You could try to remove the virus but if you could find instructions for it, the anti-virus vendors would have incorporated a fix already too. Some of the sites will post details like the link below which describes the W32.Bobax.D virus (Also Known As: Bloodhound.Packed, Exploit-DcomRpc [McAfee], TrojanProxy.Win32.Bobax.b [Kas]). I'd recommend leaving the cleaning to the experts though in most cases. Virus writers continue to get more sophisticated and attacks are likely to reinstall the virus if parts are uninstalled rather than the whole virus. Order of removal may also be important. The simple virus infections are the only ones I'd attempt to remove and they are likely covered by all the anti-virus and anti-spyware tools.

go and do an online scan they will remove it for you, theres a few out there,
trend micro house call.
panda
are 2 of them
or you can use ctrl/alt/delte keys, gets task manager up, then lookin proceses ans see if you can see the name of it. then stop that process.
oh and if your using your own anit virus progs, and you still have the virus, you need to take off your system restore cos they stay in there aswell, and dont forget to put it bcak on agin after you have scanned.

go to www.trendmicro.com and use the free antivirus scan. if that doesent work try spybot. Manually removing a virus isnt very easy. you have to get every part of it which would take forever to manually find all of it.

You can't. You can try Trend Micro's Housecall Online, though, if you don't like installing software on your computer. They do a scan without installing anything but the latest version of Java. It DOES take a while, though.

Good Luck!

which ones?
and have you done it in SAFE mode with RESTORE turned off and RECYCLE bin turns off temporarily ?

get the following, all are free for a safe surfing experience,
install in SAFE mode with networking ( hit F-8 at boot time ), run them all in SAFE mode
with networking as you'll need it for the updates all the programs below will need.
Turn off RESTORE and the RECYLE BIN temporarily as virii can regenerate / reinfect even if you delete
them with both services on. After all the scanning and cleaning after a 2nd reboot and one last
scan do you turn both of them back on.

ANTI VIRAL

AVG (free) http://free.grisoft.com/


FIREWALL

ZoneAlarm http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp

WEB BROWSER - http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox

EMAIL use thunderbird. It has a good built in spam filter and learns when you teach it. http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird

SPYWARE

and if you have a wireless router follow these tips,


1. Use WPA encryption (WPA-PSK) it's less crackable then WEP.

2. Make a passphrase that is upper & lower case and has some numbers thrown in there as well, again harder to crack.
some like mAkE1t5eCurE0rel53 and as long as possible.

3. Use MAC access control so only you or authorized PC's can connect (even if you do have encryption turned on)

4. Turn off DHCP use static addresses.

5. Turn off SSID (and change it) unless your card really needs it (some do)

6. Change username/password of access unit front end

7. Ensure you have the usual firewall enabled on your PC.

8. Paranoia rules, turn WLAN off if your not using it :)


one last tip
control panel---administrator tools--services--messenger

right clik on it
stop the service
then disable it
save changes

you can do a system restore to return your operating system to its formal stage.
