View Full Version : Gaobot.df Worm, unaccessable task manager, cannot close limewire/shareaza

2006-06-10, 21:30
I'm infected with a worm which duplicates itself in the thousands in my shareaza shared folder and in a folder titled "complete" under c:\Documents and Settings\user. Just today I deleted 40,000 of these to clear up about 9 gigs of harddrive space. However, it's duplicating once again. I've used Trend Micro and spybot, and I just cant get this off my system.

Also, I cannot access my task manager: ctrl+alt+del does nothing.

Another issue I'm facing is that shareaza and limewire automatically start up when I boot up my computer, and whenever I close them, they keep on re-executing. Whenever I try uninstalling, it says the program is running or a file is being used by another program.

Any help will be greatly appreciated
