Answer» Hello, I have a virus on my computer. I am running Windows Xp, and my antivirus has picked up 8 Win32:Vundo-gen46 viruses, and 1 Win32:Trojan-gen. I have put them in the"chest" because I was not sure whether not not to delete them because they were in my C:\Windows\system32 file. My computer has been acting slowly, and when I open Internet explorer a pop up opens up in a new window.
Should I delete these files? Also what Anti-virus would you suggest to prevent this in the future?Thanks for any helpI hope some staff member will move this TOPIC to "Computer Viruses and Spyware"
Anyway, what antivirus are you running now? Since it picked up those trojans, it seems to be working OK.
Now, DOWNLOAD Vundo Removal Tool. Download HijackThis. Install it in its own directory, like C:\HijackThis.
If you are on a network or have a full-time connection to the Internet, such as a DSL or cable modem, disconnect the computer from the network and Internet.
Run downloaded Vundo Removal Tool.
Run HijackThis, and post its log back here.Due to lack of FEEDBACK, I am closing this topic. If you are the ORIGINAL poster and you would like this topic to be re-opened for any reason, PM me or another moderator and it can be arranged.
