Hello,

I have been infected with this stupid virus "Win32/Virut.NCZ virus" and now when i run the cleaning process through NOD, it is removing my all *.exe files. Looks like my all exe has been infected. Is there any way so that i could save my backup?

Please share your views.

Thank you

Yeah, its gonna effect exe file...you can't really quarantine this virus while running O/s ..However you can do few step

Reboot system in Safe mode & run the Anti Virus in Safe mode
After done..
Roll back your data - I mean...Restore your system point ..if your machine was infected like today...make you restore point @ couple of days earlier.

After System Restore...
Right click on My computer-Properties-System Restore...Check "Turn off System Restore on All drive"

This is very imp part and you should do it..as virus hide over restore folder...so you have to clean up restore point.

After done..Run the virus scan again

If your machine got infected having an Anti virus installed that's prove your Virus database is not updated or it simply Sucks..
Update your virus database before running a scan or get a better anti virus like Kaspersky or Avast (Avast runs in safe mode when virus overwrite exe file)..try it
 
Nah i have Ghost of my C drive about 2 months back. Just let me know if i restore it, will that virus remains there or not? I mean the files on the other drives will still remains infected or not?
 
i think it might have infected other drives.... just check if there is an "autorun.inf" file in each drive.... The file may be hidden.... if there is one then restoring windows from ghost isnt of no use...


My cousins computer once got that virus....
Installed "Avast" free version....
Scanned System in Dos mode (Option in Avast)...
Deleted all the virus....
Reinstalled the windows.... (In ur case Restore from backup..)

As for infected files.... They are of no use....
Delete it and download latest version.....
 
hummm that's right. I am installing now Kaspersky 2011 and will see how it works. I'll firstly scan my all dirves then i'll restore the ghost.
 
Kaspersky is good anti virus..No doubt ! but I am afraid trojans won't allow to install it..if it get Install...update the database and run a full scan.
Avast is good to delete virus from the infected machine as it run in safe/dos mode to clean the deadly virus.

Restoring system doesn't delete virus..it remain idle on the disk..however you can restore and run a virus scan.
Specially check n scan the folder System Volume Info on each drive
 
@ Off topic
really sad to know about yourself (about your sigi :D)

Well that just come from a pen drive. I was not home. My little bro put the usb in my cpu and that's how i got infected

Yep..Avast would be great for this trojans troubleshoot...Run in safe mode and install the Avast...reboot and it will Scan in Bios..when it ask for permission...hit delete...
Make sure..you have O/S CD ..as you have to reinstall your operating system to work flawless..
 
I think you didn't read carefully what i said. I said "Avast Antivirus would be good or Avast Internet Security would be good for this purpose?"
 
You are fucked bro. Once you have Virut the only thing to do is format and do a fresh install of windows. I would highly recommend you don't back up anythingas it will carry the virus to your pen dive and later your freshly installed windows.

Internet Security comes with privilege to monitor Online activity like port,url,e-mail etc..it come with Anti virus pack but also contain IS.
You can use any of them...Avast Internet security doesn't come for Free..
Anyways, Avast Antivirus would be good.

how is that even possible ?

Most probably, the data in pen drive was infected from infected machine...this trojans auto write exe & folder file...so soon you attach your pen drive to the infected machine..it get written.
 
i know the correct software u need at this time ,download combofix software its not a software but will clean any virus ...search google download it understand how to use it and i am gurantee u it will clean all your virus and errors ..
but use this tool carefully ,swtich off your antivirus firewall completely before using it ...
 
Listen bro, dont go to the extreme yet. Start with baby steps.
Back up ure info, then let antivirus delete repair however it has to do it, let it delete all .exe files. After that run windows cd and run repair, this will restore all system files deleted by ure antivirus. After that check if the problem is still there, if yes then the antivirus didnt do shit so u will need to run full system format, if no restore backed up files, after restoring backed up files if the problem is back, if yes u know it came from the backed up files so u run full system format, if no the problem is gone and u are good!
 
you are owned and be happy that your computer is working at all, format drives and install new os, i tried too with it, and i failed, in this case time= your enemy.
