Antivirus Software Alert - Please Help

Hi

I am using Windows Vista and now my laptop is infected with a virus. I get "Application cannot be executed. The file Wuauclt.exe is infected. Do you want to activate your antivirus software now?" message with Yes and No button.

I am not able to open any application in my laptop. Not even MS DOs prompt.

I need your help and direction to fix this issue.

Thanks
Sriram

Hi, Welcome to GeekPolice.net!

Could you please go into Safe Mode with Networking and run this:

To get into Safe Mode with Networking please restart your computer and rapidly tap F8 until it asks what mode you want to boot into, please choose Safe Mode with Networking, then download and run the following:

Please download and run RKill.

Download mirror 1 - Download mirror 2 - Download mirror 3

• Save it to your Desktop.
  
• Double click the RKill desktop icon.
  
• It will quickly run and launch a log. If it does not launch a log, try another download link until it does.
  
• Please post its log in your next reply.
  
• After it has run successfully, delete RKill.

Note: This tool only kills the active infection, the actual infection will not be gone. Once you reboot the infection will be active again! Please do not reboot until instructed further to do so.
