Hi

I have managed to get rid of most of my trojans by using Spybot - thanks! Unfortunately I cannot get rid of KillSec and Teslaplus - spybot is finding the problem but then seems unable to fix it. Can anyone suggest what I can do about this?

Looking forward to getting rid of these things once and for all..............at least for a little while anyway :p
 
First make sure that you are running the latest version of Spybot with the most resent updates. Go into Spybot > Help > About. You should see the following:
  • Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.4
    Latest detection update 2006-04-21
Then there are two things that you can try to get rid of the things that Spybot-S&D is having difficulty removing:
  1. Try to run it the next time you reboot.
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Settings > Settings > look for "System start" (located half way down the page).
    • Check the option: "Run program once at next system startup".
    • Reboot the system.
  2. Run it in Safe mode.
    • Reboot your system in Safe mode (see Note #1) and run Spybot-S&D.
If Spybot-S&D still fails to remove the problems you can request assistance in the Malware Removal forum.

Follow the instructions here:
Then post in the following forum:

Note #1: To reboot your system in Safe mode see:
