Please read Rorschach112's instructions in this thread!

I've never had a serious infection, use NOD32, a couple anti-spywares, mostly surf sandboxed and always safe! However, having said that, this person instructs the owner of the infected PC to use a number of applications I've never heard of, including: RSIT, SDFix, OTCCeanIT, and OTMoveIt. So three questions: Were all of these steps necessary? Have you ever heard of those apps? Would it be a good idea to print and/or save the link to those instructions for worse case scenario? Thank You!

Were all of these steps necessary?
- More than likely, he be a helper, he knows his ****

Have you ever heard of those apps?
- Yes I have, specialist tools called upon when needed.

Would it be a good idea to print and/or save the link to those instructions for worse case scenario?
- Only if you know what you do. In worst case scenario I'd do a format or ask in specialist forum for removal help

 

Ya, they are tools to remove hard malwares, especially rootkits. I don't think that best solution is to format always and anyways, but I agree that if the system is deeeply infected by multiple malwares or rootkits, to format the system is the better surety to delete really all.

 

Were all of these steps necessary?
- Yes

Have you ever heard of those apps?
- Yes. Don't use them yourself though as it can be dangerous

Would it be a good idea to print and/or save the link to those instructions for worse case scenario?
- No. If you have malware problems go post on a Malware Removal forum. The instructions for each user are always different. A step that worked for him, wont necessarily work for you


Hope that helps

 

Thank you Rorschach112! Here is hoping I never meet (need) you!
