A fix for FileError_22001

[Guest Max in KL]

Has anybody found a fix for FileError_22001?

 

Why are all the anti virus companies so quiet on this virus, I spent an hour

in a chat room with Norton, no help, no advice, just the offer three times of

connecting straight to my computer for 120 AU$ which I found strange as I

live in malaysia.

 

I have lost over 3,000 photo's due to the corruption caused by

FileError_22001 I'm guessing there are lots of others badly affected loosing

word, excel and JPEG files to the ravages of this nasty Malware. My fiance is

really upset as all our personal photos are lost too.

 

Any assistance greatfully accepted on how to restore these corrupted files.

Right now this appears to be a new case of cryptivirology. I haven't seen ANY corrective

procedures yet on the encrypted data.

The best I can tell from some Googling is that the "malware" was yet another

trojan downloader. Unfortunately, it's beginning to look like the "payload"

program corrupts those files by overwriting - the simple solution is to

replace

corrupted files with ones from your known clean backups.

 

I know, I know, it's not something you want to hear - but this (corruption)

is why you need to implement a backup strategy. Unfortunately there is no

way to prevent this kind of intentional corruption any more than there is a

way to prevent sudden harddrive failure.

 

Always make backups.

I wish you had let me know you posted to the SpyKiller as I suggested.

Hopefully the ball will get rolling.

Sounds like a plan.

 

OK, I have downloaded the TE33Decryptor and am running it now.

 

In the information window it reads as follows

 

Searching for main key...Found!

Search and decrypting files:

C:\Documents and settings\my name\local settings\application data\CDD

 

So it seems to be churning away at the moment

 

In the address bar on the bottom, the file number is ticking away.

 

During the process the c drive hit capicity so I was looking for files that

I could delete, however the only folder with any files with size that I could

find were in

 

C:\Documents and settings\my name\local settings\application data\FLR

 

So I am moving half of the contents of the folder to a USB memory stick

while the app runs in the background.

 

It is clearing some space on the c drive but I have no idea how it will

effect the app.

 

I'm hoping the CDD folder and FLR folder are both the same as they had the

same number of files and were the same size before I moved half the folders

from the FLR folder.

 

RESULT === WE HAVE A RESULT Waaahoooo!!!!!

 

Photos seem to be returning.

 

Merry Christmas to all.

 

Thanks to David H. Lipman, but special thanks to DrWeb who has made our

Christmas.

 

Dear DrWeb,

 

I can't tell you how much you have made our christmas.

 

You are a wondeful person.

 

I'm not sure how you managed it but there is a very happy house here tonight.

 

May you have a wonderful Xmas.

 

If you can see fit to contacting me directly I would like to say thanks

personally.

 

Most Sincere Thanks and a Very Merry Christmas.

Hi,

I have managed to download the TE33Decryptor and started to run it but

the main key was not found and therefore not been able to recover all

my photo's?

I've recovered about 10% of my JPEG images though and for that I am so

gratefull as I thought that I would never see some of these photo's

ever again.

Any ideas why it hasn't been able to encrypt all the other photo's?

 

Many thanks to drweb for your help recover these important files not

just for me but everyone else around the world - MERRY CHRISTMAS

drweb,

 

I downloaded your fix for this $%#^))#@ problem, my wife lost all her photos

and family history files. Not to mention other documents. Your program told

me it couldn't find the main key, and I was unable to recover any of the

files. I don't know if my wife removed that info, when she tried to restore

and reload her hard drive (I was away at the time).

 

I have removed her hard drive and conected it to my note book (i back up

almost daily), I have done a search of all files created or modified on the

day her computer got hit (it appears she reloaded almost all of her programs

on that day). My question is what and where would I look on that hard drive

for the main key?

 

Would it be in a main registry file or a sub folder. If she hadn't reloaded

all the programs, it would have been easier for me to look, or send you dvd's

of all the files that had been created/modified on that day.

 

Please help, because I wasn't here it's my fault :}
