Win32 Beagle-AX

Hi,

I pick up a virus Avast identified as Win32 Beagle-AX. I went to the Avast virus repair tool and found it did not address Beagle-AX. Tried it too, didn’t work. Need help cleaning up.

Thanks,

Eddy,

Ok. All is well, I think. I found two other files that are infected. For some reason Avast did not give the first virus alert until after I had shut down and rebooted. And then only one file was cited. After I put the infected file in the Chest the HDD continued downloading and would not allow any keyboard input. I tried to Scan but the HDD activity kept interfereing, so I went to Safe Mode: it happened there too. Even a utility I have that initiates Scan Disk on a regular or a Safe Mode boot before any programs and loaded did not work. I re-read the data in your link went back to avast and scanned the whole system file, that’s when I found the other two files. Now only if the removed ‘system’ files regenerate, I’ll be okay. Here’s hopping.

Thanks,

Post A HijackThis log here and let me have a look.
Let’s see if I can find something.
Just to to check. That never harms :wink:

You can also try the Beagle removal tool from symantec (http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/FxBeagle.exe), just to make sure that all traces of the virus are gone.

Eddy,

I seem to be having problems with posting, I hit the giddy-up button and it doesn’t go anywhere. Similarly with my email when I hit a hyperlink nothing happened so I hit refresh and did it again and again and again…nothing happened. I left my ICP site and surfed on. Later I noticed my, whatca-call-it next to the Start button, was full of images and each one was from an attempt I made to activate the hyperlink. Here’s a copy of the Hijackthis log, I’m off to Symantec for a system wash.

Eddy,

I got a problem. Some of the fix items must have been keystones because many of my programs won’t run and can’t be uninstalled so that I can reinstall them. I made a copy of the registry using Win 98, unfortunately the system tells me I need to reinstall Win 98 in order to install the backup of the registry. The problem is I do not have the Win 98 disc for this computer. Did Hijackthis make a backup? If it did where is it? I want to backup some if my programs that I no longer have disks for and scrub the HDD and install Win Me. You guessed it my Nero program is crippled and can’t be uninstalled.

Thanks,
rondlac

None of them are keystones.
Visit my website and look at the HijackThis section.
There is a tutorial/explanation about the log file.
