    newest facebook worm, i just found out... pls help
    « on: November 23, 2009, 10:15:16 AM »
    i have modified this post but i still have basically the same problem. my desktop is now quite ok (though i suspect it is still infected by this new facebook worm attached on that sexy lady picture) after i followed the steps advised by your HJT tool. i am using a wifi router and my other desktop (actually my cousinīs) still cannot access yahoo. also, my netbook (an asus EEEPC) experiences connection problems aside from the fact it also cannot access yahoo. whenever i open this notebook (which runs on a linux platform while my desktop is windows), i cannot connect to the internet unless i unplug/re-plug my wifi router. i cannot find a HJT which runs on linux because whenever i search for an anti-virus on google (remember, i cant open yahoo), it takes forever to load-up the page i want to download from. i am only using an anti-virus software which came with this netbook. i truly hope that someone will look into my problem coz itīs already driving me crazy. thank you and more power to this site.

      im really desperate here. my yahoo messenger wonīt log-in (but skype go online), yahoo wonīt perform searches (internet connection failed) even though i am online, sometimes my internet connection fails (i have to disconnect-reconnect my router), my firewall is on but HJT says it doesnīt detect any firewall, avg free wonīt update so i switched to avast. both of my desktop experience the same problem. MBAM and SuperAntivirus doesnīt detect any virus.what should i do? iīve misplaced my original OS disc so re-installing will be a major no-no... hope you can help me... thanks!

          Sorry. I somehow missed that. Forgive me. I did'nt mean to sound so negative, but I am just frustrated by this problem. Thanks again.

            reinstall yahoo messenger bro.

            avg not updating? look at your update manager if it was disable.
            check automatic update

            you dont need to reformat your disk just for yahoo.

              i saw just a couple of hours ago about this new facebook virus. i think my pc is infected with it. it's about this picture of a sexy lady and i think someone from our house clicked on it (my nephews are yougn and may not know what they are clicking at). anyway, it seems like a worm and it doesn't bother me much anymore. still, i like to be sure about it. thanks for the response and more power!
