Virtumonde.exe

Can't seem to get rid of Virtumonde. Spyware doctor supposedly can get rid of it nowadays, but i'm unable to update it. I don't know whether this is a result of the virus or something else

ahh cool ill do a boot scan asap
just gonna print out the 8 steps etc and DL the apps and give that ago

i assume the pop up thing is todo with the files that direct you to places on the net ... sry its really vage but ... theres a file in your windows folder that tells your computer where to go when sites are entered .. eg when you enter www.google.com you can redirect it to go to and ip addy

a mate had a virus that changed all his usual addresses to go to some anti virus site lol

i managed to clear it for him bt i cant for the life of me remember where the file are that you need to change lol
ill have to give him a ring at some stage coz (in his wisdom) he wrote it all down

i followed the 8 steps

ran crap cleaner and malwarebytes

CC cleared 398mb from my system of temp files etc which is nice and Malware found around 17 issues with my system .. cleaned all but 3 which had to be cleaned on reboot
