Subject: Off Topic: VIRUS FOUND
Hi Gang,This morning on starting up my Pc, the
F-Prot anti-virus program i use onstartup told me it found a virus called
VBS/Haptime.A (Could not deletethe file)I
immediately ran a F-Prot scan with the option: Automatically
disinfect.It deleted 28 files as these were already destroyed by the
virus and thuscould not be disinfected anymore.These files were
all located in C:\Windows\web.Some examples:
C:\Windows\web\offline.htm
\controlp.htt
\dialup.htt
\sysroot.htt The question is How do I locate and delete the virus
itself ?? And where does this virus come from ???My logic
would be 1) delete the virus 2) delete
the infected files 3)reinstall/putback
these files from the Win-cd-RomBut how can I be sure the virus is gone
?I did a search for VBS/Haptime.A (before the F-prot scan) but nothing
wasfound.Anybody ??Rgds.Frans
