Hello there

I have what seems to be a nasty virus.

I was on a website, not an unusual or naughty one!!! And suddenly my computer closed down. I switched it back on, tried to fire up firefox, and it automatically went to a screen saying I needed to download some virus software. Same with Explorer. These windows starting closing themselves down as quick as I could open them.
I ran my free AVG scan, and a spyware doctor scan, and they turned up nothing.

What appeared to be my windows firewall thing popped up and said I had win32.zafi.b

I did manage to download what appeared to be a removal program for said virus, and it turned up nothing. But now I'm reading that there are new visuses around, which pose as other viruses.

Now firefox doesn't open at all, messenger doesn't open and explorer does for a bit but then closes. I'm doing all this forum stuff through another computer, which I am borrowing.

I'm REALLY hoping you guys can help me.

I've read the forum, and here is the log... I am not very computer competent, so please excuse me if I am slow on the uptake =)

There it is. Smile...


  • Now open a new notepad file.
  • Input this into the notepad file:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    "vinclock"=-


  • Save this as fix.reg, save it to your desktop.
  • Double click fix.reg to run it.

Please download the Pocket Killbox from HERE

1. Open the Killbox.
2. Under "Full path of file to delete", copy and paste in the following:

C:\Documents and Settings\Joe\Application Data\Google\ocboo1892823.exe

3. Press the Red X to delete the file.
4. It will ask if you want to make a backup of the file we deleted, select Yes to the prompt.
5. It will now delete the file, and popup with another prompt saying so, press Ok.
6. Close the Killbox.

step one - CHECK.

Step two... Killbox... no check. "This file does not seem to exist".

Is that bad?

No, DDS newly created files didn't list so I suspected it didn't exist, but wanted to try killing it anyway to make sure.

What problems remain?

=D I reconnected to the internet just now after you asked what problems remain and I'm happy to report that I believe it's working as it was before!!! So unless you know of some herpes-like traces that get left behind, I think I'm all cool!!!
You think?

Thank you so much for your help. It's bonkers that so many people - me included - are so reliant on something that we just DO NOT understand. There is NO WAY ON EARTH I could have worked out any of what you took me through - even having been shown it, I still don't understand what we did! So really, thank God that there are dudes like you stopping us from being kicked around =)
Thanks a million for your help.
I will recommend the site at any possible occasion.

Yeah, and I will continue to fight the good fight.
Please delete DDS.com and Killbox.exe from your desktop.
Then delete the Killbox folder here in bold:
C:\!Killbox

Right!! I made a start on this but will have to continue tomorrow as I'm getting diminishing returns from my brain - it's way past my bed time here in the UK. I will complete the tidy-up and report back tomorrow!

Sounds like you've worked in the industry. The Fight sounds fascinating, I don't know the details of how and why this stuff comes about - maybe you shoudl have a section on yoru website! Or maybe that's looking for trouble, who knows.

Thanks again though and I'll check back when I've done these bits.
