Subject: Off Topic: VIRUS FOUND
Hi Gang,
This morning on starting up my Pc, the F-Prot anti-virus program i use on
startup told me it found a virus called VBS/Haptime.A (Could not delete
the 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 thus
could 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-Rom
But how can I be sure the virus is gone ?
I did a search for VBS/Haptime.A (before the F-prot scan) but nothing was
found.
Anybody ??
Rgds.
Frans
