Does anyone know where I might be able to find the 'msnvirrem' program from as the link to the file on 'portalsentry.com' seems dead.
hi
Please download MsnVirRem (http://www.portalsentry.com/msnvirrem.htm) (Either zip or self extracting .exe), and save it to your desktop. Once in place, right click the zip file (or double click the exe), and extract the files to your desktop. It will create another folder called MsnVirRem DO NOT RUN ANYTHING IN IT YET
Restart your computer and boot into Safe Mode by hitting the F8 key repeatedly until a menu shows up (and choose Safe Mode from the list). In some systems, this may be the F5 key, so try that if F8 doesn't work.
In the new MsnVirRem folder, that you should have on your desktop, double click MsnVir.bat and let it run its course. A DOS window should pop up, Let it run until it disappears. It will take time to scan your machine.
After it disappears, reboot back into normal mode, and post a fresh HijackThis Log.
NOTE: if the link for the removal tool fails, or time out try again
if it is still unavailable the tool is temporarily available (unofficial mirror )
at http://koti.mbnet.fi/illukka/MsnVirRem.zip
the download will be removed soon as things gets sorted out
Due to lack of a response this topic will be archived.
If you need it re-opened please send me a pm and provide a link to the thread.
