Posting for a friend.


Today, he found that task manager was disabled. He is the only person on his computer and he is admin so he ran a virus scan with avast and it found Temp\ac8zt2\main_uninstaller.exe. He told it to delete it, and it deleted, but about a minute later avast came up with the same message and then he sent it to chest. It came up again and he told me about it.

So its respawning, I know that so I know there is something somewhere on his computer. I told him to run a boot-time scan on avast and it came up with nothing?

Now its changing his background to a link. Unknown what he exactly means but I will know in a bit.

Heres his hijack this log.

You are not allowed to post Hijack This logs on this forum without being requested to do so.

The virus is "Vundo" and will shut the computer down if not removed it a timely manner.

Have your friend start a new thread stating that he thinks he has "Trojan Vundo" and do not post any logs untill requested to do so. It is best not to work on the computer "third party", so your friend needs to be the one to post the thread if at all possible.

This thread will be deleted by the moderator eventually.

Sorry, but I have not been around for quite a while. Since when was a Hijack this log like making a bomb threat and treated as so? I thought it was a helpful thing so that there was not more posts just asking, post a hijack this log?

Sure not my idea, but I can't believe your post has not been removed yet.

I think the purpose was to reduce the amount of people giving poor advice, and holding those who do accountable, and to keep this forum from being a dumping ground for Hijack This logs.

Many will still ask for help, post a log and never respond again.
