Edit: 5th Dec ‘08: I have dropped in a line to McAfee’s Webimmune service and submitted the symptoms and the manifestations of the virus. Expecting a reply soon.

A request: Please read this post and Part 1 carefully. I have removed this virus from my PC and i have written the experience here. In case this doesn’t work , i will try my best to help you. Do drop me a line though whether it worked or not. See the edit in the end.

A few days ago i wrote about how i got a work around solution forthe virus affecting system file rundll32.exe without any antivirus at hand: How To Remove Virus Affecting rundll32.exe: Part 1 and felt that there was the need for a permanent solution.

So here is the software for removing the virus

Download Spyware Terminator 2.2.2.438 from cnet

OR

Download  Spyware Terminator from its site

SOME MORE SYMPTOMS;

I found that if your PC is infected with this virus you may not be able to install certain programs and get a FEAD error and/or a text document is created by the name _Nosso_error.log with the error details.

Like while my PC was infected i was unable to install McAfee and Acrobat Reader.

While installing Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional, i got the following error message in the log file which i talked about above.

The system cannot find the file specified.

File: F:\Krutika_software\Adobe Acrobat Pro Ver 8\.exe
Info ID: 2.1073.03.2.10054
Please send the Info ID to http://www.adobe.com/misc/bugreport.html

So if you get such errors without any reason, then suspect this virus.

Please report dead links in comments and also if the posts were helpful to you

WHAT TO DO IF THIS DOESN’T WORK?

EDIT: One of the readers has responded that the solution doesnt work. It worked in my case though.

Still lets see if this helps. You can try downloading THREATFIRE. The odds of this working to remove your virus are 8 to 10.

And yes do drop me a comment on whether this works or not.
