Win32 Virtumonde Removal Guide
Win32 Virtumonde will be one of the worst spyware infections you will ever deal with. The first time I faced off with this bad boy it took close to 4 hours for me to remove. Now I’m not some semi hobbyist who repairs computers from time to time. I have been doing computer repair for over 12 years.
The win32 Virtumonde strain is the same or at least very similar to the rest of the Virtumonde or vundo stains. If you find you’re self infected with this trojan then I really do feel your pain. Total time to remove is around 2 hours if you are an expert. This is because if you are infected with this then you have several other spyware programs installed as well and you need to address all of them. That is why free tools like Vundofix don’t really work. I’m not saying don’t try it out because it does help to remove Virtumonde but in no way should you expect this free tool to work or fully solve your issue.
There are two things you need to consider first before attempting to remove this. The first is how you go infected. I have just one world “ZLOB”. The zlob trojan is a fake video codec. Already this should ring a bell in your head. That video clip you wanted to watch last week was most likely the reason for your infection. Fake codec’s are the number one reason for getting infected with Zlob. Once you have the Zlob spyware installed it will go out and download several programs including Win32 Virtumonde.
The second item you need to consider is you did not have enough protection to begin with. If you had the right protection you would not of gotten infected and not be in this mess. To solve your protection issue and to fully remove W32 Virtumonde then you should BUY SOFTWARE TO STOP IT. I’m tired of hearing people complain about being infected when they already know they need protection and just did not get it.
I do know many of you thought Anti-virus software alone was all you need or you were told whatever program you are using works. Well whatever you are using does not and that has already been proven. It’s not your fault. You really on other experts and to be honest you have to. With that said you have two real options to fully remove this threat.
- Go out and buy Spyware Doctor. It’s the best on the market and what we use to remove this threat. If you do not have anti-virus protection then upgrade to this option. Visit their site at http://www.pctoools.com for more info.
- The second option is for those who do not want to deal with it anymore and just want there computer back. If you are not tech savvy or just don’t have the time then call a pro to fix your computer. The people over at http://www.onlinecomputerrepair.org only charge 89 bucks. Tell them Jacob sent you over to them. They know who I am as I tell people all the time about these guys.
Without actually purchasing software you will not be able to fully remove this win32 Trojan. |
