I recently had a virus in my computer and I got rid of most of the virus. The only thing that is left now is that there is a trojan that keeps redirecting my google pages to different sites. Please, can anyone tell me how to get rid of this trojan because even through the AVG that I downloaded, it still doesn’t find the trojan and my computer is running really slow. Thanks.

How to permanentally remove it?
I have been told to swithc off system restore and then remove this trojan. Then start system in safe mode and again run a scan.
Is this the right method?
Do you have any other method?
Please help me

what is msvcp57.dll? how to remove it?

Confiker is a worm that was first discovered in November of 2008.

It targets Windows machines via flaws in the operating system.

If Conficker makes it’s way onto a system then it will attempt ensnare that computer into a botnet which may have several purposes.

Thus far it is believed that up to nine million computers may be infected by the worm.

The worm uses advanced malware techniques and methods of delivery which is why it has been able to spread so far in such a short period of time.

The word “Confiker” is believed to come from an amalgamation of two other words – the English ‘configure’ and the German ‘ficker’ (I’ll leave you to Google what that one means).

Conficker is a huge problem because of the ease with which it spreads – it can navigate networks, copy itself onto removable and external drives and also infect USB and flash devices.

Fully updated Windows operating systems should be immune to Conficker so it is no surprise that most infections are seen in areas where piracy is widespread, such as Asia and Eastern Europe.

If, on the other hand, you have a genuine copy of Windows then you should be fine, especially if you have automatic updates switched on – a security update in October of 2008 (MS08-067) will prevent your system being infected with Conficker.

If you are unfortunate enough to be infected with the Conficker worm then do not despair as there are steps you can take to remove it from your system.

Microsoft offer a couple of services – their Malicious Software Removal Tool and a free online safety scan – which may be just what you need.

If you cannot access the various security sites on the net then a friend could always download the removal tool and bring it over to you.

Whether you have been infected with Conficker or not there is no need to panic – its easily blocked and easily removed.

Stay safe out there!

I am getting something that pops up that says virus alert and it won’t let me access the internet without purchasing this spyware stuff.
I have another computer that works and has access to the internet. Is there any FREE virus removal software that I can download, copy to my USB flash drive, and run on my infected computer?
Thanks in advance for all your help!

My computer recently is infected with the Virtumonde. It has shut down my anti-spyware program which never deletes this and keeps turning off the firewall. Now I can not use my PC as normal because the threats are there! I need a reliable secure program to get it work normally, please help!
