Guest anguscanplay Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 cheers, AVG had dealt with it but using yours to double check.
jb-eye Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Any of you fellas clued up on virus. I keep getting an anti virus pop about 4 times a day per screen asking to clean /delete a Win32/Coniker.B file. System says its gone then about 4 hours later same message. Im pretty sure this started to happen yesterday when i had to change my router. Yes i left my protection of when first testing. ive now closed my firewall down but im thinking this feker is already in. Any idea how i get rid? Customers!

james.wilson Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 free wise id recommend give ms security essentials a go at it. But if its well in you might make it unbootable.... securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
Cubit Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Saw this about 2 years ago. It's related/linked to Microsoft and Servers. Bit of detail here. Some AV packages deal with it, some seem to baulk at it and flag up the warning. What AV package are you using? Another thing to watch for is the warning may be getting generated due to the 'problem' being historic and is not currectly active but residing in System restore files. We got it on a brand new server, not connected to the internet and installing a Microsoft disc of Server 2008.
MrHappy Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 look it up in the forums of your anti virus provider, somebody will have had it & removed before you. turning system restore off, starting & scanning from safe mode might do the trick ? Mr Veritas God

james.wilson Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Kaspersky is worse than some virus imo. PLus the amounts of times it gives false positives is annoying. I know the single user version is well liked by the press but the corporate version is shocking imo securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
MrHappy Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Kaspersky is worse than some virus imo. used at work for the last couple of yrs (small office security) w/o any issues. good enough for my needs & dirt cheap. I assume it no better than the home product but with password to stopo end user form switching off ? Mr Veritas God

It was not virus related but a conflict with Vista on Dell lappy. Regarding protection, ease of use and 'interference' i can't fault it.
