Last nite my PC behaves normally, but this morning, it took over 1

hour to boot up the XP.

Now, in the tasking tray, I see tons and tons of messages are being

sent out !

I have not configure this PC to send out emails. I use webmails. But

now my PC is sending out tons and tons of emails !!

The symantec norton antivirus is doing the "Symantec Email Scan" on

those emails and the emails are jamming up the system.

What can I do ????

What software should I use to remove this security breach ????

Please help !!!!

Thank you !!

The very first thing you should do is to disconnect the PC from any network

connection or telephone line, so that it cannot send anything. Then, you

can start scanning and manually searching for files that shouldn't be

running or in existence. Process Explorer and Hijack This are good

starting points.

Look for .exe and .dll files that have apparently random names. If you

delete them and new ones come back, there is another file that is creating

them you've missed.

Often these files are hidden away, so doing searches for hidden and system

files can often identify malware. Go to a command prompt, and from the

root directory use the dir command with the /a:h and /a:s switches to show

system and hidden files, and the /S switch to search all subdirectories.

At the end of the command, use the redirect to file to get a file you can

actually read: dir /ah /S >>list.txt

Clear all the temp folders and content.ie5 folders. This is a prime

location and entry point for malware. Look in the System32 folder for

files that shouldn't be there.

You can attach that drive to another well-protected system and scan it as a

hosted drive. Trying to gain control of an actively infected drive can be

difficult, but hosting it makes the process a lot easier since the

infections can't launch at boot.

Because you don't boot from it, there is very limited opportunity for

infection to spread to the host system. You might try using the Trend

Micro Housecall online scanner; since its files are online they are much

harder to compromise.

You should of course revert to the latest known clean state - which

ultimately means flatten and rebuild.

Well, that's a bit dire - it may not be at all necessary. It might be, but

it isn't the first thing I'd try.

1. Get some nice free spyware remover, or at least scanner to get the

names of parasites. SuperAntiSpyware or Malwarebytes anti-malware to

name a few that have free versions, spyware terminator, etc.

2. If you opt for software that offers free scans only (Spyware

Doctor, CounterSpy, SpySpweeper, etc), google for spyware names it

finds, there might be free solutions/information about these

parasites. Especially if you want to get out from this freely. You can

pay for them, if you wish.

3. Post hijackthis logs in forums and wait for help.

For the future, I strongly suggest updating browser if you still use

IE older than 6. IE 7 is much better if your PC can handle it.

Well, you've certainly picked up some malware. I wonder how Symantec

missed it.

I wish people would not confuse Norton AV with Symantec AV.

The difference between the corporate offering (Symantec AV) vs. the retail offering (Norton

AV) is night and day.

It is the retail version that ****** people off.

Well, I'm pretty ****** off at Symantec's abyssmal tech support for their

enterprise products, so I don't think I fall into the category of person to

which you refer. The only Symantec stuff I use at any client site is

BackupExec, and that's because I used to adore Veritas and Symantec hasn't

managed to entirely kill off that good product yet.

Problem is, you wouldn't be able to tell whether it is or not unless

you have a baseline.

Trial and error against malware is a common but very stupid approach.

Better stay away from IE completely (with IE7 on Vista in protected
