rootkit.tdss

[slarabee]

One of my customers got this nasty little rootkit and I found that the only way to clean it from the system is to:

Run Malwarebytes and download updates.

Run a full scan and remove rootkit.tdss and any other nefarious settings and entries found.

Then boot from the Windows XP set up disc and run set up.

Run the recovery console and run fixmbr and fixboot.

Details on these commands can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314058

I hope this helps/
