guys i just discovered and cleaned this virus from my pc using Stinger. i want to know is it still in my pc because few days ago it was in my system folder so i formatted c drive and after installing clean installation it magically appeared after few days. I daily scan my harddisk using stinger but couldnt find any threat. People usually say that once you hit the pate.b you must delete the partition...... SO TELL ME WHAT YOU SAY
I hate those people who dont share their problem and solutions with other people...

don't just use stinger as it does about 47-48 viruses whereas there is over 80,000 viruses, use avg6 or 7 free version from www.grisoft.com or any other anti viirus program. possibility getting infected from one site
