1) Download the following two items...
Trend Sysclean Package
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp
Latest Trend signature files.
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp
Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\New Folder")
or the desktop
(e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder")
Download sysclean.com and place it in that directory.
Dowload the signature files (pattern files) by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt186.zip
Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
sysclean.com.
2) If you are using WinME or WinXP, disable System Restore

3) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode
4) Using the Trend Sysclean utility, perform a Full Scan of your platform and
clean/delete any infectors found

| Well, I downloaded somthing off of an away message on AOL
| Instant Messanger and at the time I didnt know it was a
| virus until my AIM automatically started signing on, and
| posting up the same hyperlink that i had clicked on. Now,
| my task manager, regedit, or yahoo browser wont open.
| When I click on them they either automatically shut down
| eally fast, or say that the program had encountered a
| problem like it does with the yahoo browser. I have
| already scanned my computer and gotten rid of many many
| virus's, but I think I need a patch or somthing because
| my computer is still messed up. Please help in anyway you
| can. Thank you!
