Will these Programs remove worm.win32.netsky?
Typing this from my laptop.
This problem is on my tower running Win XP.
My Rogers online protection froze up and didn't get a chance to quarintine worm.win32.netsky when it detected it so I had to end the protection program.
I've disconnected the tower from the internet.
I currently have a green screen with the icon description names highlighted with the message in the middle of the screen that says
Your system is infected!
system has been stopped due to a serious malfunction
spyware activity has been detected
It is recommended to use spyware removal tool to prevent data loss
do not use the computer before all spyware removed.
I've ran the Rogers online protection spyware scan and it found nothing until later down below. I won't bother running the rogers antivirus scanner since I heard that the rogers protection software is a piece of garbage.
Even though I'm not on the net a msg pops up from windows saying to click here to protect your computer from spyware!
Your computer is infected! Windows has detected an infection of spyware. It is recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data loss. Windows will now download and install the most up to date antispyware for you. This must be part of the worm. Correct?
I'm now scanning using SUPERAntiSpyware then I'll run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
Rogers just poped up and said it found and quarantined virus in
C:\window\system32\critical_warning.html (I deleted it)
SUPERAntiSpyware so far has detected:
4 Trojan.Agent/Gen
1 Trojan.Agent/Gen-Rogue(Installer)
1 Adware Tracking Cookie
I also got a warning message that popped up
Attention! System detected a potential hazard (TrojanSPM/LX) on your computer that may infect executable files. You private information and PC safety is at risk. To get rid if unwanted spyware and keep your computer safe you need update your current security software. Click ok to download official intrusion detection system (IDS software) ok, so this also sounds like a fake message especially with the bad english. I just gave it a go since I'm not connected to the internet.
Do I need to download and run anything else after running SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware?
