hiya all,
i was wondering if anyone can help....im running XP home
ok the other day i downloaded a software (dvdclone trial version ), when promted to save i got to pop-ups , one for the software and another that looked like it was part of the software, however as you've guessed one was a virus "paytime.exe" some sort of HJ software. anyway i have a managed to find and delete the software via systme32 folder and after running norton,spybot and ad-ware it seems to have gone, although sometimes i get the message from norton saying it has stopped a file trying to gain access, when checking log it says paytime.exe, so im guessing some components are still on my laptop.
ive stopped using my laptop now and was wonder what i can do to resolve this?
heres a few things ive tried.........
ive ran a number of trojan software - still not found any traces
ive restored my laptop to a previous date - but still get the message (norton)
Changed IE settings to factory settings - no luck their either
from RUN i used the command in the cmd section of this site to see if i had a any traces of spyware but nothing appeared in the table so im guessing its safe
ok finally something that is playing on my mind...i went into my add/remove folder and found programs that i haven’t seen before and something weird
1. ok il start the with the weird thing......when my add/remove programs window opens, and normally when you highlight a program you have the option on the right to remove or change , however this option seem to have gone missing on all my software’s, anyone shed some light on that please?
2. These are the programs in my add/remove programs that i don’t recognise
CC_ccProxyExt
CcCommon
CcPxyCore
MSRedist
OpenMG Secure Module
SymNet
SPBBC
Windows Genuine Advantage v1.3.02
Ive checked these software to see if ive got them on this machine and I cant see them so im guessing they are either something to do with Norton as ive got Mcaffee on this machine or they are part of the virus paytime.exe
any help would be much appreciated.
