i just had a lockx.exe virus and i got rid of it today. later on tonite, my anti-virus (symantec) prompted a message abut a threat.

the apparent thing is located in: C:\System Volume Information\_restore{68DCCD3E-2073-4915-A5DC-A445A55876AD}\RP153

and it the file is: C:\System Volume Information\_restore{68DCCD3E-2073-4915-A5DC-A445A55876AD}\RP153\A0024303.exe

please let me know what to do and if it actually is a virus...

Hi gjarema and welcome to the Geeks to Go Forums.

My name is Trevuren and I will be helping you with your log.

Download and run the following HijackThis autoinstall program from Here . Please choose the default location of C:\Program Files\ as the destination. HJT needs to be in its own folder so that the program itself isn't deleted by accident. Having the backups could be VITAL to restoring your system if something went wrong in the FIX process!

• Run HijackThis
  
• Click SCAN and SAVE LOG. (a notepad window will open with the log in it when you click Save Log) (Ctrl-A to'select all', Ctrl-C to 'copy')
  
• POST the log into this thread using 'Add Reply' (Ctrl-V to 'paste')

DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES OR CLICK "FIX CHECKED" UNTIL WE CHECK THE LOG, AS MOST OF THE FILES ARE LEGIT AND VITAL TO THE FUNCTION OF YOUR COMPUTER
