Have any of you heard about the Blaster Worm virus? Apparently it hit big in 03, but my g/f just got it, and shes running the AVG Free, on windows 7...
She cant run any executables, so any download patches we have tried to install won't work. Just saw this go through recently and thought i'd ask? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have remote hard drives for her to back up files to, but I don't know how to control any "infected" files. Any suggestions of backing up her stuff, and just wiping the hard drive clean? Thanks a ton!
The chance of you being infected by the blaster worm is very low. It's more common you have an adware spyware program blocking exe files and it's giving a fake alert saying your infected by the blaster worm. Download SuperAntiSpyware portable it ends in a .com ending so it should be able to run http://www.superantispyware.com/portablescanner.html?tag=SAS_HOMEPAGE After you‘re done scanning run Malwarebytes http://www.malwarebytes.org/
You will probably need to download these to a flash drive on a working computer and run them in safe mode also remember to update your definitions.
If you are actually infected by the blaster worm boot into safe mode and run stinger http://www.mcafee.com/us/downloads/free-tools/how-to-use-stinger.aspx real viruses can also infect your data even if it's backed up.
Today I cleaned up a computer with AVG Business 2011 it completely disabled AVG. And on multiple occasions I've cleaned up computers with Microsoft Security Essentials it sits there running in the background with no clue your computer is infected. It’s sad how useless some of these programs are.
