Question by loubean: MS Removal Instrument virus- how to remove?
I’ve acquired the MS Elimination Device virus/trojan point- I’ve tried using employing anti-spyware, but the virus stops it from opening. Tried it in secure mode, explained it got rid of all troubles, but when restarted, virus was nevertheless there.
I’ve tried to eliminate it manually, but the directions inform me to go to
Personal computer/ProgramData or a thing related, and when I search, even in protected mode it says no such file exists.
I’ve enabled viewing of hidden programs and files
Help Please!

Very best remedy:

    MS Removal Guide

    It is possible that the infection you are trying to remove will not allow you to
    download files on the infected computer. If you run into this problem, you will need to download the files
    requested in this guide on another computer and then transfer them to the infected computer. You can
    transfer the files via a CD/DVD, external drive, or USB flash drive.
    Option 1.
    Step 1.
    Reboot your computer into Safe Mode with Networking using the instructions for your version of
    Windows found in the following tutorial:
    How to start Windows in Safe Mode-http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial61.html
    Step 2.
    Open Internet Explorer
    Note: It MUST be Internet Explorer, not Firefox, Opera, Chrome or any other internet browser
    Click on Tools at the top and select Internet Options
    Note: If you do not see Tools, press the Alt key on your keyboard and it will show up
    Click on the Connections tab
    Click on the LAN settings button
    Under Automatic configuration make sure that the box next to Automatically detect settings is checked, if it is not, then click the box next to it to check it
    Click on the OK button to close the Local Area Network (LAN) Settings window
    Click on the OK button to close the Internet Options window
    Step 3.
    Now we must end the processes that belong to MS Removal Tool so that it does not interfere with the
    cleaning procedure. To do this, please download RKill to your desktop from the following link.
    ==Rkill – What it does and What it Doesn’t – A brief introduction to the program==
    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic308364.html
    #1. do not turn off computer until after running Malwarebytes’ when using rkill or the process will
    have started again and you will have to start over.
    #2.Vista and Windows 7 users, right click and click run as administrator.
    #3. Keep running Rkill until no malicious processes are detected
    Step 4.
    Now you should download Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware, or MBAM, from the following location and save
    it to your desktop–http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/malwarebytes-anti-malware
    # Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
    # At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to the following:

    * Update Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware
    * Launch Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware

    # Then click Finish.
    # If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
    # Once the program has loaded, select Perform FULL scan, then click Scan.
    # When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
    # Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
    # If it asks for a Restart DO SO, Very Important

    1.Restart your computer into safe mode WITH networking ( http://www.pchell.com/support/safemode.s… ) This shows how to restart into safe mode on all Operating systems.

    2. Turn off your system restore ( http://www.ehow.com/how_2379192_manually… ) (Same steps to turn it back on, Except turn it on, rather than off)

    3. Go to ( http://www.malwarebytes.org/ ) and download (While in safe mode w/ networking) the free version. When it is done installing, Please select to Update, But do NOT run. After it is done then run it.. Do a Full system scan and Quarantine anything it finds (once again, if your not sure, Google it)

    4. Restart your computer, and Turn system restore back on. (refer to step 2 for instruction). Perform another scan with Both your anti virus, and Malwarebytes. If anything is found, then Restart and do step 2-3 again.

    5. After everything is completely gone, Restart your computer one last time, and You should be good.

    I would also recommend removing Anti Virus and Downloading Avast Free Edition™ ( http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-down… ). Click Free download and Wait for the “No Thanks I want free protection” Button (usually 2-5 seconds).

    Another option is restarting on safe mode and just restore system to a previous day. I just did it and it took me no more than 5 minutes to have my computer back !!!!!. Then download Super Anti-Spyware or Hitman Pro (in safe mode) and do a scan using it. All these program are free and legitimate.

    Simple method to remove the infection

    *Turn off the computer and start the computer in safe mode(tap f8 the moment you turn on the computer)
    *Choose your account where you have the infection
    *For XP, Go to Start->Run and then copy this location and paste it
    C:Documents And SettingsAll UsersApplication Data
    *For Vista/Win7, Go to Start and then on the start search or search program and files, copy and paste this location and then hit enter
    C:programdata
    *In this folder you will find a weird foler which has alternate lower case and upper case letters and which will also have five numbers
    *If you open this folder, You will find two files with the same name.. Delete this two files and restart the computer..

    Bet this works.. Lemme kno wat happened :)

    I have used Malwarebytes several times, and it does not remove this virus. It can’t even detect it with a full scan.
