    hi, i am yet another person who has been hit with the virus "cp1041" i really dont know how i got this as i am one of the safest web users around.

    every time i log on the file keeps reappearing. And i remove it via AVG.

    Should i be doing this?

    Effects of this trojan:

    ~ Rebooting when running downloaded programmes.
    ~ Rebooting when attaching USB devices. (sometimes)
    ~ Internet connection Sometimes disconnects.


    I need a step by step guide to removing this completely.

    I will post anything required for the removal of this hideous virus.

    Many Thanks To All Helpers In Advance.

    EDIT: I read the READ & RUN ME section and it made no sense really.

    i have dowloaded ccleaner, when i tried to install it it said theres a missing file. "ccleaner.exe"

    i downloaded HJT & SUPERAntiSpyware.

    I need to know what logs you require.

    Everything is explained in the READ & RUN ME instructions you need to complete all steps in the order given. Don't skip around and you should be able to complete them. The list of required logs is given at the end of the instructions. SUPERAntispyware was one of them. ComboFix and MGlogs.zip were the others. The READ ME did not ask you to download HijackThis.

    If you cannot run CCleaner then just run the below instead:

    Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune. This program does not require an installation. The executable actually runs the program.

    NOTE: This program is for Windows XP and Windows 2000 only. ATF Cleaner will remove all files from the items that are checked so if you have some cookies you'd like to save. Please move them to a different directory first.
    • Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
    • Under Main choose: Select All
    • Click the Empty Selected button.
    If you use Firefox browser
    • Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
    • Click the Empty Selected button.

    If you use Opera browser
