There a lot of people reporting trojan infections the last few days.  I have been busy doing remote virus removal for people all over the United States and Canada.  Recently there seems to be a trend with people using MySpace and Internet Explorer and trojan infections.  I would like to let anyone reading this article that I can remove a trojan infection over the internet for $45.00 per machine.  If you are interested, please see Remote Virus Removal.  I use a combination of tools for fixing computers remotely and removing trojan horse infections.  I use online virus scans, adware removal tools, hijackthis, malwarebytes, eset NOD32 and countless others.  I can remote in to a system in anywhere in the world in minutes and usually have the problem solved in an hour, depending on internet speed and severity of the virus infection.  I can perform data backup to either your storage device or to a secure device at my location.  I accept all major credit cards thanks to Google Checkout and provide you with the best possible service.  You can rest assured that I take pride in my work and that I only run the best software on your machine.  I offer payment in 30 minute increments via secure payment processing.  All data transfer for our remote session is using the same encryption as payment processing.

I provide a 15 minute FREE Consultation to make sure this is the right choice for you.  I also offer  a TOLL FREE number 1-888-390-5676

The nice thing is, you don’t have to unplug your computer and take it somewhere, you can even watch what I am doing in real time and learn how to do it yourself.  Save some money this holiday by not having to purchase a new computer.

Ensure you’re protected ahead of Cyber Monday
PC Tools’ tips for safe online Christmas shopping

1. Use web browser protection

While shopping online you may come across what appear to be legitimate-looking websites created with the express intent of committing financial or identity fraud. Hackers can also infect legitimate or reputable websites, such that by merely going to a website, you could infect your family’s computer and expose your personal details and financial welfare to risk.

Reputable browser protection, such as PC Tools Browser Defender, warns you about potentially dangerous websites and identifies websites that are trying to infect or harm your computer - standard option with PC Tools Internet Security.

2. Install comprehensive security protection

You can also help protect yourself from malicious attacks by installing reputable security software such as Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus or PC Tools Internet Security which are recommended by leading independent publications. Make sure your security product has real-time and browser protection, which can block attacks as they happen and while you surf the web, as well as behavioural protection, which helps protect against new and unknown threats.

3. Ensure you have the latest updates

Always keep your product up to date. Ensure you are using the inbuilt Smart Update feature which automatically downloads the latest databases and software updates.

4. Do your homework

Check out the website’s refund and returns policies, privacy policy and legal notices. These documents should be readily available on online websites. You will want to know for example, what your rights are in relation to any goods you buy on line and how a company deals with your personal details.

5. Be click aware

Be wise about clicking on links in emails from online retailers. Cybercriminals wanting to steal your personal information can now create emails that look exactly the same as those that come from well-known online stores. So even emails that may appear to be from a legitimate company may be dangerous. Make sure you have a powerful spam filter that automatically detects suspicious emails as they arrive in your inbox.

6. Look for the signs

Using your browser, you can view the site’s security certificate and verify that it is issued to the web site you intended. A security certificate is designed to give you comfort that the information you send from your computer is kept secure from access by other parties. You should also check that the security certificate is registered to the website you are visiting. You can do this by double clicking on the security icon and verifying that the name in the certificate matches the name of the retailer.

7. Pay using a secure method

If you use a debit card when purchasing from an online shopping site, the purchase amount will be immediately withdrawn from your account and will be more difficult to get back if the transaction turns out to be fraudulent. If you use a credit card you can contest transactions before you pay your monthly statement. Frequent online shoppers should consider setting up a separate credit card with a low limit, so that if their details do get stolen, a thief will be limited in the amount of money they can charge to the card.

8. Don’t give out too many details

Online retailers should only require your basic contact details (for example, name, billing address and contact number) and card details in order to process a credit/debit card payment. If you are concerned that a retailer is requesting too much information, contact them by phone to find out why they need so much information, how they plan to use it and if they have a privacy policy to protect you.

9. Keep records of the transaction

Make sure you print and save records of any online transactions, including the product description, price and the receipt of payment. If the site turns out to be fraudulent, you’ll need this information to advise the relevant authorities in order to try to get your money back.

It is estimated that 90% of all computers are infected with some form of spyware that may track keystrokes, allowing criminals to learn passwords and bank account numbers—essentially giving them access to anything and everything on your computer.

None of us ever really believe identity theft will happen to us but that is precisely what happened to over 10 million people last year alone. To say that we are at risk is an understatement. There are elite groups of cyber criminals forming in the far corners of the globe targeting consumers and businesses online.

Without proper protection, it is not a question of “if” you will become a victim-but “when”. Spyware technologies are becoming more advanced and sophisticated each year and are the primary tools for identity thieves. And firewalls and anti-virus software alone aren’t enough to stop them.

By the time identity theft has been discovered, 85% of victims have already lost money. But there is a far darker side to identity theft than the pure monetary loss: Credit score damage. If an identity thief remains undetected for too long or gains access to your social security number, credit score damage becomes a very real possibility. It can take years to regain complete control of your identity and the costs to you can run into the thousands. Your credit is literally your financial lifeline—protect it and your identity with Anonymizer’s online privacy solutions.

Anonymizer

Found this little guy on a Compaq that came in to the shop today. There are 3 programs on the desktop error cleaner, privay protector, spyware & malware protection. Seems from what I have read it is an SDbot variant and you need to download SDfix

Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :

* Restart your computer
* After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
* Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
* Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press “Enter”.
* Choose your usual account.
* Open the extracted folder and double click “RunThis.bat” to start the script.
* Type “Y” to begin the script.
* It will remove the Trojan Services then make some repairs to the registry and prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
* Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
* Your system will take longer that normal to restart as the fixtool will be running and removing files.
* When the desktop loads the Fixtool will complete the removal and display “Finished”, then press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
* Finally open the SDFix folder on your desktop and copy and attach the contents of the results file “Report.txt”

Then run an online antivirus
