    OK, I am soo confused and overwhlemd by all this removal stuff and nothing is working.
    Yesterday the virtumonde decided to attatch itself into my registry, hkey_classes_root:msevents. 3 files that will not let me delete, or be removed by ANY spyware tool I have installed. Including the ones you listed here. I think I need step by step *instructions*, but this does ont allow my browswer to say open long enough to go thru them all, or crashes and I have to keep reopening..or it opens browser after browser until I have about 20 windows..!
    Ok, so now, what is my recourse. I turned off the syst restore (I have xp), I have hidden files not hidden. I d/l all the spyware programs, I have ad aware and I used trend today. Both find it. both say they will clean/delete it, but it never goes away.
    help?

    I FIXED IT!!! I used SPY SWEEPER and it was a 14 day trial...(worth the purchase now I think) and it got rid of it! (I hope) I found no files and nothing in my registry!!
    WOHOO!

    Go ahead and attach a current HJT log from normal mode to confirm your clean.
