    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Not sure what link you are having a problem with. All of our links are fine.

    Note that this tool is rarely used anymore (for at least a year) since it was ineffective at finding and removing the newer versions of Vundo. It is basically obsolete since it has not been updated since Feb 2008 and other programs like Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware have superceded it.

    I got an error when I tried to run the program from Majors links. Went to the link I provided and had no trouble. So is it my computer ....... though I would help if someone else encountered an issue. I really appreciate this site and was just giving back if I could. Oh, and your right, It is ineffective.

    Which link specifically is it that you are referring to.

    Our download page is here: VundoFix and it works just fine.

    "Which link specifically is it that you are referring to"

    Which Vundo Fix link did you test?

    I have not seen more than five or six on this site.

    :)

    Since it is not effective I'm not sure why it is still on the site anyway, in fact we have probably spent too much time on this subject. But hey, thanks for all the stuff that does work and or is effective.

    That is why I asked you what link you are referring to that you thought was bad. The link I gave you is fine.

    For older infections where self help my still work.;)

    Have you run the program and tested to see if it installs and "Runs". If you did and everything is fine then I apologize. If you have not and decide to do so, and have the same difficulty as I did, then you can replace your link with the one I provided. It is possible that I am missing the required file for the install but I assumed it would have been included in the program itself. One would have to believe that If I am the only person having this issue then It must be on my end. The link I provided worked on my computer. The one of off MG download page did not. The reason I posted

    I agree that it could be useful for older versions of Vundo/Virtumond....If it installs and runs.

    Thanks for your time and have a great day.

    Yes as stated. It downloads and it runs just fine.


    There is no installation. You just run it after downloading it.


    Perhaps you are not clicking on the download links which are under the http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/download_ani.gif heading. The Author's Site link even goes direct to Atribune's download link which is no different than what you posted. And the two MajorGeeks links are just the exact same file saved to our mirrors.
