Default Iraq_oil

Hello all,

I was wondering if someone has any REMOVAL instructions for the W32.HLLW.Lioten virus (im not sure if its categorised as virus or trojan, so sorry if i put it in the wrong forum) which creates IRAQ_OIL.exe.


Thnx so much for your input.

I don't have removal instructions but this decribes the worm and most importantly how to close the security hole that IO uses:

Hey thnx for the support !

Did the online scan and it deleted most entries, except for this one :

c:\WINNT\system32\sus\explorer.exe

It was in use

Is this related to that virus as well?

thnx so much

It would not surprise me if you have Trojan Flood.BI.DR, which is doing the rounds, which adds explorer.exe

Might pay you to do an online scan at trendmicro
