I have a desktop and a laptop with the same virus / symptoms. The first being a pop-up stating that I have the worm.Win32.NetSky and a Windows Security Alert pop-up "Windows has detected an Internet attact attempt..." There have been three icons placed on my desk top "Error Cleaner", "Privacy Protector" and "Spyware and Malware Protection" They cannot be deleted from my desktop. Lastly the browser self directs itself to different spyware removal sites.
I have done all of the steps suggested before posting the thread, except I was unable to run the online scan Bitdefender. I have attached to this thread the HijackThis log and the runkeys.txt and newfiles.txt.
Please help in getting this removed. Prior to the suggstions from Magorgeeks I ran SmitFraudFix and it seemed to remove the virus only temporarily.
Please help on what to do next so that I do not have to reformat!!
Thanks in advance
