Anyone ever dealt with a Vundo/Virtumonde virus?
I keep trying to get rid of the thing and then it comes back on re-boot. I would rather not spend money trying to get some virus expert to get rid of it if I can do it myself. Just seeing if anyone has experienced this and if so, what they've done.

I wish I had more info to give you, but I had a Vundo virus maybe a year or two ago and was able to get rid of it. Considering I'm pretty shitty at dealing with that sort of thing, I'm sure you can do it too.
I do still have a program on my desktop called "VundoFix" so maybe you can search for that. |
Logan is right, there is an exe from Symantec that does a good job of nuking it.
Trojan.Vundo Removal Tool - Symantec.com Run that with a full spybot, ad-aware (both free) & whatever anti-virus scan you have and you should be OK. I don't remember if you need HijackThis to remove objects on boot, I think the vundofix program might do all that for you. |
Damn thing wouldn't go away. I took it to the school's IT and they couldn't get rid of it. Since I have pretty few important documents, I just saved them on flash and did a clean install of Vista. Hopefully I can stay virus-free this time around.
Thanks for the suggestions though. |
