Hi I'm new to the forum. I am currently infected with the pokapoka.exe. I usually do searches on google and can find information through previously posted messages on forums like these to solve my malware problems, but since this is a fairly new virus I am having no luck. I run Ad-Aware SE frequently but have never used Hijack this or recieved help from experts. Any help someone could provide would be greatly appreciated. In addition to any help you can provide, I have a question. In the regeistry editor it says the file is located at C:\WINDOWS\\etb\pokapoka69.exe. I can't find it anywhere to delete (even if I could stop it from running). It may not be that important but for my own curiousity I wanted to know why I couldn't find it on my computer.
