Hiya all: The AVG search is preaty crapy, I had several problems looking for some virus that AVG free found but where not to be found in the site virus database. Now I found more usefull to do a google search, some times u have to dig in but it allways pays back. I olso use the McAfee library, http://vil.nai.com its olso a good plase to look for. If what u r facing is actually malware take a look to ad aware http://www.lavasoft.de I been using it for a wile now and its really good stuff. Latly I been traying spy bot it seams really good too, check this http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_description/0,fid,22262,00.asp Cheers, rak *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 06/07/2004 at 11:19 H Carvey wrote:

Backdoor.SdBot.29.T,I went to the Grisoft web site and did a search for "backdoor" in the virus encyclopedia, and there is no listing for SdBot. A search for "sdbot" returns nothing. A search for IRC doesn't return anything that applies.and Proxy.6.AG kjhbb.exe and gfhhr.exe in system32 folder but it cannot clean them. Of course deleting the files is no cure, because they come up again anadagain. You're most likely not killing the malware process.Trend Micro housecall and Norton AV 2003 does not even show them. I could not find any mention of them in Symentec Web site.Try "Symantec" instead, or http://www.sarc.com. Search for "sdbot" rather than the name given by AVG...not all malware is named the same thing by all a/v vendors. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ethical Hacking at the InfoSec Institute.
