Win32/Conficker worm


Recommended Posts

Hi and welcome to the forum! :)

Please read and follow ALL the instructions below. Thanks!

Scan and post logs - read note at bottom in green

If you're having Malware related issues with your computer that you're unable to resolve.

1. Please read and follow the instructions provided here: I'm infected - What do I do now?

2. If needed please post your logs in a NEW topic here:Malware Removal - HijackThis Logs

3. When posting logs please do not use any Quote, Code, or other tags. Please copy/paste directly into your post and do not attach files unless requested.

* Please do not post any logs in the General forum. We do not work on any logs posted in the General forum.

* Please do not install any software or use any removal/scanning tool except for those you're requested to run by the Helper that will assist you.

* Using these other tools often makes the cleanup task more difficult and time consuming.

* If you have already submitted for assistance at one of the other support sites on the Internet then you should not post a new log here, you should stay working with the Helper from that site until the issue is resolved.

* Do not assume you're clean because you don't see something in the logs. Please wait until the person assisting you provides feedback.

* There are often many others that require assistance as well, so please be patient. If no one has responded within 48 hours then please go ahead and post a request for review

* NOTE: If for some reason you're unable to run some or any of the tools in the first link, then skip that step and move on to the next one. If you can't even run HijackThis, then just proceed and post a NEW topic as shown in the second link describing your issues and someone will assist you as soon as they can

Many thanks :) . I was asking about the removal function of Conficker Worm as in terms of Additional section under "Malware Removal Guides and Self Help Guides", hence asked in a general section of the forum :).

That said, I will in future post a log of the results found under an appropriate section of the forum to get faster help :).

Many thanks

Kind Regards

Jehanzeb

This is a very old worm and has been dealt with now for a long time.

1. Make sure your system has ALL the latest Microsoft critical updates.

2. Make sure you're running a continuous protection Anti-Virus product and that you get updates daily.

If items 1 and 2 are taken care of it's pretty much impossible to have this worm now days.
