There's this executable file in my pc. I don't know how it got there, maybe from someone's removable hard disk or smthing. Point is, it won't go away. First I tried deleting. Worked. For a few seconds. When I closed the window, and re-opened, there it was like nothing ever happened. Fine.
Then I tried reformatting the partition that it came in. Yup, the whole damm partition. Worked. Again, for a few seconds. It just came back stronger than ever (so i'd think, LOL)
Then I tried deleting it in my registry editor.
I found it in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\windows\CurrentVersion\Run\
with 2 .exe files of the same name, one in my System32, the other in my local pc System32.
The same thing happened, I deleted em, and nothing happens.
So it's a worm, right?
Now how the F can I get rid of it? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
