+1 for combofix at home. -----Original Message----- From: Gene Giannamore [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 03, 2011 12:05 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Fake antivirus
Had very good luck so far using combofix, Malwarebytes, and viper. Although 1 computer running XPsp3 is now very slow and the user does not want a wipe. I found combofix http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix here. I do not follow the directions completely; I don't post the log file to any forum. I do, disable AV, run updated combofix, enable AV, run malwarebytes. If there is anything still going on, I'll do a quick scan with superantispyware then investigate manually (registry, running processes, files).

I've already got Vipre Rescue and Malware Bytes on a memory stick. I've also got RKILL. I haven't had to deal with any fake antivirus in a few weeks. Just wondering if they have developed any new tricks recently that I should be aware of? Oh, this user had Vipre Home on his PC, and got infested anyway. Should I submit samples to Sunbelt (assuming I can find where they're quarantined)???
