Ok Need Help With A Virus Problem

[DeChache]

Ok my roomate has some kind of virus that will make things pop up from his taskbar saying his computer and when you click them it will take you to antispylab.com and he has ran adaware and is running the synatic crap the the college makes us use. It also keeps trying to shut down his computer by killing the lsass.exe process.

Also the popups say something about a trojan.virus.Z.32.exe.
His number of processes keeps growing.

Any help would be appreacated.

Build a BartPE CD loaded with antivirus and anti-spyware apps on a clean workstation. Tehn boot from it to clean the infected workstation.

Not a virus, just an adware to get you to purchase their stuff...it's an annoying one.

A variant of Spysheriff....there are a number of tools out now which can remove it.

Follow the guides here..you'll be in good shape in a few minutes...

You'll see some links to removal tools there...for the Smitfraud

Don't forget to use Ewido also.

Well we got it off but that cleanup program screwed up windows the folders and the startbar where no longer there so we are trying to correct that problem right now.

Did you follow those all exactly...step by step?

I carry those on my USB thumb drive now, because I run into these spysheriff/smitfraud variants so much.
