i recently downloaded some freeware (*.exe) and what do yu know, this lovely virus.

I haven’t installed it or signed up, but i have the common symptom of "every folder i open, there’s the pop up, which opens the internet site"

I’ve tried smitfraud, antivir, norton, malwarebytes’, and a few other IE AntiVirus aimed removers.

But it’s still here!

Most of these programs are searching for the exe file, which i don’t have as i have personally checked in the regedit.

registry’s, host have been cleaned, etc..

Does anyone have experience with removing this properly?

oh wow you’ve tried many security tools. i suggest you delete this pesky infection manually. this way it won’t cost you anything and IE Antivirus will be gone for sure. here’s removal tutorial: http://www.2-spyware.com/remove-ieantivirus.html

Run a GOOD anti virus program. ESET NOD32 is the best out there.

http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/5/20/1096740/ESET%20NOD32.rar

ESET NOD32 link ^.

ESET NOD32 Business Edition. Firewall and antivirus/spyware. Offers real-time protection against threats. If you already have a firewall you can disable ESET’s, but I wouldn’t recommend it, you can use two firewalls in conjunction (but not two anti-viruses with real time protection, so be careful, it can lead to reduced performance).

Extract the .rar archive (with something like WinRAR or 7zip, you can google for them), double click the setup file (NB, a .msi file is just a different type of installer package, do not worry lawl). When it asks you, enable threatsense early warning system, and click the check box saying set update parameters later (this is for updates to your anti-virus definitions). Also, I like having my firewall on Interactive mode, for greater control. Then you just have to allow/deny the programs you choose internet access – i.e. allow Firefox/IE and any online games you may play, deny anything dodgy looking.

It’ll install nicely, when it’s open click the updates tab and press update Virus Signature Database (or words to that effect). It’ll come up with a box asking for your username and password. Now double click the other file that was in the .rar archive, the "ESET Logins Viewer". Allow it internet access, and it’ll come up with a list of usernames and passwords for ESET. Just take the top one and copy and paste them, hit okay and let it update.

The first update may take a while. Each username/password configuration will run out every week or so, so you’ll have to update the username and password you use every so often, when it comes up with a box saying "Incorrect username/password".

Any further questions, just ask or email me – clampstand@gmail.com

Oh, and if anything asks, you should allow "egui.exe" access to the internet – that is ESET. "ekrn.exe" is also an ESET-related process.

If you are unsure about allowing anything access to the internet, google for it. If you get little/no results it’s best not to, and if you do get results then look at a few to see whether to allow/deny accordingly.

Also, go http://www.webroot.com/En_US/consumer-downloads.html, and click the "get free scan" scan box for the top piece of software (Webroot Spy Sweeper).

If your computer is running slow, you may like to consider running http://sales.webroot.com/downloads/registered/links/wwsetup6_5.exe.
This is Webroot Windows Washer. Crap Cleaner can also be downloaded, but works much the same as this, I prefer this though.

Then download this: http://www.auslogics.com/en/software/boost-speed/download

AuSlogics boost speed, a disk defragger, registry cleaner and some other stuff in one utility. Should improve computer performance.

Don’t run everything at the same time, and Antivirus/spyware scans will take a while. Run ESET first, then Spy Sweeper, then Windows Washer and finally the Boost Speed utility.

Congratulations, your computer is now ready to perform well, and kill malware.

Hi

These programs are excellent at removing Trojans and viruses etc etc
but they take time to check your computer. You can just pick one to use and hope that one finds it. But the more different ones you use the better chance you have. It’s a slow process doing a full scan but it will be worth it to have your computer back to normal
Personally I would run kaspersky first but that is up to you.
If you copy and paste these instructions onto a word document it will be
Easy to remember.

go to this web site http://www.f-secure.com/security_center
and run this free on line scanner if it finds any it will remove them for you
then
go to this web site http://housecall.trendmicro.com/uk/
and run the free house call scanner
it will then remove them for you
then
go to this web site http://onecare.live.com/site/en-gb/center/tuneup.htm
and do a free protection scan and tune up scan and clean up scan from micro soft

then go to http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
and run this free on line scanner
kaspersky also do free malware removal tools

IE Antivirus is a rogue anti-spyware program that pretends to be a legitimate spyware removal tool. IE Antivirus is able to display erroneous scan results listing several infections that it supposedly found on your system. The scan results that IE Antivirus lists are totally fake and cannot be trusted. IE Antivirus in the infection itself. I suggest you get rid of IE Antivirus in no time. Try a free removal application, such as SmitFraudFix.
