    Default Win32.2UrFace.bho

    I have recently started a virus scan on Search & Destroy, I got a file pop-up on it saying Win32.2UrFace.bho after a while of the antivirus being up the PC crashed. I turned it back on in safe mode and I don't know how to get rid of it. I'm currently doing the virus scan in safe mode. Can I manually remove the virus? if so, how? I'm a computer dummy btw.

    Default Win32.2urface

    Each time I do spybot this malware comes up, apparently nothing including, AVG is actually removing it. How can I remove it?

    I found a previous thread and continued to run as admin, deleted a download that showed up in the individual searches that were listed and also ran another anti-malware. Somehow it dissapeared and is not showing up. Thank you. If it comes back I will post again

    Default Having the problem mentioned but can't figure out how to get rid of this

    My computer has this 'cleaned' every time I run SpyBot but keeps crashing and shutting down.

    System is

    Dell Inspiron 1525
    Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 2
    Intel Celeron processor

    Help, how do I get rid of this thing.

    Bill

    Win32.2UrFace.bho?

    Please list:

    Your version of Spybot
    http://www.safer-networking.org/

    Other security programs installed

    Also, did you elevate permissions to run Spybot - Search & Destroy? How can I get administrator rights under Windows Vista / Windows 7 / Windows 8?

    Best regards.

    Default Continuous Virus

    I have a Win8 Pro machine that, according to SpyBot, gets this virus. I run a scan and it shows up. I tell SpyBot to fix the problem, run another scan immediately and it shows up again.

    What's interesting is that when I got into the registry to find the virus, the location that it says the virus is at doesn't exist. And none of the other Malware security programs I'm running find this virus. Is it possible that it's a false positive?

    Has Spybot been asking and then running at startup when you've been scanning?
