I am a victim of the "Aurora" explorer popups and that friggin Nail.exe file which shows up everywhere. I have searched through my computer with Ad-Aware SE, Spyware Doctor, Norton Antivirus, SpywareBlaster, Spybot SOD and XoftSpy.
XoftSpy actually found and determined the presence of "Aurora" as well as the "Nail.exe"-file and was able to remove those. But still, as soon as I restart my computer, they're all back in their regular places and popups swirling around the screen.
I have downloaded the latest Hijackthis and run a search immediately after regular windows startup and included the log-file beneath. Huge thanks to anyone who might take the time and go through this and hopefully help me to solve this problem. Whatever instructions I get I intend to save for any eventual future Aurora sicknesses.
Any info on how to prevent Aurora in the future would also be greatly appreciated !
Thanks !
