Re: Remove SpyFalcon

David H. Lipman expressed precisely :
From: "Postman delivers" <JR_the_Postman@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Is there a simple solution to removing this spyware, or malware?




Two part reply..

Perform Part 1 then perform Part 2.

If the first two parts don't work, perform the alternate utility.

It is suggested that you execute each tool in Normal Mode then in Safe Mode.

If you are using any version of Sun Java that is prior to JRE Version 5.0,
then you are strongly urged to remove any/all versions that are prior to JRE
Version 5.0. There are vulnerabilities in them and they are actively being
exploited.
It is possible that is how you got infected with malware.

Therefore, it is highly suggested that if there are any prior versions of Sun
Java
to Version 5 on the PC that they be removed and Sun Java JRE Version 5.0 Update 6 be installed ASAP.

Part 1
-----------

Use noahdfear's SmitFraud and SpyAxe removal tool -- SmitRem.exe
http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/click%20counter/click.php?id=1

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic43659.html


Part 2
-----------

Download SmitFraud.exe from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/SmitFraud.exe

Execute; SmitFraud.exe { Note: You must accept the default of C:\McAfee }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go
through your FireWall to enable WGET.EXE to download the needed McAfee related files.

Execute; c:\mcafee\clean.bat
{ or Double-click on 'Clean Link' in c:\mcafee }

A final report in HTML format called C:\mcafee\Normal_ScanReport.HTML or
C:\mcafee\Safe_ScanReport.HTML will be generated. At the end of the scan, it
will be displayed in your browser (Opera, FireFox or Internet Explorer).
However, if you are using WinXP, Win2K or Win2003 your system will be left in a state where you will have to manually shutdown/reboot the PC. On Win9x/ME
platforms the report will not be shown in your bowser but your PC will
automatically be shutdown. It is suggested that you move the report out of
c:\mcafee before performing another scan.

It would be best to scan in both Safe Mode and in Normal Mode and save a copy of the HTML report for each session.


ALTERNATE:

Secured2K's SpyAxe, PSGuard, Smitfraud, Sinnaka and Alemod removal tool.

NO, I have also tried all of your suggestion, and the suggestions on ad-aware and spybot searcgh and destroy forums...

It now places a false message infront of Microsoft anti-spyware notices, and when I run ad-aware & spybot search and destroy in safe mode the number of problems is growing, I now have 64, when it was only 8 early in the infection.

This company or indicvidual needs to be hunted down, and skined alive...

I have sent notes to ad-aware, and spybot search & destroy... next is the newsgroup for bit defender/anti-spyware...

Must have gotten a new varient from this person...
