i ran a scan on pandasoftware and came up with dyfuca infection somewhere in the registry.. thats all the free scan told me . i tried all cwshredder, sybot, adaware,spy sweeper, norton and wouldnt clean it. it still shows up on pandasoftware, what else can i do.. i tried to post on spyware and adaware but it wouldnt let me access it .....
Hi Diablo, since you are using Norton, there is more information here. Hope this help... Let us know how you go. Cheers
i ran the removal tool from norton and showed nothing but it keeps showing up on the pandasoftware freescan online. after reading some info, dyfuca goes by another name "internet Optimizer", so i ran a find, search in the registry using internet optimizer and found a total of two internet optimizers which i deleted both and the infection didnt show up a new pandasoftware scan... whether its a false positive that i dont know, it could have been web accelerator software that i had on my hard drive
have you tried to manually remove it? Manual removal Please follow the instructions below if you would like to remove DyFuCA manually. Please notice that you must follow the instructions very carefully and delete everything that is mentioned. In most cases the removal will fail if one single item is not deleted. If DyFuCA remains on your system after stepping through the removal instructions, please double-check by stepping through them again. 1. Start the registry editor. This is done by clicking Start then Run. (The Run dialog will appear.) Type regedit and click OK. (The registry editor will open.) 2. Delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Classes \ CLSID \ {8F4E5661-F99E-4B3E-8D85-0EA71C0748E4}, if it exists. 3. Delete 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ Browser Helper Objects \ {8F4E5661-F99E-4B3E-8D85-0EA71C0748E4}, if it exists. 4. Exit the registry editor. 5. Restart your computer. 6. Delete Wsem*.dll, where * represents 3 random digits. 7. Delete "c:\Programs Files\dialers\". bazooka instuctions

Re: dyfuca removal http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/pest/pest.aspx?id=453076438 Go to this page, will show you step-by-step how to remove it. AOL spyware found it for me today, luckily before it had a chance to install all the associated programs. Another idea is to have your phone company block 900 dialing if you are on dialup. Whodart
