Re: Have Virus - Need Help



Whoops, I didn't realize I was implying that the Multi_AV was a substitute
for full-time anti-virus protection.

To remove any and all viruses use David Lipman's Multi_AV tool:

Please change the wording of this advice. As David would tell you, his
Multi_AV utility, while excellent, is a *first-run* antivirus tool. It
will not remove "any and all viruses" nor should it be viewed as a
substitute for a full-featured antivirus.

As you correctly point out, the OP has not told us what antivirus he has
installed. He should run Multi_AV or Sysclean and then proceed with
other non-viral scanning and updating his computer. Installing a
full-featured current version (not earlier than 2005) antivirus after
using the first-line av tool is imperative.
