A weird problem

Hi,

This is a problem I am having on a client's pc. I uninstalled Norton's AV completely, then installed NOD32 and updated. Every time I run a scan, NOD will run for about 10-15 seconds then suddenly exits. I have uninstalled and reinstalled - same problem

Have also scanned with Spybot, Spyware Guard, Spyware Blaster and Spysweeper and removed all spyware. Funny thing is when I run TDS it also runs for a couple of seconds then exits. Have tried NOD for DOS as well.

When I run in safe mode this problem does not occur. I am sure there is a wiser person than me out there with the solution to this problem. Any takers?

Thanks for any help...much appreciated.

OS is WinXP Home with SP1 and latest win updates.

Restart Windows in safe mode. Run NOD32 with switch /ah.

Thanks Izi,

I'll give that a go and let you know the results.

This is a symptom of Agobot. If you run NOD32 scanner with the /ah switch in safe mode and it detects a probable NewHeur_PE virus, choose to rename the file and send it to samples@nod32.com

 

To Izi and Marcos,

Thank you both for your help. Mission successful...NOD detected two files in the System32 folder as NewHeur_PE viruses. I will zip them up and forward onto samples@eset.com.
