Kathyros Virus Removal

There's a new virus in the wild named Kathyros Virus. As of this posting, i still can't find an automatic remover for this. But don't worry, there are several manual procedure you can do to get rid of this Kathyros virus.

1. First, you can use Flash_Disinfector <-- just click the link and download it there. Although this tool is primarily created for disinfecting flash drives, it can also clean your regular drives. Just double click the file you have downloaded and it will do the rest. If you have a flash/thumb drive that is also infected with Kathyros Virus, you should plug it first to your usb port before running flash disinfector. Flash disinfector specifically target these malwares/viruses: W32/Perlovga (copy.exe | host.exe) VBS_RESULOWS.A (Hacked by Godzilla, Hacked by Moozilla) Bha.dll.vbs w32automa worm (Autorun.vbs) Trojan.Win32.VB.atg | Win32/Dzan | Worm_vb.bnr (tel.xls.exe | mmc.exe) W32/RJump.worm (RavMonE) Worm.Win32.Delf.bf | W32.Fujacks (spoclsv.exe) W32.Fujacks.BH (Fucker.vbs) WORM_AGENT.PGV (soundmix.exe) W32/Hakaglan.worm (RVHost.exe) Trojan.Win32.VB.ayo [AVP] (Macromedia_Setup.exe) Trojan.VBS.DeltreeY.b#1 (Destrukto!!! | destrukto.vbs) So if you believe you have one of those viruses in your system or your flash disk, you can also use it there. If you seem to get rid of the Kathyros virus by using Flash Disinfector, then good for you. Second thing to do is to delete the Kathyros files. You should enable "Show hidden files and folders" in your explorer. To do this, open up My Computer then click on Tools>Folder Options>View> and then click on Show Hidden Files and Folders. Click Ok. Search for the files Kathyros.bat, Kathyros.exe, Kathyros.vbs in your C: drive and in c:\windows\system32 folder. Or you can use the search function of windows Xp to easily locate these files. If you found any file that has kathyros name on it, delete it.




Any suggestion, question or violent reaction? Feel free to leave a comment.

Taken from: atmaxplorer.com I’ve been receiving tons of questions on how to check if their PSP can have custom firmware installed. Here’s a complete and concise guide to get you going. Make sure to read through the guide fully since it will answer all your psp motherboard related questions. First of, you need to understand that there are three types of PSPs: 1) 1000 Series (Also known as PSP Phat/Fat) 2) 2000 Series (Also known as PSP Slim or Lite & Slim) 3) 3000 Series (Also known as PSP Brite) So why install Custom Firmware on a PSP? People install Custom Firmware so they can run Homebrew, programs developed by people that don’t have a contract with Sony. A PSP with Custom Firmware could also back up your games from the UMD to your computer; it also allows you to play those backups from your Memory Stick (MS). You could also do some serious customizations to your theme. Basically, you free your PSP from the hands of Sony. Why can’t I install Custom Firmware on my ...

Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged (code 19)- CD ROM Device Manager Error One of my client brought in a Dell Latitude laptop that has a problem with its CD ROM. According to the owner he can't access his CD. The model of his CD Rom is Samsung CD ROM SN-124. Upon inspection, I found out that the device (CD ROM drive) is missing from his My Computer (as you can see on the image below) At first, I thought that the problem lies with the connection of the CDROM because I had it disassembled a week before due to display problem. The CD Rom is snap in type, so I easily took it out and back in without hassle. Upon logging in to windows, the problem still persist. Next, I checked the Device Manager (right-click My Computer, choose Properties, then Hardware and click on Device Manager). As you can see on the picture below, there is a problem with the CD ROM because there is a yellow exclamation mark befor...
