Removing the worm: Win32/koobface.w from my desktop PC, running Windows XP, SP3.
Removing the worm: Win32/koobface.w from my desktop PC, running Windows XP, SP3 is not working. I've tried, McAfee, Lavasoft-AdWare, Microsoft Malware Removal Tool, said it could not fix the problem, AOL, Google Brousers, too; since the worst is happening on IE. Can you send me via my email an executable file to ride this problem? Email removed for privacy, c# (770) 912-6397. I spend all day yesterday attempting to fix it in so many ways, just is not happening and my computer is all but totally under control of the malware, or maybe is Totally under control of my life, now. HELP!!! Thank you, John 1 person needs an answerI do too

You would be very foolish to accept and run an executable binary from some stranger. Koobface can be very difficult to remove. I suggest you get guided help at one of the specialty forums listed below. Choose one, register, and read its FAQ before you post. http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=4075 - Posting FAQ http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30 http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/forum22.html http://www.dslreports.com/forum/cleanup http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/Malware_Removal_HiJackThis_Logs_Go_Here-f37.html http://www.malwarebytes.org/forums/index.php?showforum=7 The alternative is to back up your data to an external hard drive and do a clean install/factory restore of Windows. http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html - Clean Install How-To http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Reinstalling_Windows - What you will need on-hand MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
