How ever: I personally wouldn't trust a system anymore, which has been infected with such a crap. In this cases, secure your data to an external HDD or flash drive and re-install Windows, even if your anti-virus program has removed the shit. Who knows if there is such other crap in background like keyloggers, other spy- or malware which has not been detected by Gdata & co. (I know, I am a little bit paranoid ) Awards

Microsoft Command Prompt "attrib" is a very useful tool to check if your hard drives even your flashdisks have been infected by a virus. You will know if a Malware is inside your hard drive just by looking at the attributes of each files and the file that has the attributes of +s +h +r The function of attrib is to set and remove file attributes (read-only, archive, system and hidden). Launch attrib To start attrib Go to Start Menu > Run Type cmd (cmd stands for command prompt) Press Enter key The Command Prompt will appear showing us where is our location in the directory.

And by the way I can remove that virus or any other virus in just a few minutes and that virus that you had was the most common threat these days and its called AV8 & AV9 and is commonly thwarted as many other skins hiding itself.
