Thank you guys you helped me really out !
It´s bad to download stuff from andr.net when you´re tired because of this I got that shit, norton and so on weren´t able to remove it but your tool rocked this malware !
This really worked, I can not believe it but it got that little pest off my PC. Thank You so much!!!!!!!
Wow worked like a charm. Thanks.
well I guess I get to be the first unsatisfied post. it didnt work for me. chances are I did something wrong tho. I am hesitant to turn off mcafee for fear that the virus will quickly rape my system. any suggestions will be appreciated. email “dr.jaul@yahoo.com”
Dr. Jaul, I guess you may have to do it the long way. Post your HJT logs on security forums such as BleepingComputer, ForumsTechGuy and so on… They have security experts that can analyze the problems on your computer and can give you solutions for free.
I would like to have your babies…which is not biologically possible but an indication of my gratitude for ridding my laptop of that bastard spyware.
All that was left behind were a few Cookies, summarily dispatched.
Was unsure about downlodaing from your site for fear of even more shite infecting it but none arrived. You have restored my faith in the ‘web’ community.
Thanks so much.
Ian
when you say Extract all the files to your Desktop, it will create a folder SmitfraudFix do you mean like all the files from the folder you downloaded SmitfraudFix to or just extract the SmitfraudFix file?
when i go into safe mode my keyboard is disabled and i cannot type anything
Wow THANX ALOT IT WORKED! Alot of relief of my back, good ridance with you :) we need more of these sites.
AMAZING! I HAVE MY COMPUTER BACK!!
I have run several scans of my antispyware, and neither that nor Nortan has done anything. This however, was great advice. Thanks again!
TRY THIS EASIER METHOD FIRST…my PC was infected by the Trojan virus and neither Spysweeper or Norton could remove it; so i restored my computer (windows xp) from the day before i was infected and the virus is gone now. i did not have to go through all those steps. i did back up the data from the two days that i had had the virus as those were lost in the restore but it worked and was really easy!
l spent hours trying to remove it with all
the named antivirus and spyware with no luck.
Impressed and relieved
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
George
I thought it worked greatbecause I wasn’t seeing the trojan messages pop up, but then when I ran my webroot as a final scan, it detected it again. What do I do??
WOW…This site has become my #1 source for information and assistance. Worked GREAT, just as described!
Megan,
Please make sure you followed the instructions carefully just like what others did.
dont know what that just did,but it did it superbly.THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU and F**K ALL MALWARE
Thank you sooooo much. This was a lifesaver. Tried to fix it for 5 days before I found this site. Thank God there are people out there like you guys! After I followed the instructions and the sypware was removed I had no Internet access though. Either the spyware or the solution had deleted all of the connections. After reestablishing them, the Norton firewall has to be disabled but everything works! Any suggestions?
GOD BLESS YOU! It worked!
it said process.exe file was missing and hwne i clicked on the cmd part of the folder, nothing happened
Thank You Very Much!!
This programme works like a charm!!!
I am gratefull, Thank you very very very Much!!
IT WORKS!!!!!!
As Always,
Anjana
hey webmaster i got a trojan downloader.zlob bt there isnt ne “.media codec” extension after it. it has affected a file ichost.exe . will ur method work for me too? dunno from where it came. plzz help as soon as u can. email me at ranveer_19@yahoo.com
I used this product and my windows XP is running much faster but i still get little bubbles with this spylock program download in the bottom right are you sure this download fixes Trojan.Zlob.N?
hi..i have been infected with…win32/trojan.downloader.Ani.Gen trojan…how can i rid of that damn virus…thanx in advance
Thanks a lot Webmaster! You’ve saved me hours of looking for all the individual reg entries and files.
Thanks a lot it really makes the difference, you know what youre taking about you rock man!! really helped to clean up the registry also runned xoftspy 4.24 to check all out and system is free of the threat.
Thank You! I don’t know what I would have done if I didn’t find you. Your instructions were simple and clear.
Dude ur a genius…ur my heroooo!
I only get to point number in this process. After reboot I need to sign in and the computer doesn’t accept my password… Anyway to get around this??? I can’t even get in to my computer!
I noticed, before I found this site and these recommendations, that no password seemed to work. Does this trojan hi-jack my passwords as well??
I just need to get in to the computer so I can finish the rest of the steps. Help please!
Henrik, I havent know of any issue that this Trojan can changed passwords on computer. If you are using winxp or 2000 you may download WinNT2k Boot to reset the password.
Yep..works a treat, Mcafee had a coronary when I was installing so best to do as suggested and disable the antivirus before hand.
Worked as described and whole process took under 5 minutes to rectify.
You are an angel! Amazing it works! You need to start a business for this - you will make millions!
Thanks dude :-)
it is very useful to us
Hi I have got two user accounts on my pc, both are administrator accounts, I opened a spam mail like a monkey and when Mcafee asked me if I wanted to block or allow the program like a monkey I pressed allow, I did all the 9 steps and the shield symbol near the clock (opened up popups whenever you click on it) disappeared. However when I open a browser page the pop ups still come up, please someone help!
Perfect!! Glad I found your fix. Worked great. Wasted many hours screwing around. Many, Many Thanks
I had a very pesky zlob trojan-tried everything on the internet-nothing-still there—until I followed your instructions-so far so good-finally someone out there that knows what ther’re doing-novel concept.
That is amazing, my PC is healthy again, thanks for the great post!!!
Not sure how to tell if you have a food allergy? Sometimes it’s pretty easy to figure out. Hives may appear or perhaps stomach problems occur. But other times it’s harder to tell.
I followed the instructions and thought I had removed the Zlob. Unfortunately, it’s back. I never got the prompt (#8): “It will check if your wininet.dll file is damaged, if so it will ask you to Replace Infected File? Press Y as Yes and hit Enter”.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there an updated version of this @##!trojan.
Thanks
Thanks so much for this amazing tool!! It worked perfectly after spending an afternoon trying just about everything else :) Much appreciated
dude, i did all of the instructions, but like some others, i never got the prompt (#9)
“This tool will also check if your wininet.dll is infected and will prompt:
Replace infected file? Press Y and then Enter to replace you wininet.dll with the clean version.”
can you post back please?
W00T!!!!!!!!
i did what Kristen said and it works like before!!!!!! YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!
fbghqr nxbp
THANKS!!! WORKS PERFECTLY!
My PC was hot by the Malware, Virus Remover 2008 two days ago. Faked virus alerts kept popping up everywhere. I managed to kill the virus by running SmitFraud Fix and SDFix in Win Safe Mode. No more faked alerts.
However, when I clicked My Computer, I see only the D, E and F and G drive icons. I cannot see the C drive icon at all. I ran SMitFraud Fix , AVG 2008, XSoft, etc again in Safe Mode. But nothing works.
I am on Win XP, with hard drives C, D, F and G.
I am now infected with Mediacodec Zolb Trojan and this has hijacked the computer in a way that and I can’t open the XP in safe mode or even run most of the programs. The antivirus programs such as smithfraudfix and Stopzilla can’t be executed and are seen as Virus I would appreciate any comments or suggestions.
Thanks.
Jack
Thank-you very very much …
After few days (In Safe mode or not) of McAfee Full Scan (Fully Equiped) , Spy Sweeper and Spyware Doc They have all detected the “trojan-downloader-zlob”, but none of them could remove it as you did. What’s funny, is that all threat you as a none secure download !!!
Any response?
