If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options Use my Remove-it software it is free. If that does not work then run my
diagnostic program called What's live RN, that will generate a log file
which is much more in depth and more detailed then HJT. Send me a copy of
that log file for analysis. You can download both from my website here

>>I have a Windows XP Home SP2 PC infected with Vundo trojan. Norton AV

>> - Boot into Safe Mode.
>>
>> - Use VundoFix from atribune.org to scan and clean Vundo. It detects and

>>
>> - Restart the system and use NTFS4DOS from free-av.com to (clean) boot

>> created by the trojan. Delete all infected files that VundoFix fails to
>> delete in safe mode. All bad files are successfully deleted.
>>
>> - Restart the system into Safe Mode. Malicious files gets recreated.
>> They're back in place.
>>
>> - Use regedit in Safe Mode. Delete registry keys that should be there (I
>> know they're created by trojan). Key gets recreated in a split second as
>> soon as I delete it. This is why I know the trojan is alive in safe mode.
>>
>> - Remove the (infected) HD and install the HD in a clean PC as secondary
>> master. Then boot the PC (primary master - clean OS with Antivir virus
>> software installed). The system detects a new HD but does not assign a
>> drive letter. This means I can't access the data in the HD. Windows Disk
>> Management shows the new HD but does not 'mount' it or assign a drive
>> letter.
>>
>> I run out of ideas. My last resort would be reformat HD and reinstall the
>> OS but I don't want to lose the data. If I back it up, I'm afraid the
>> trojan will reinfect the PC when data is restored.
>>
>> Anyone has any ideas? Thanks.
