    I have a problem. My Norton Antivirus cannot start, it shuted down automatically. I bought McAfee Virus Scan 2004 ver 8.0 and couldn't install it because of the same reason.McAfee Online virus scan has found two infected files in my computer:
    C:\windows\system32\ccSort.exe
    C:\System Volume Information\...\A0000024.exe.
    Both files have infected by Morphine.
    Can somebody tell what is it and what i have to do? o_O

    I couldn't use my Norton Antivirus, because it shuted down automatically. I couldn't install McAfee Virus Scan 2004 ver. 8.0 because of the same reason.
    I have scaned my computer with Ad-aware 6.0 and with HijackThis.
    This is the result:

    Hi AZL,

    Welcome to Wilders.

    Check the following items in HijackThis.
    Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked:

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Configuration Loader] ccSort.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Configuration Loader] ccSort.exe

    Then reboot in Safe Mode and delete the following:

    ccSort.exe <-- You may have to do a serch (showing hidden and system files) to find it.

    Reboot and then post a fresh HijackThis log being sure to post the ENTIRE log including the header info.

    Regards,
    Kent

    Hi AZL,

    I just wanted to add that one of the infected files is in you System Restore.....

    To clean out your System Restore, do the following:

    Turn OFF System Restore.
    1. On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
    2. Click Properties.
    3. Click the System Restore tab.
    4. Check the box beside "Turn off System Restore".
    5. Click Apply, and then click OK.
    6. Restart the computer. (You must restart your computer to clear the old Restore Points)

    To Turn System Restore back ON.
    1. Follow the above Steps 1 to 3
    2. UNcheck the box beside "Turn off System Restore".
    3. Click Apply, and then click OK.
    4. Restart your computer.
    5. Then CREATE a new restore point.

    Regards,
    Kent
