Also I had a question-<BR/>- Ever since i made the registry change, whenver the system boots up to the desktop, it gives a windows script host window saying -"Unknown option specifed- /fq/a" . Was there a mistake in the way i made the regedit? There is no other problem on the C: other than this.<BR/>- Also, I have another 2 partitions on the hard driove E: and F: - they were also infected. The issue now is that when i try to access these drives from "My Computer" it says - "Cannot find script file'E:\Protectfile.vbs"...this was happening with C: before, howver after the registry change am able toopen C:without any issues..but not E: and F:.

You can delete the file by addin...@haru_abk<BR/>Hi Haru. You can delete the file by adding your user and grant it full rights. If you're using windows XP Professional, do the following steps:<BR/><BR/>1. Open windows explorer. Tools->Folder Options->View, then under advance settings, uncheck the last option for 'Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended)'<BR/><BR/>2. Right click on the drive/directory from which you want to remove the file.<BR/>Properties->Security<BR/>Click on Add under 'Group or User name'. Then add your current user and press ok. Do it even if you are already an administrator.<BR/>Then back on the security tab, click on ALL the users 1 by 1 and for each user, tick the 'Allow' on 'Full Control'<BR/>Then OK. And then delete it. If it still doesnt work, start windows in safe mode and log in with the administrator and then do it.<BR/><BR/>If it still doesnt work, you can use the simplest method.<BR/><BR/>Download the latest version of Spybot - Search & Destroy. Install and Update. Click on 'Mode' at top and set to 'Advanced mode'.<BR/>Then under left side panel, goto 'Tools' and open 'Secure Shredder'.<BR/><BR/>Its a VERY powerful handy software. You can simply search for all copies of secureguard and protectfile and shred them using the shredder. It deletes all system files.<BR/><BR/>Simple :)<BR/><BR/>Spybot can be downloaded from <BR/>http://www.filehippo.com/download_spybot_search_destroy/<BR/><BR/>PS: You can use just the shredder as well.<BR/><BR/>I am uploading it on Rapidshare. Just download, extract the exe and dll and run.<BR/><BR/>http://rapidshare.com/files/165259509/Secure_Shredder.rarRidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10453138880039197478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2237739186193094495.post-38734370703386575342008-11-19T14:53:00.000+05:302008-11-19T14:53:00.000+05:30HiI am also suffering from the same virus, I follo...Hi<BR/>I am also suffering from the same virus, I followed the guideline given here<BR/>but still virus is there in my sytem , as i tried to delete the secureguard it gave me a messge <BR/><B>"access denied!"</B>. so this file secureguard could not be removed from my system.<BR/>can any one please help me out.Abdulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069415267413544904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2237739186193094495.post-56069806902505530982008-11-15T20:07:00.000+05:302008-11-15T20:07:00.000+05:30@RidgeWelcome dudeyeah...its just a stupid malware...@Ridge<BR/>Welcome dude<BR/>yeah...its just a stupid malware tht gets hidden in all drives...quite annoying tooThe Geekiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611488120444161173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2237739186193094495.post-65282608784000388292008-11-15T06:38:00.000+05:302008-11-15T06:38:00.000+05:30Thanks a lot mate.
