Trojan.sm.fb, determined to stay and won't go away!

5 min read

This thread's last reply is from September 28, 2006, 6:37 AM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

I have tried to remove this stubborn little trojan, but to no avail! I am using a work laptop, so now adminstrator priviledges. Ewido has an error during cleaning and as such it seems I am still infected. The main problem is that when I go to google anything, it takes three hits on the web link before I get to that site. The first two hits take me to a redirected site -- very annoying!!

Hi dowprice
Sorry for the delay. Am looking over your log now.
Will be back in a few minutes. However would like to know if you have an IT department that takes care of your computers. I do not want to step on their toes or do something that will break something that they have set up.
You should know that it can be close to imposible to clean a computer when you can not get Administrator Priveliges. The infections can hide in places that are out of reach from your account.
While we appreciate that you may be busy, it has been 10 days or more since we heard from you.

Infections can change and fresh instructions will now need to be given. This topic is now closed, if you still require assistance then please start a new topic in the Malware Removal Forum
