 pm
rick Says
To find the .dll name, I followed the instructions given on this page and be sure to include Jolle’s instructions, then I went to the page that listed the possible spylocked .dll’s and inserted each one and did a search. I started with the new ones and worked backwards and found it in the second try. good luck
Jun 26th, 2007 at 7:31 am
Christopher Says
Because the .dll is “in use” you have to delete it in safe mode. Use either the command prompt or Windows safe mode.
For the command prompt do the following
type cd\
type dir /s
the “/s” searches the entire drive including sub directories.
then type del to get rid of this little beast
You see knowing DOS is still important. If you were a client, I would charge $45 per hour for this. A real money maker!

fumi Says
I cant find any files associated with the virusprotectpro spyware, my problem is, its showing an icon in the taskbar, and with clicking the icon ie7 opens and “http://www.virusprotectpro.com/?aff=1012″ site comes, and it uses almost 99% cpu, so i have to kill “explorer.exe” from taskmanager. But how can I get rid of this ? I deselected all the *.exe files from the startup (by msconfig), though the icon exists after booting.
Any help or suggestions ?

I too have spy shredder on my computer. the bugger is annoying and hard to remove. it also keeps popping itself into my System Tray and it gives me alerts every 5 minutes - yep - ANNOYING ;o)
has anyone tried bleepingcomputers.com? Is it a trusty site? has it helped anyone?
looking for people with experience specifically with SPY SHREDDER.
XP ViSta says: SpyShredder, also known as Spy-Shredder, is counterfeit anti-spyware / anti-malware software. SpyShredder usually installed itself onto your PC without your permission, through Trojan, virus and fake software. Spy Shredder will display fake security alerts or notifications to trick user to buy the paid version of Spy Shredder. It is very important to remove all the components of Spy Shredder and all the malware and trojans that it might have come bundle with (such as zlob.trojan, trojan.vundo and Trojan.Downloader)

Shamen Says
Thanks Jolle. I had AntiVirGear similiar issues as noted here, grayware, adware, call it what you want. Friggin annoying taskbar reminder. TrendMicro would not clean this for me, and their support department said it was a “legal issue” to have its software clean off adware. uh, think I chose the wrong program!
Looking for vusxqm.dll Was unable to unregister or delete. So renamed, and voila. Good luck everyone.

Hey Guys(And Girls)
I need a bit of help here. Im having similar problems to the other people posting here. I’ve got toprates.dll on my computer, and i think thats all. I’ve attempted to rename the file, but i was unable to due to the fact that it is in use. I can’t delete it either, for the same reason earlier stated. For those of you farther behind than me, i do have some tips.
1. Check your registry by going into start/ run/ and type in regedit. That will bring up the registry editor. Press ctrl F to search. Search for the file names you will find using the program(Free)in number 2
2. Download SpyHunter 3. You can scan, but you can’t delete. You’ve got to register to have the ability to do so. However, it does say the file location, so you can begin to remove all this junk yourself. It might be easier just to by the software though…
If anyone has anything that may be helpful to me, please please please please please post something here. I hope I’ve been of some help to a few of you.

Hey, I’m back again, this time with a healthy computer. Try the stuff in my previous post, and if that doesn’t work, i’ve got something that may help. Use the windows system recovery program. When you reboot your computer, it should give you the option to go into safe mode, or system recovery mode, blah blah blah. In the system recovery mode, your computer enables you to select a previous date, and restore the settings to how it was that day. For me, i only had to go back two days. I may be more for you. You can also access this system recovery mode by rebooting, entering safe mode, and it will proceed to ask you whether or not you wanted safe mode, if you click no, it will bring up the system recovery program. It took me about ten minutes, but i guess it could vary alot, because your computer may have a lot more data to restore. I hope i’ve been of some help. Write a response if it works or if you still need help.

This is what worked for me, I had the toprates.dll:
To find the .dll problem:
Start>My Computer>Local Disk>Windows
In the windows file, right click to “VIEW” “DETAILS”
Then right click to “ARRANGE ICONS BY” and click “MODIFIED”.
This will arrange all the icons so you can find the problem .dll file according to the date and time you started having the problem. Mine was easy, it happened 15 minutes ago.
To delete the .dll file:
Mine could not be erased by clicking on it because it said it was being used by another person or something liek that. I tried moving it to my desktop and I tried renaming it, none of that worked.
So… I restarted my computer and held the F8 key down. I selected restart in safe mode with networking, then redid what is listed above. I found the .dll file again in safe mode, then right clicked on the file and selected delete. I then restarted the computer and everything is fine.
Hopefully that works for you guys as well.

Brad Says
Ben, i have the same problem you did, and i just now found this posting, i already did spyhunter 3 lol.. seems we did the same thing, i was hoping not to have to go into safe mode but it seems the only way i guess. I’ve tried all other ways. A website said if you go into command prompt and typed the directory that toprates.dll was in type it like this: regsvr32 /u toprates.dll the /u was for the unregistering of the dll for you to be able to delete it from the directory. i tried this several times and it still did not work. If this is the same toprates.dll that you had then you had an annoying popup saying your computer is infected with spyware! and actually it was a bad website scamming you into buying their antivirus or w.e somethin like Files search or w.e.. neways.. this is actually a trojan called Trojan.obfuscated.gx .. prolly the worst trojan i’ve ever faced. im normally good at taking down trojans if i get one but this is the worst one for me.

I have a problem while using my computer some warning about viruses are popping out like urging me to download those crappy trusted anti virus sites and xp anti virus. How do I get rid of the warning and I cannot delete the xp anti virus protection because its icon is still on the toolbar and it cannot be closed and there’s also a red circle with an x mark on it in the toolbar. Lastly when im using a program the computer just jumps unto another program like im using mozilla firefox and then it will change to other programs i’ve opened automatically. Need a help here guys..

Hello Guys,
I am experiencing a similar problem. I have got the pc-antispyware virus alert which freezes everything. I tried Spybot search & destroy, Adaware, Hijackthis, and Sophos but no joy.
I also tried using SDFix (start the OS in safe mode and then cleans-up all the spywares and trojans).
Its kinda Vundoo trojan thing, I understand.

I deleted all the files (including the log files) and it got rid of the stupid thing from my computer. Sometimes it will say “cannot delete because file is in use” (or something along those lines). This occurred for me because I did not delete the log files first. After I deleted the log files, I was able to delete the folder that the antispyware program was on.
