“Win32:Small-EK [Trj]” has been found in “http://85.255.117.124/users/rainy/web/images/logo.jpg”
It will not start, hoewer, it runs in background and uses 95% of CPU. There ware allso some stupid bookmarks in IE viagra, rolex…
Allso my e-banking application has same simptoms, as Thunderbird.
i tried some Progs:
Avast4home stops on zonelabs folder
Panda activescan stops on desktop.ini
Spyboot S&D stops on sober
panda quickremover stops on zpy.dll
I can not install Adware - instalation hangs.
Sorry for my poor english & HELP! PLEASE!
The location of the virus is shown as an internet URL, this means that the Web Shield intercepted it before it was saved to your browser cache. The only option given would have been to ‘abort the connection,’ effectively stopping it being saved to your hard disk.
So that particular virus shouldn’t be on your system, however I have no idea if there is anything else.
You can also schedule a boot-time scan from within avast, right click the avast icon, select Start avast! Antivirus, Menu, ‘Schedule boot-time scan…’
Panda’s on-line active scan creates a folder ‘activescan’ and installs virus signature files in your windows\system32 folder these aren’t encrypted, these files will be detected in future avast scans. Something to remember. Perhaps best to remove Panda’s active scan completely and use another on-line scanner as a back-up. On-line Virus Scanners and other useful Links Security-Ops.eu.tt
If you haven’t already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it, preferably in safe mode Ewido anti-spyware, hopefully at some point you will be able to install AdAware.
That "85.255.117.124" I believe is from a major spyware
company and most likely you should be asking for help on
the forums of your antiSPYWARE Provider.
However, a Google "search" revealed a similar post as
yours by a "crestasoul" who said they had Kaspersky
which they are unsure if it was COMPLETELY removed from
their computer !?
And if you have the latest version ( 6.5 ) of Zone Alarm, it
has been causing problems for many Users, causing some
to go back to an earlier version, such as 6.1 or 5.5 .
