Attack of windows xp restore- DDS.txt

[Blade81]

Hi,

Open notepad and then copy and paste the bolded lines below into it. Go to File > save as and name the file fixes.bat, change the Save as type to all files and save it to your desktop.
@ECHO OFF
DEL /Q c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\volsnap_old.sys
DEL %0

Double-click on fixes.bat file to execute it. That should take care of the file

Hi Blade ,
I deleted the file as per your instruction. Symatic will not run or update. Does the machine appear to be clean at this point ?

Logs look good. In case you may want to try other antivirus solution instead of Symantec Antivirus I included a few options below.

Good free antivirus programs are:
Antivir and
Avast!

Good commercial ones are from:
Kaspersky and
ESET
