Rob1647545496 Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Edited because you're spreading spyware. I'm going to assume you didn't know this. The software on that website contains spyware/adware and tells you to purchase the fix. That's some bullshit. Don't post that crap again. -Ben aka Satan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farkas Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 I would recommend booting your computer up in Safe-mode that way no other un-needed programs run in the backround and re-create files that you delete and run ad-aware, spybot, your Antivirus software whatever..

Rob1647545496 Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 i apologize this was not intentional. i did have the same thing and used some software to get rid of it. obviously it wasn't the correct site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Annnnnnnd it still works... imagine that There's a reason for safe mode and it still does it's job. Uhm, no... not really. For instance: backdoor.haxdoor.o (7/24/06) -- It installs as a rootkit, and runs as a service. It loads in safemode w/ and w/o network support. So, booting in safemode does no good. You have to disable system restore, and boot to an NTFS bootable floppy. Then delete 12 or so files via command line. Then boot back up to Windows, and remove 4 or 5 registry keys. I'd venture to say almost 70% of the viruses I see run in a very similar way, making safemode pointless. i apologize this was not intentional. i did have the same thing and used some software to get rid of it. obviously it wasn't the correct site No problem man. Listen to Ben, he can fix it, he has this ultimate set of tools. BTW Ben if you ever need that drive recovery SW, let me know. I am spyware/adware God. And yeah, I still need that software. Haha. I'll get ahold of you sometime this week. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 There are some trojans you just cant get rid of unless you rewrite your entire registry by hand. In cases like that, its best to go the geek squad route. Back up your shit you had on there in thats important (which you should be doing anyway, out of good practice), and just format it and reinstall everything. Dont waste your time hunting down spyware you probobly cant get rid of. Trust me on this one, Ive been through this a lot with other people's computers, not just my own.

That's probably the single worst bit of IT advice I've ever heard. Congrats. I've heard a lot of stupid shit. The only good point you made was to backup stuff regularly. Ever other bit was straight retarded. ALL spyware/adware can be removed, and in a decent amount of time. I deal with spyware/adware everyday, unfortunately. If I told someone I was just going to format their PC and start over, I'd probably get fired. But I guess that's why I work in IT and you work where? Kroger? McDonald's?

XChris1632X Posted July 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 the only reason i didnt format before is because i was stupid and didnt back up any of my shit and there is stuff i have on this computer that i cant get rid of. if i can start fresh i will always back stuff up from now on. i didnt want to try to back things up now and then format becuase i figured i might back up an infected file.

As I have made a point in earlier posts, people on this forum think that they are God.You didnt need to be such a fucking prick about it. All you had to say was "No, I dont agree with that.", but instead you had to wave your dick around. So congrats CR, another member of your administration leaves a bad impression on the users.

You're 17. Go cry to mommy, and stop playing IT guy until you know what you're talking about. I'm the resident asshole, aka Satan. Not God. Not trying to be God. Deal with it. And congrats organized religion, another member of your congregation shows their true side by swearing and being generally vulgar.
