Hello I am new here and would like some help.. I have a serious problem, or at least I think that it is serious.

One the 26th of June in the afternoon we found that our MS Databases did not exist on our server.. Including the directory were they were stored.

I wen to server and found that it there were many errors that were being shown in error messages.. (I do not remeber what they were)

I had to reboot servers, Server Windows 2K..

I have tried serveral data recovery programs and there is no trace of the missing data bases.. I can only find one db that was deleted about 6 months ago.. Not one Trace. I can find the directory.

I have been investigating and have found the following. In the recycle bin files a file named dc1.exe.

In c root files named hist (which is an application) jkDe witch is a batch file my cjjk which is another batch file..

Bottom line is that I realize that these are spy ware or malicous ware programs.. I need to know 3 things Urgently

1. How do I recovery our data bases... (And no there is no current back up)

2. How do I get rid of these malware programs.

3 How do I prevent this from happening agian..

Thanks in advance for your help..

Bob
