I Think I Just Had Another Virus Attack.

[NNNOOOOOO 0]

Is anyone familiar with "Smart Engine"? Characteristics shown:

constant "your computer is infected", "by this now to clean your PC"process ended; program started back somehowre-enabled proxy (re-disabled)undetected by [i]REAL[/i] antivirus

I purposely corrupted the EXE with "Res. Hacker". After changing a few characters, I deleted a few lines of code. I then saved it. The program then stopped running. After trying to restart it, the EXE was deleted. The shortcuts (one was named "Computer" but ran the EXE instead) was deleted. The most fun I had getting rid of a potential virus.

Good going. Most of us don't have such luck, but you seemed to have the right software and knowledge to stop the virus dead in its tracks. Smart move on your part. My virus detection software has saved my behind 3 times here lately when I got infected e-mails; all were from mailboxes of friends that I recognized or I wouldn't have opened them to begin with. Unfortunately, that means my friends have the viruss on their computers. Edited March 26, 2012 by moderator (see edit history)

That the nice trick, but if you face a serious virus attack and there is important data on your drive than you need a virus removal software to protect your PC and the technician help for recovering data.

Another option is to completely reformat the hard drive and re-install Windows (or put a different OS on it).

Hello friends,

For whatever reason, anti-virus programs are often difficult to completely remove from computers.Difficult as in it takes quite a bit of time, knowledge, and often some messing about in the registry to get rid of all the items left behind.

It's such a difficult task that several of the well-known anti-virus vendors have created tools that are specially crafted to remove their programs from computers.

Windows Guides has helpfully put together a list of anti-virus removal tools from several anti-virus vendors.
This is very good information to have if you want to delete or change anti-virus programs.
As an aside, it's best to have one anti-virus program at a time installed, or, if you feel you need more than one, run them separately since running more than one anti-virus at a time on a single computer can wreak havoc on a system.

A note about the list of removal tools - some links lead to a direct download link, and clicking on them will start the file download.
The ones that go to direct download are Panda (all), BitDefender, McAfee, and Norton.
The rest take you to a page where the removal tools can be downloaded.

Regards
Vicky Milza
