Hi! Can anyone help as I have run out of ideas on how to clean my system short of formating?! I have run Mcafee, Norton, Trend, A-Squared and every spyware removal software I think exists and STILL its on my system! Note: I have updated all anti-virus with the lastest defs etc. I have run scans in safe mode and safe mode with networking with no effect.
I think I have some kind of "Trojan.Satiloler" variant as my "userinit.exe" and "windows explorer" are hijacked or rewritten everytime I connect (broadband via USB Modem) to the net.
The little SOB tries to contact "www.super-lolitas.com" and "www.5sec.us" and a bunch of other domains (all ip numbers). I have system restore OFF! The only thing keeping this trojan/virus from connecting is my sygate pro firewall! I am also getting mass emailing to random email addresses when I do a Netstat check!
Why can't anti-virus progs fix it? They say they can.
