    My norton antivirus keeps telling me I have trojan.brisv.A!inf
    It tells me to download its removal software, but when I run it, it says the virus wasnt found. I got it from accidently dwnlding a zip file from limewire instead of the right file type. I deleted the file, but it has spread to my other ones. The only difference Ive noticed since its arrival is my YIM and IE keep crashing. I did all the things in the Read&Run and its still there. I have vista.

    Thanks

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    You don't need to start a new thread. You just need to attach the below two logs:

    • the log from Malwarebytes
    • and the requested MGlogs.zip file from running MGtools.

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)
    O2 - BHO: AskBar BHO - {201f27d4-3704-41d6-89c1-aa35e39143ed} - C:\Program Files\AskBarDis\bar\bin\askBar.dll
    O3 - Toolbar: Ask Toolbar - {3041d03e-fd4b-44e0-b742-2d9b88305f98} - C:\Program Files\AskBarDis\bar\bin\askBar.dll

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now uninstall the below software:
    Ask Toolbar <-- should have been uninstalled in step 1 of the READ ME
    Viewpoint Media Player <-- should have been uninstalled in step 1 of the READ ME

    I also recommend that you uninstall FrostWire. Did you notice that your problems began shortly after installing this and that AskBar also came with it.

    Now we need to use ComboFix again.
    • Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!
      • If it is not on your Desktop, the below will not work.
    • Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below quote box into it:
    • Save the above as CFscript.txt and make sure you save it to the same location (should be on your Desktop) as ComboFix.exe
    • At this point, you MUST EXIT ALL BROWSERS NOW before continuing!
    • You should have both the ComboFix.exe and CFScript.txt icons on your Desktop.
    • Now use your mouse to drag CFscript.txt on top of ComboFix.exe
    • Follow the prompts.
    • When it finishes, a log will be produced named c:\combofix.txt
    • I will ask for this log below
    Note:

    Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.


    Also delete all files in the below folders except ones from the current date (Windows will not let you delete the files from the current day).
    C:\Windows\Temp
    C:\Users\Guest 2\AppData\Local\Temp

    Now run Ccleaner!

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).

    Then attach the below logs:
    • C:\ComboFix.txt
    • C:\MGlogs.zip
    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!
