My son's experiment with Net_Devil

Win32/NetDevil.10.B trojan (as identified by NOD the next morning after I came home from work and did the morning scan, that is).

Now, since NOD couldn't fix the trojan - how do I get rid of it? Supposedly, the boys only d/l'ed it and didn't set it up.

Screenshots of alerts follow.

Sorry if I'm asking the obvious: When you empty your trashcan, do the RECYCLER ones still show up after that?

 

Yup. Pete

 

Is this any help: http://bizforums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,,0xae2731ec5e34d711abdc0090277a778c,00.html ?

 

Can't get it to buy the RECYCLER part (in either upper or lower case).

 

Try scanning your pc in save mode. Maby Nod32 can delete the files then.

Have you tried to delete it with the on-demand scanner ?

Occasionally files (and more often, folders) in the NTFS Recycler can be a bit problematical. I've had a few myself which just didn't want to go away. BCWipe from Jetico has always worked for me.

 

Hi Pete,

yes - pls. delete it with the NOD32 on-demand scanner.

Cheers,

jan

The correct syntax would be C:\Recycler ... but type it at the C:\> prompt.

(I don't think attributes are the problem.)

 

Thank you everyone.

Rod - BCWipe finally got it. In the middle of a full scan right now with NOD (pretty sure it's gone, though - it only took a couple of minutes into the scan before the warning notification popped up before).

Anyhow, going offline now to finish scanning and do comp maintenance, just wanted to thank everyone. Pete
