Yay, Bestfriend.Scr again!! :)

Well, I knew i shouldn't have clicked it...but for some reason I did.

Okay, so i looked at like ALL of the posts about this virus, and nothing worked...because the files it was told to look for, i couldn't find.

So here's my Hijack log...maybe someone can help my poor soul out.

    I'm 99% positive that's bestfriends. They changed their usual "Runonce" reinfection meathod, and if removing that fixes the problem, a re-write of the guide will be in order.

    Please post back if that fixes it!

    okay...so I think I did the process wrong of deleting them

    I ran the log and just checked them off and said "fix checked" or whatever the option is...and then it doesn't show those anymore...

    But i think i was supposed to go into safe mode and do something. But none of the problems have been fixed yet.

    Here's my log as of now.

    well, assuming you dont have the bestfrienfds symptoms anymore, all you have to do is delete the MediaPIayer.exe file from your /windows/system32/ folder, and you're all set!
  • edited October 2004
    Well, I still have the Internet explorer doing the stupid "security" bar at the top...and won't let me go to hotmail....

    I mean, i can get around it...but it's annoying lol :)

    Anyway...Okay, so just go to Windows folder and find that file and delete it?

    Do I have to do it in safe mode?

    Drew
  • edited October 2004
    That security bar is important! It's apart of Service Pack 2.

    When you go to hotmail and that bar pops up, right-click it, and select "Install ActiveX Control" (or something which has the word install in it).
  • edited October 2004
    Oh well...sweet! :)

    Well then, i guess i'm confused...what exactly ARE the symptoms of the Bestfriends virus. Cause nothing weird ever really happend with my computer?
  • edited October 2004
    It says in the guide (at the beginning). An away message always pops up (in AIM), etc.
