    | I have a trojan on my system. McAfee says it has cleaned it automatically and
    | then askes to reboot the computer. I complete this restart and the warning
    | comes up again for another file.
    |
    | All originate @ C:/windows\system32\hpAF79.tmp and are infected by the
    | Puper.dll trojan
    |
    | A different location comes up each time so I have restarted my pc several
    | times but it still appears.
    |
    | I have downloaded microsoft anti spyware and it tells me my system has no
    | problems.
    |
    | I tried to quarantine and delete the infected file but it tells me it is
    | being used by another programme and can't be deleted.
    |
    | What can I do to get rid of this peskie trojan. Help appreciated.
    |
    | thanks

    Scott:

    Download and execute the following Multi AV scanning tool.

    >From the menu, choose; "3. McAfee" and download the needed files. When it it asks if you
    want to perform a scan now, indicate no.

    You will be brought back to the menu. Choose; "5. Reboot the PC" and when the PC begins
    to restart, hit the F8 key and start in Safe Mode.

    Re-run the utility and choose; "3. McAfee" and scan the computer.

    Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
    http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

    It is a self-extracting ZIP file that contains the Kixtart Script Interpreter {
    http://kixtart.org Kixtart is CareWare } three batch files, five Kixtart scripts, one Link
    (.LNK) file, a PDF instruction file and two utilities; UNZIP.EXE and WGET.EXE. It will
    simplify the process of using; Sophos, Trend and McAfee Anti Virus Command Line Scanners to
    remove viruses, Trojans and various other malware.

    C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
    This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal Mode. This
    way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor’s web site.
    The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Exit the menu and Reboot the PC.

    You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you can
    download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded the files
    needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode [F8 key
    during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run in Safe
    Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

    When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive PDF help
    file.

    To use this utility, perform the following...
    Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
    Choose; Unzip
    Choose; Close

    Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
    { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

    NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go through your
    FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

    * * * Please report back your results * * *
