NEW SPREADING "Antivirus 2009" Trojan !

Thousands of people got a virus by downloading what seems to be a legitimate anti-virus software thanks to the virus called Antivirus 2009.

* When a User Installs The SoftWare (Trojan) ..disables Your default anti-virus notifications, firewall alerts and, all system updates.

Trojan Horse VS System Restore !

SYSTEM RESTORE: has been a target of most hackers these days , If a trojan infects your system .. it automatically enable SYSTEM RESTORE , which means the trojan will be restored EVEN IF you install a new windows xp system !

SOLUTION :

* Goto Start --> Programs --> Accessories --> System Tools --> System Restore
And DISABLE System Restore for all drives .

Goto Tools --> Folder Options --> View --> Show Hidden Files / UNCHECK hide protected operating system files --> open any drive (C:\ for example) -->System Volume Information

And DELETE all the data inside this folder .

Repeat this for all your DRIVES .
NOW INSTALL YOUR NEW SYSTEM !!
