1) Download the following three items...
Trend Sysclean Package
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp
Latest Trend signature files.
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp
Adaware SE
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/
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

4) Using both the Trend Sysclean utility and Adaware, perform a Full Scan of your
platform and clean/delete any infectors/parasites found.

6) If you are using WinME or WinXP,Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any
System Restore preferences, (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB),
7) Reboot your PC.
8) If you are using WinME or WinXP, create a new Restore point

| Hello there,
| I'm hoping someone will be able to help me solve an
| annoying virus problem. Whenever the internet is plugged
| into my computer my Nortan Anitvirus pops up constantly
| with virus fixed messages with about 4 to 6 variations,
| eg. C:/WINDOWS/Brasil.bif I downloaded a patch for these
| kind of virus's. This hasn't fixed the problem so I was
| wondering if anyone knew how? Thanks very much.
