Virtumonde

[DearJill]

Hi, I also have Virtumonde, Spybot keeps killing the exe qwerty12 process, virtumonde keeps running it.
I have downloaded HiJackThis, but do not want to continue without help. I am new to WinXP (hating it!) I never had malware issues with my Win98se, so I'm treading in new waters. I thank you in advance for the help!
Jill

Hi Jill, I also have an old Compaq with Windows 98SE on it that runs like a new computer, but without the support of Microsoft for the operating system, an occaisional sunny Sunday drive is all it gets anymore, but I must also say I own XPPro and XPHome and I love the operating system.

Now on to your problem, have a look at some information about Vundo:
Since there is a class action involving this one, you may want to view this information:

Spybot cannot remove a Vundo infection, in fact few programs can. Review the information I linked you to and then post your HJT log.

Thanks
