Re: Cleaning mom's machine remotely

Well her antivirus picked it up eventually took a few days for the sig to get it. But the cure was worse then the disease it removed the file but left the entry in the registry in the userinit key. So now when she starts the machine it just logs on then logs back off again.
Which antivirus is she using ?

Just out of curiosity, what virus(es) did she pick up? I had a friend with a recent infection that his SAV didn't pick up, it turned out to be a dropper and a bot/rootkit. I recommended a scratch and reload.
