Please read the following URL:
http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm
The objective:
------------------
- Turn off the System Restore function
- Reboot the PC
- Using McAfee scanner, perform a full scan of all files on the platform and clean/delete
infectors found
- Turn on the System Restore function, and re-apply any System Restore preferences,
e.g. HD space to use
- Reboot the PC
- Create a new System Restore point.
Please report back your results...
In addition:
If you post to UseNet with your TRUE, not a munged, email address then you have invited the
Swen Internet worm [aka; W32/Gibe-F] to visit you.
The Swen is news spelled backwards. The reason it is called this is because the Swen worm
harvests email addresses from UseNet News Groups. It has an engine that allows it to post
itself to UseNet News Groups as well as it has its own email engine. From the list of
email addresses that it has harvested, it will then email itself to those addresses.
