Ok, this is a horrid virus, and I can't get rid of it.
As soon as the computer realizes there's this Internet connection, it starts to send out this massive amount of emails. How do I know? Well go to a place where you have to log on to use the Internet (so you don't go past their router) and all you see are the Symantec windows about "Scanning Outgoing Mail", and we're talking hundreds of them.
My friend's Norton was way old and expired so while she went out to buy the latest copy, I did my own digging and found c.exe and some other ones.. We installed it properly, updated it, etc. and only had time to run the scan on the Windows (and subs) directory. It found two instances of Friendgreet and quarantined them.
But a reboot later and bam, there were those pesky "mail scanning" windows again, 100's of them.
We had to run, and she will do a full system scan tonight, but in the meantime I have to start looking for this virus. I'd say I would pull out all my hair this is driving me so crazy, but I have no hair.
I would gladly take any thoughts, forums, etc.
Thanks!
