Win32:Rootkit-gen [rtk]

Hi everyone,

My computer is infected with Win32:Rootkit-gen[rtk] and it keeps adding files with “byvvst.dll” everytime I boot the computer. I’m using AVAST 5.

I keep deleting the files that it add to the “Start Menu” but files keep adding all the time. I am using MBAM, Spybot - Search & Destroy, Ad-aware, Window Defender, avast & zone alarm.

Since this infention - I cannot use MBAM or/nor Window Defender anymore - It doesn’t open - So, I downloaded SuperAntispyware with no luck with the scan.

Spybot - Search & Destroy find something call “Vundo”

I need your help - This is my first post… but I’m not so new to AVAST - I been using Avast for well over 3 years - and it was working well for all those years… I use Avast version 5 - before I installed Avast - I was using McAfee…

Thanks in advance for your help…

Can you schedule a boot time avast scanning?
Also, maybe some CDs help. Read the instructions, download and burn (maybe from another computer), finally use one of this rescue CD’s:

  1. Dr. Web
  2. Avira
  3. BitDefender
  4. Kaspersky
  5. F-Secure

I would advise extreme care when/if using a-squared as it has form for many false positives. Never delete, investigate

I tried Asquared on a whim, ran 3 seperate scans, and it found 1 infection per scan(not the same one). Upon investigating found them to be false postives.
