    Hey guys.

    I have a problem with the 'Vundo' virus.

    It seems that the registry keys jsut wont go away, ive tried running CC Cleaner, SpyHunter3, Mcafee Security Suite, Registry Mechanic, Windows Defender, VundoFix, and ive managed to remove 3 of the main .dll's which were converting my new links it seems which i would type into totally different addresses, so now it seems as if its not so bad but i would still need help removing the registry keys..

    I've tried manually deleting the registry keys in safe mode though no luck.

    Thats a screenshot of the infected registry keys, im not sure if there are any more but i have no idea where to go from here.. Any help to save me from reformatting would be greatly appreciated.

    Josh.

    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.


    • If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.
    Notes:
    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can run steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.

    Okay! Just run as many steps as possible and attach all of the logs once complete.
