VIRUS REMOVING

TODAY I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE U THE REMOVAL OF HERSS.EXE VIRUS

It is my earnest request to all readers to be little bit careful with Virus & Trojans in today's world of Piracy, Information theft, etc. Please don't be ignorant & have a casual approach towards keeping your data safe & secure. Keep a constant vigil on any suspicious activities on your PC. If you are not knowledgeable enough, ask someone rather than ignoring things. Have FREE Antivirus & Firewall applications like Avast & ZoneAlarm installed on your home PC's. Remember, in today's connected world Internet is the main medium through which infections are spread. Keep your computer safe from prying eyes. Even if you are associted with IT, enroll yourself for a basic Computer course & learn some important things.


If you feel that your PC has been infected, execute msconfig from Start -> Run, go to Startup tab & look for a startup entry pointing to "C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Temp\herss.exe". Once the entry is found, uncheck it, save changes & reboot the PC. The Trojan is now unloaded from your OS memory.
Now remove the final traces of the Trojan by manually deleting ph.exe, autorun.inf & herss.exe from the mentioned directories.
If you are unable to enable "Show Hidden Files and Folders", enable it by following one of the methods listed at Technize website. I used Method 3 & it worked fine for me.

Check that your Antivirus software is up to date.
