Ok let's see if it is still present.

Copy everything inside the quote box below (starting with dir) and paste it into notepad. Go up to "File > Save As" and click the drop-down box to change the "Save As Type" to "All Files". Save it as findfile.bat on your Desktop.

dir C:\WINDOWS\dxdgns.dll /a h > files.txt
notepad files.txt


Locate findfile.bat on your Desktop and double-click on it. It will open Notepad with some text in it. Please post the contents of that Notepad here.

Please go to Start>Run type in Notepad.
Copy what is in the code box below into the open Notepad window.
Change the "Save As Type" to "All Files". Save it as delete.bat on your Desktop.
@Echo off
attrib -s -r -h "C:\WINDOWS\dxdgns.dll"
del /q "C:\WINDOWS\dxdgns.dll"
quit
Don't do anything with this yet.
=====================
*Reboot your computer into SafeMode.
You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears.
Use your up arrow key to highlight SafeMode then hit enter.

Then please double click on delete.bat a window will open and close quickly.This is normal.


After that please reboot into normal windows and run the findfile.bat again and post the reults her in your next reply.

When you delete files they go to a place called system volume information.
If you were to do a system restore then you could re infect your self.
They are basically points that your computer uses to restore to.

You are welcome :)
