Hi whales,

Don't worry we will help you to clean this.  ;)

Which AntiVirus you use? I'm asking because this number of "200" is very suspicious.

Now please also provide us next information's:

1. All possible details related to yours problems / infection.

2. Log from Kaspersky Online AntiVirus Scan: http://scforum.info/index.php/topic,734.0.html

3. Log from HijackThis: http://scforum.info/index.php/topic,785.0.html


I'll wait your reply (with logs).

Regards,

Samker

You can install HijackThis for example via Memory Stick, CD...

I would also recommend before all this, that you on same way install, update and run full scan with latest version of Spybot S&D & Malwarebytes...

mcafee can remove sality virus, you just have to have a boot cd like windows live cd.. mcafee has this scangui program and with an updated/extracted superdat, sality can be remove by any anti virus as long as it is updated, you can also try to slave the infected HDD to another pc with an updated anti virus.

You must try to use BitDefender antivirus, its the best option that can remove any type of viruses and spywares , and now it updates in to a new version of 2011.
