How Do I Completely Get Rid Of The Trojan Vundo Computer Virus?
I have the trojan vundo virus on my computer. I downloaded superantispyware and have run a scan on my computer three times so far. Each time I think I have gotten rid of it, it’s back. How do I completely and effectively get rid of this annoying virus? I’ve tried everything and it’s not working.
you have been infected with trojan vundo virus. Unfortunately, if you find one infection, it is highly likely you have another one. A virus, trojan or worm are all different types of infections/malware and there are some great FREE programs that can help you.
First, clean up (delete) your cookies, temp files and temporary internet files. I prefer to use Ccleaner (available at http://www.filehippo.com) to do this, rather than the built-in DISK CLEANUP, as I feel it does a much more thorough job – for example, it will clean out the index files on your next reboot.
If you want to use Disk Cleanup, you can find it if you:
- Double-Click on My Computer to open it up
- RIGHT-click on your C: drive
- Choose PROPERTIES and then click on the DISK CLEANUP button
- When done, reboot your computer.
Delete these files daily or run Ccleaner every day right before you shut your computer down.
2 – You should also have a good anti-virus program to help protect your computer. AVG FREE is an excellent anti-virus program, which can be downloaded from http://www.download.com. You might also choose Avast or Avira, both also free programs from http://www.download.com.
3 -Since NONE of the anti-spyware/anti-adware programs are 100% accurate in finding and removing spyware, you need at least two programs which you will run one after the other, not at the same time.
There are three excellent free ones:
–Spybot, Search and Destroy
–Ad-Aware
–Spyware Blaster
All are available FREE from http://www.download.com
You will need to download, install, update (and IMMUNIZE in Spybot) and run them, one at a time. Be careful with the NAME of these programs – there are “look-alikes” with very similar names, that are in fact spyware themselves! Reboot after you install each one!
After this current infection is cleared up, be sure to run both of the above programs at least once a week if you are on the internet frequently and/or like to download music or files.
NOTE: Some infections prevent your from downloading the above programs. You may have to use a clean computer to download the programs and copy them to a thumb drive or CD. Then transfer the install files to the infected computer and run.
–Occasionally you will not be able to run these programs without being in SAFE MODE. To get there, reboot your computer and tap the F8 key, repeatedly until a menu comes up. You want to choose SAFE MODE WITH NETWORKING.
4 -You should also have a good firewall to help protect your computer. Zone Alarm makes a totally free version (watch you don’t download the 30-day free trial of the paid version). You can download this from the manufacturer at http://www.zonelabs.com
Hi. Looks like your computer is running with stupid six or eight-legged bugs!
These are the best antivirus and antispyware that i’ve ever had:
Avira AntiVir Personal Edition Classic (Free)http://www.download.com/Avira-AntiVir-Pe…
(Avira is better than AVG, based on my experience. McAfee and Norton are the worst ones, so don’t ever trust them)
Spyware Doctor Starter Edition (Free)http://www.download.com/Spyware-Doctor-S…
(Spydoc is my lifesaver. when I had a horrible virus once, this one has been the only solution. Spyware Doctor is kinda system hog, though… running it requires a lot of memory and uses a big deal of resources on CPU. I suggest disabling it after every use)
Update these two programs regularly.
Also, download Smitfraudfixhttp://siri.geekstogo.com/SmitfraudFix.p…
and also Kaizer Virus Killerhttp://www.pinoyspy.net/node/4754
(download link somewhere below)
They are DOS-based applications, but worked very fine on my computer! Don’t be afraid using DOS applications, just follow the instructions and everything will be fine. In the Kaizer Killer, all you have to do is to double-click the application and it automatically removes most viruses in a heartbeat. Just use them in Safe Mode (to start in Safe Mode, press F8 a couple of times before the boot logo appears, you will be prompted to select one of the Startup options, and choose Safe Mode)
The programs detected the viruses that has not been detected by the two GUI programs.
Use Mozilla Firefox as your default browser (because it’s absolutely the best browser ever) and always remember to update Windows for system stability.
Hope this works for you.
