A new virus out that disables your antivirus protection

I have not heard about this virus but my roomates computer just went down and now damaged the power supply and the mother board. I dont know whats the real caus e of it but Im just hoping its not the virus that have caused such damage. Well, people could think of so many things just to earn money at the expense of other people and damaging computers. I just pity the victims coz it would mean additional expenses.

I have not heard of the new virus but am not surprised since new viruses are always coming out and the creators are trying to make them worse and do more damage to computers. Another reason to switch to a Mac. I do have Windows XP so I do still need to worry about the virus you mentioned. You would think people would use their brains to make good and helpful things then to make peoples lives miserable.

the virus disabled your antivirus? oh no that's bad news. I have a couple of antivirus and spyware or adware scan and cleaners in my PC. Then my provider also has a couple of their own downloaded to mine. I don't know the names. so how did you get this blinking triangle in the first place? did you open an email and there it was?

I've not heard of this ...yet. you can get rid of the "Trend micro" program by using a tool called Regedit there are loads of different ones available so check on gooogle for the easiest to use one. Be warned though you can do some serious damage to your system with it, so if in doubt get a tech guy in to have a look!

There are lots of these, usually called "hostile Trojans." They're not designed to ruin your computer, but to disable defenses so they may stay on your system for as long as possible. They're not as stealthy and sophisticated as rootkits, but they're still in the wild. I suggest you run some scanners from safe mode with networking: Restart your computer. After Windows shuts down and your computer restarts, start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears. Press the up arrow key on your keyboard until “Safe Mode with Networking” is highlighted. Press “Enter.” Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the operating system you are trying to secure, then press “Enter” (unless you have multiple operating systems installed, there is only one). Once in safe mode with networking, try downloading and running these scanners: http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml http://www.ewido.net/en/ http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/free_security_tools/housecall_free_scan.php?WT.cg_n=home_qa_housecall http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/ax/ By the time you're done, there shouldn't be much left. Uninstall your security software, then reinstall it. If you want something stronger, there are some suggestions on my homepage: http://invincible-windows.blogspot.com/ Hope this helps!

i haven't heard that virus yet. but what i know that there are antivirus which can't detect other kind of virus and maybe your antivirus is one of it. i will recommend mcafee 80i for antivirus, its effective.

i was not aware it till now.anyway thanks a lot for the information.

although the Batangas for sharing information on. What you have told is something which is nothing very common. This means it is a very deadly virus and we should be aware of it. Nowadays such activities are improving and increasing day by day and South acting we should all she or experiences so that we can help others from that virus activity.

i have not seen or heard about it before. thanks for giving us caution beforehand. it is really dreadful. Do you have any other clue how should i know this is going to attack my PC?

I do not know what antivirus you use, but the one I use is quite good, antivir. and it also warns you of trojans. I would like to know the name of the antivirus you use and also the names of other antiviruses that others use that this worm disables. I did have trojan once that took over my old machine. That was when I was using Windows Me. I was using Avast at that time, so I quit using it even though everyone said it was very popular.

Yes, I have experienced this horrible computer virus. Besides, it also doesn't allow me to find a solution via the search engine. Whenever I input "virus", the window will disappear. That's quite smart. Finally I use a less famous anti-virus software to kill this virus. As it blocks all the famous anti-virus software.

Lots of new viruses and this one you are talking about is too smart. This should not only compromise your system security, this will also increase the holes for the other viruses to easily enter your system. Hope you get a better antivirus and clear it off soon.

Hi littlefranciscan! Oh that is terrible. I thought you were able to save your computer somehow. I think the virus keeps on getting more and more destructive. I hope these people will have some consciense on destroying other people's properties. Take care and have a nice day. :)

Yes, i actually experience it i have tried lots of anti-virus and but nothing works, finally i decided to reformat my hard disk and my friend told me to use kaspersky anti-virus i used and ever since have not experienced that kind of problem again.

I think viruses are developed by anti virus companies and insert it in to our system unknowingly.
