Re: Security Team Hey everyone,
There is a solution i was wondering if anyone else knows about.
If there is a virus, go to windows defender, click tools, and choose show programs.
There was that whole PC Antivirus 2008 scandle. The Rouge Trojan is very hard to get rid of. I got it (kind of intentionally) so i could solve it. I got a ton of help from other people on here. But the best way was to view the programs from defender. When you do see a program you dont know or not sure if you started, right click on it. Choose "open file location". I found the virus i had and also opened the files. They were the virus files i am sure. I choose to run a scan with Comodo, SPybot, and MalwareBite. They all came back that the files were safe and not infected. I did not believe it though. What i did was try and delete the files. They were locked. It said they were being used even though i told the program to stop in windows defender. I use unlocker all the time, so i rigt clicked on the files (which were located in a google folder in my common files. I deleted all google files the minute i did my fresh PC restore.) and chose to unlock the files. When i did this, it was locked onto all the programs i was running and had run that computer session. So i highlighted over them all, went down to the bottom, and killed all processes. The processes were killed but none of the programs i was using stopped. The files had made the files have a clone which it was attached to. I used eraser to delete the files so there would be no trace of them on my HD. The Trojan was conqured.
Anyone else do this?
