A couple of days ago, I got the
W32/Stanit http://www.avira.com/en/threats/section/fulldetails/id_vir/2661/w32_stanit.html Virus. Basically, It runs a tiny .BAT file that connects you to a specific IP and downloads some tiny files which disables network connections, windows fire wall, and rebooting Windows in normal mode. After backing up most of my Program files and my music onto my external harddrive in safe mode, I performed a system restore.
My computer is then working fine, I decided to try transferring a couple of my commonly used programs onto the freshly restored computer. Little did I know, the W32/Stantit Virus had already spread to EVERY .exe file on the external HDD and now onto the computer.
I restored it again, this time I downloaded Avira Antivir to scan all of the files on the External drive. The scan is showing a total of 1930 W32/Stanit infected files, all of which are .exe (save a few .rar files, which I assume means that the .exe in the .rar is infected).
Now, the options I am given by Avira are, A. Restore them B. Delete them or C. Leave them as quarantined. Of course, I would like to, if at all possible, repair the .exe files, is there a program out there that I haven't been able to find that can do this?
Also, would it be safe right now to transfer my music files? They all appear to be safe.
Thanks.
