I believe I am infected with the virtumonde virus. I have had Spybot and teatimer running on this laptop for
over a year. Recently Norton antivirus and Spybot said I had the virtumonde virus. I ran both programs to locate
and fix it. Now Spybot finds several infected files and asks to reboot to clean them all out. I say yes and it
continues scanning until it comes to another infected file. It then asks again to reboot to continue. I say yes
and it continues the scan. I have tried variations on this - doing a hard reboot when Spybot finds an infected
file, working in Windows safe mode etc. but nothing changes. I allowed my laptop to connect to the internet
(up to this time since I found the infection, I stopped that) but Spybot cannot connect to update (the last
update was within the last week.). The hard drive seems to run continuously in that mode. I have just
downloaded Hyjack from a second uninfected computer and did this scan on the infected laptop.
I did some research (a little knowledge is a dangerous thing) and read that one older version of Sun Java may
have had a loophole for this virus to get in. I think the infected laptop had that version. I have unistalled it
and deleted all of the Java directories left behind. The laptop has no Java on it now that I know of.
I can try again to run Hyjack on a normal Windows settings (but still not connected to internet) to get a more
complete listing. The continuosly running hard drive scares me and it seems to be extremely sluggish.
I appreciate any help you can give in cleaning this and help so it is not reinfected in the future.
Thanks,
Ken
PS I did copy the Hyjack log out of Notepad with word wrap turned off but it appears to wrap in when pasted in the forum thread page. sorry
