Alright there is this virus on my computer, This GUY advertised it as a game CHEAT so i decided to check it out. It added its self on startup and its always running under wpa.dbl.exe in my taskmanager. I try to remove is from startup from typing run and msconfig but no luck the process doesnt show up there or as a service. Now the directory this virus is in is C:\WINDOWS\system32\wpa.dbl.exe . The wierd thing is when i end the process and try to go in that folder its not there. I tried to uncover the hiddin files and again no luck . So i try to delete it with a batch command. It says there is no file in that directory with that name. Now the wierd part is when i try to re start it up with the back command it starts up. Correct me if im wrong but these are the results i get.

BATCH COMMANDS
C:\WINDOWS\system32>DEL wpa.dbl.exe
Could Not Find C:\WINDOWS\system32\wpa.dbl.exe <-----Error

C:\WINDOWS\system32>wpa.dbl.exe <----no running error (it ran successfully.)

C:\WINDOWS\system32>wpa.blahblahblah.exe <---trying a fake file i made up
'wpa.blahblahblah.exe' is not RECOGNIZED as an internal or external command,<--get this error
operable program or batch file.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>

what can i do to get rid of this virus. Im PRETTY sure its a keylogger! its undetectable by all antiviruses.


I've never heard of the Weird *censored* virus, but you do indeed appear to be infected. It appears to be trying to disguise itself as the Windows Protection Activation. Head over to VirusTotal and scan the file by pasting the filepath into the little white text box. Post the results here.

Then download HijackThis to C:\Program Files\HJT and run a scan. Post the log here for us to take a look at.
