Hi to all, My machine is affected by Trojan Virus and I am not able to disinfect this virus.Can any one suggest some any ideas or their experiences My Antivirus shows following viruses a. Trojan Vundo b. Trojan Downloader Symptom(s): 1. Automatically open internet explorer and go to some kind of flashy sites" Blacjack.com, wincash.com e.t.c" . Although i have uninstalled Internet explorer from control panel. 2.It automatically make some hidden temporary folders with java script on the location ...\Temp internet Files\Content.IE5\ where it store the list of those flashy website names. Hidden Folders means it can't be seen with Option "Show hidden files or folder " But you can go to that location if you use "Change Directory" DOS command or you enter same location on folder address bar. 3. My "Real time Symantec protection" with daily updated virus list can catch those script files, when they tried to execute that script, but unable to find the source that creates it. Action Taken: 1. Downloaded and run FixVundo from symantec site, did not help 2. Install Adware softwares "Ad ware 2007" or from google updater still not able to find the source. 3. Tried to delete thoes temp internet folders with "Windows & Internet Cleaner Pro" or opening the machine in safe mode with command prompt. 4. Right now I have disabled all the option of internet explorer like "Transfer files, allow java script", so it is not able to dowload any thing from diff site. still its very annoying that new window will open in every 5-10 minutes I am really frustrated that i am unable to to remove this virus. HELP PLEASE
