Ramnit.A Trojan
Hey;
Using a Win7 x64 laptop. Hadn't noticed anything until I went to go on the MS website to check something with my wireless not connecting after hibernation/sleep and it said the page can't be displayed but all others worked... Then instantly MSE said Ramnit.A had been discovered and quarantined. Found it's put some stuff in the startup/msconfig - random named files which look like a .txt icon on fire? Gotta note that there hasn't been any issues with the laptop except this. Everything else is running fine - just the alert came up and I found the dodgy files. Rebooted with networking and it doesn't seem to be a problem here, ran malware, mcafee stinger, MSE and AVG full scans but nothing found - I know it's still going to be there though. Ive read that a reinstall of the OS is usually required and the pc can never be "trusted" again - but I think I've got it quite quickly so hoping it's not infected many files .. Yet. I don't have a boot disk for the laptop so is there any other way I can format it if it's needed - I'm sure Win7 has a built in utility..? So - basically - what steps can I take towards this? I've read about the combofix etc but been warned against using it unless told...

Re: Ramnit.A Trojan
Hey;
Scans came back clean - although I ran this in safe mode... There's no option to export a log from ESET when it's came back clean (or there is and I can't see it) Shall I try it with a normal boot rather than safe mode?

Re: Ramnit.A Trojan
Yes, just to be sure, run it once in normal mode.
