| If you are using any version of Sun Java that is prior to JRE Version 6.0,
| then you are strongly urged to remove any/all versions.
| There are vulnerabilities in them and they are actively being exploited.
|
| It is highly suggested that you update to the latest version which is Sun Java
JRE/JSE
| Version 6.0
|
| Simple check, look under...
| C:\Program Files\Java
|
| The only folder under that folder should be the latest version.
|
| Such as...
| C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0

| For non-viral malware...
|
| Please download, install and update the following software...
|
| * Ad-aware SE v1.06

| http://www.lavasoftusa.com/
| http://www.lavasoft.de/ms/index.htm
|
| * SpyBot Search and Destroy v1.4
| http://security.kolla.de/
| http://www.safer-networking.org/microsoft.en.html
|

|
| After the software is updated, I suggest scanning the system in Safe Mode.
|
| I also suggest downloading, installing and updating BHODemon for any Browser Helper
Objects
| that may be on the PC.

| For viral malware...
|
| * Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
| http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe
|
| 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.
|
| 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, Kaspersky, Exit this 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. http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm

Thanks Dave, this is going to be fun <groan> - will get back with results as soon as
I get a chance to work on the computer - which won't be until the weekend. In the
meantime, I can download the files I can from here. Have printed/saved the email.
