Guys,

Quick question. My server recently got the Malware SpyGuard 2009 on it. I went though, did a Spybot S+D on it and hopefully when I get home I will not have to do any more...

Question is, where the hell are these things coming from? I have AntirVir, SD, and Spybot S+D on there, as well as the typical Windows useless firewall. How is this getting installed?

The only questionable site I visit is Mininova for all my....Documentaries. Is this an invasive Javascript imbedded in an advertisement? How can it install itself w/o being clicked on? How do I stop it? How do I keep the cat from licking my stereo speekers?

------------------------------ Mmmmmmmm...Beer.......

"The only questionable site" Are you mad? All sites are questionable, a spot of SQL injection and most any site is now a vector for spreading malware.

As for the cat, get a rabid dog.

I tried, but she licked him too.

Now he growls at me when I go near them. Shows that even a Rabid Dog is a sucker for a bit of kitty licking.......

I tried. Problem is, it makes DLing the link a PITA.....

AdAware seemed to help, but that made the page take forever to load as it waited and timed out on a lot of the ads.....

Have you done the full immunize with S&D? I find that together with flash block and ad block + seems to take care of an awful lot of it.

Reply to audiovoodoo

I am going to have to block flash and ads with the server. I really do not need much on there anyway.

Full immunize? Maybe, when I first got it, but I have not looked much since. I will have to go home and see what popped up. If it still gives me problems, I might post the HJT log on here, or try my luck up in the "legit" forums up top.

But so far, Malware and S+D seem to be the prescription. Maybe ComboFix. (My scanner does not like some components of that though...).

Irritating when the main thing you use it for are the TV shows you missed.....

Use a private tracker. Mininova is for noobs. A decent private tracker will get you better speeds and faster pre times.

Sorry to rant on here but this is a pain in the arse.

spyware guard 2009 is the part of spyware guard 2008, Spyware Guard 2008, is new counterfeit anti-spyware software thats created to invade your privacy and ruin the Internet community. Just like most fake antispywares, Spyware Guard 2008 issues misleading and exaggerated results. it usually installed itself onto your PC without your permission, through Vundo Trojan, Virus or fake software. it will display fake system alerts or fake security alerts to trick user to buy the paid version of SpywareGuard2008 , in order to remove the potential and reported problems. Not only does it cause your machine to slow down dramatically, it would also put your privacy and data in risk.

look some people I know have had to re-install windows after this or you can try the manual way and down load the link below.

If you want to rant or warn about malware, then use this forum: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/forum-49-321.html

The Other is really not the "forum" for discussions about security/malware apps ... unless you're just lonely ... :sarcastic:

Hey Ninj, looks like your problem can be sorted by a simple cut and paste from an imbecile.

Bang on the money about the vundo.trojan. Though how a five year old piece of code is running on your system is the real question.

I wonder if the culprit could be W32.Ackantta.B@mm. A much more likley candidate, seeing as it's recent and known to be dropping the vundo initial after infection.

Clean Install time.....

Reply to RCPilot

IIRC, you can do a system restore to a point before the bug arrived. You should then be able to clean it off completely.

Run a couple of AV on-line scanners in safe mode with networking. I've found that many of this crap get's into the system 32 files and can't be cleaned when windows in fully running - I use the free on-line scanners from ESETNod32 and DitDefender ... and there are others.

Turpit, please stop posting ugly men with mullets and skullets.
I'll be forced to pay E2D to hide under your bed.

You can redeem yourself by posting photos of your wife, girlfriend, sisters, your sister's girlfriends, mom and grandmom's tits for me to masturbate to at my leisure.

Turp....That's Mrs Phillips.

Does the Wingding know you have a picture of Mrs. Phillips?

Has anyone noticed the fat guy with the skullit has a pistol and a revolver in his gut belt? As well Mr. Fail Skullit has several boxes of ammunition on the entertainment/utility shelf?

I certainly hope everyone realizes this guy has surpassed going postal by a factor of ten.
