srosa - can't eradicate!!!

pearlypuff · Sep 20, 2008

Hi I hope you can help me.

I have the virus 'srosa.sys' on my xp system and have tried to get rid of it without success.

I have read up on how to do on here, but have one problem. I can't locate it on my hard drive or in the 'drivers' folder mentioned. That folder is not showing up in my windows/system32 area.

I am fairly computer literate and am very frustrated by this horrible virus - but now need more expert help.

Can u advise my next step to get rid of 'srosa.sys' bug...

Thank you

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.

Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.

Notes:

If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can run the steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:

Starting your computer in Safe mode

If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
