| | Re: HELP! Hi, Worth trying, but unfortunately in most cases because these worms rarely last long and tend to spread quickly, the scanners won't have them. In general it'll just be a running process so all you have to do is bring up the Task Manager, locate the "weird" process running, and then remove it. Of course, if you're not that familiar with your PC, this might be a problem. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Oscar" <jurgenrapp@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:O9KfJANfIHA.4880@xxxxxx Quote: > If you haven't already, try some online antivirus scanners. > > http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ > http://onecare.live.com/site/en-US/c...cid=mscom_msrt > http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner > http://www.pandasecurity.com/homeuse...ns/activescan/ > http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml > http://us.mcafee.com/root/mfs/default.asp > > Sachin wrote: Quote: >> HELP! my messenger has been infected with ta worm!! i don't know how to get rid of it! >> i've tried reinstalling the software even downloading the new messenger but the worm is >> stiil there! here's what the msg look like: >> >> this looks alot like you :S >> hxxp://imageshare.hostsnake.com/viewimage.php?=i_wuv_muzik104@xxxxxx >> >> that's the link i got in a im convo. anyone out there know about thiss and can help me >> please?!?!?!?! |
