How long does it take VundoFix to scan?

[Rorschach112]

It varies for each PC, I wouldn't imagine it lasting longer than an hour for most PCs

[Tobydog777]

Hello All,

I am almost positive that I have the Virtumonde virus. I have read a lot of different forums and other websites about the matter. I have downloaded VundoFix and it has been running for around 2 hours and hasn't found anything. Well it actually just finished now and said there are no files??? I guess I will just tell you what is happening. I have a 'shield' icon on the toolbar that keeps telling me that I have a security risk. It pops up every minute or so. M background is a warning saying that I have win32/adaware.virtumonde and win32/privacyremover.m64. I am at a loss at this point. I have ran Norton and Spyware Doctor and they are no help. I keep getting pop ups for spyware and anti virus programs. What can I do? Thanks

Are other Winfixer variants fixed by this tool? Such as WinAntiVirusPro 2007, and XP Antivirus 2009? Correct me if I am wrong about those 2 being variants

[Rorschach112]

Alternate fix: (use only if the above fix didn't work)
1) Download VirtumundoBegone
2) Save VirtumundoBeGone.exe to your desktop.
3) Run VirtumundoBeGone.exe and follow the instructions. Do not worry if you see a BLUE SCREEN "Fatal Error" Message, this is normal and expected.
4) When it has finished, reboot.

Hey. thanks very much for the help. i had a virtumonde virus for days and tried lots of programs. i had tried the first way and it never detected the virus, but the second way then allowed me to turn my automatic updates for windows on.

thanks very much,

david.

[Rorschach112]

Glad it worked for you

Trojan Horse Generic11. BAGQ and are in windows/system32/winlogon.exe (956) and windows/system32/kvwvtz.dll
