    Default Removing virtumonde?

    My computer has been very slow lately so i decide to use S&D and it found a few things. I removed them all and scanned my computer again to see if it worked. Everything was removed accept one of the things that was there before, virtumonde. I kept trying to remove this, restart my computer,re-scan, and remove again but it just won't go away. Help me pease?

    What version of Spybot - Search & Destroy are you running (Spybot » Help » About)?

    If you are not running Spybot 1.6.0.30, consider upgrading. The downloads are located here:

    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 and run Spybot-S&D.

    If you are running Spybot 1.6.0.30 and it still fails to correct the problem, consider posting in the Malware Removal forum and having someone take a look at your system.

    If you decide to have an experienced malware removal specialist assist you, please follow the procedure in this link to run scans and produce a HijackThis log:
    After you have completed the required scans and produced the requested logs, start your own thread in the Malware Removal forum, making sure to post the HijackThis log produced from the above instructions.

    Like in real estate where it is all about "… location, location, location …", I guess in forum posting that it is all about "… timing, timing, timing …".
