Super Virus

1

I have this crazy virus. There’s a program called WScript.exe that runs at startup and uses 90% of the CPU. It keeps on recreating in C:/WINNT/system32. It causes my computer to beep and click like none other. Luckily, I can “end task” it with my Windows 2000 task manager.

So, I was considering to buy Norton Anti-virus. I go to the official website. Seconds later, my browser closes automatically. Then I go to Amazon to try to buy it; browser closes again! Then my cousin suggests that I go to Microsoft.com and learn how to set up a firewall. You guessed it; the browser shuts down. I think that this virus scans the websites I go to and shuts it down if it finds anything that can be used to stop it.

I’m not kidding. Does anyone know what this is all about? I already ran Ad-aware and Spybot, but the virus still remains.

I figured out how to open up windows xp in safe mode - except it freezes when I try and do that! (My virus senses are tingling) Anyway, I’ve discovered some suspicious entries in my startup thingy. they are:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MicroSoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents\IMAIL
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MicroSoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents\MAPI
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MicroSoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents\MSFS
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MicroSoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents\MAPI

yes, I know MAPI appeared twice. Now, I call them suspicious only because EasyCleaner 2.0 says that it is suspicious/to difficult to pinpoint.

I’ve discovered the source of the problems on my computer. A file called netdc. what a bastard that was.
