I’ve just got generic 14 and unfortunately is rough. AVG and Windows Defender recognize the threat but are unable to remove one. I will be extremely grateful for any clues how to get rid of this nasty trojan. I am running vista 32x. Please help.
Thank you,
Kamil
Seems a new one, have you tried MalwareBytes AntiMalware. Download, update and scan your computer in SafeMode…
Yeah, doesn’t work. In fact I cannot even run this program after installation. Extraordinary. Let me know if you find something. Thanks…
Oh yeah man what you have to do is go to C:/Program Files/Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware and change the names of the icons that have the malware icon. example one will say mbam.exe you can change it to anything because the trojan horse generic 14 dyj stops it from opening some extension files and dont forget to change the name of the other icon. i still have this damn virus and i cant get rid of it ive tried malware and nothing came up, AVG sees it but cant do anything about it so if you find a solution i would be more than happy. thanks in advance and i hope things go well.
How do you get rid of this thing? I just got it today and AVG can’t remove it
You can change it to anything, but make a copy of the folder as is and change the copied folder name and the mbam.exe in the copied folder to something else. Once you have done that, you should be able to run the program using the exe in the folder you just renamed.
Thanks, I was just able to run the program. Now wish me luck.
If that doesn’t work, I just tried combofix for the same problem and it seems to have worked.
For AVG users: AVG has updated the software several times this past week, designed to stop trojans similar to this file, so keep checking the website and updating your AVG.
Twice I have run Malwarebytes (once with the quick scan & once with the full scan) and both times it has frozen on me.
Use AVG Anti Rootkit to remove this torjan. You can get this from “http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,65198-order,4-c,firewalls/description.html” Link.
Hallelujah! It is over!!! Combofix is able to destroy the bastard! Good luck everybody! P.S. Don’t forget to change the name of the file and go ahead with the instructions ;)
Hallelujah is right! I just used ComboFix myself, and now i’m finally clean.
it really dus work but iv tryed runing it on my dads computer wich is an xp (aposed 2 my vista) and it dusent seem 2 work dus any 1 know y?
No need to copy to another folder, just rename the folder while installing. :D
So combofix gets rid of trojans for sure right?
i just got Trojan Horse Generic 14.PEB
Will MalwareBytes work on it, as well?
Could someone please post a step-by-step procedure?
I got confused by the posts about MalwareBytes Antimalware and ComboFix. Does ComboFix by itself remove the Trojan or does it just enable one to run MalwareBytes successfully and it is MalwareBytes that removes the trojan?
Thanks much!
ok so i followed the steps for combofix and it wudnt install it just flashed a black box an didnt do anythink any one got any ideas ????
