Hello, I found a Win32:Vitro on my machine a few days ago, and ran several more scans, all coming up clean, however yesterday and all throughout today my computers in my house have been disconnecting and reconnecting instantly for no apparent reason and I’ve tried rebooting constant times, both computers and modem.
Vitro is a very dangerous virus.
I suggest you backup your data and documents quickly.
Search the forum for Vitro and you’ll find more info, specially from Polonus.
I suggest, read the instructions, download and burn (maybe from another computer), finally use one of this rescue CD’s:
One computer has F-Secure, I chested the virus successfully when I found it, but it just keeps on disconnecting and reconnecting, I have no important files on this computer except games which is an easy reinstall I’m just wondering if it’s a problem with the router? Or could it have spread to both computers, and is it capable of doing that?
Are the two computers networked or just share the Internet connection?
There is a network folder and shared file, I’m not sure though.
So, the better will be remove the sharing as the virus could spread through a network.
Could it be making the internet do that though?
I don’t think so… but regarding to malware… who knows… but probably not.
Okay, but I will heed you’re advice and get rid of the shared drive, must be a problem at the internet provider.
Is your router using the firewall settings? If so you have to port forward…
Have a nice day
Interesting… my computer did this the day I got Vitro. The entire network cut off and we had to reset the modem to get it back. I had thought it was just a coincidence, but now I’m not so sure…
