tg1911 Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Lavasoft’s new add-on VX2 Cleaner detects the malware VX2 and offers you the ability to remove it from your computer. Some users have experienced a very difficult variant of VX2 which cannot be removed by Ad-Aware. For those users which have this variant, we have developed an add-on to help you remove this VX2 variant.This VX2 variant registers itself in a way, which gives it system privileges. It also prevents the user from viewing this information by removing the user’s rights to do so. Furthermore it constantly monitors the registry and prevents any attempts to remove its associated values. This makes it very difficult for the user to manually remove it.The VX2 Cleaner works with all editions of Ad-Aware.Here's a link. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

B, Pete, Cherokee Chief, etc........ Man! There sure was some knowledge floating around on the old board. Learned a lot. Hopefully, this one will be like that. Everyone, trying to help out where they can. But, with B running things, I don't see where that'll be a problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robroy Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Thats why I came here. I browsed the ttv boards for quite a while before I ever posted. Never saw B give anyone bad advice. Learned a lot from reading his, Pete's and several others who have mostly come here, answers. JD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
