How do you remove vbs freelink virus?

Answer 1

you could delete your system then buy a new computer buy a coding boot camp class for C/C++ and how to code and make OS then buy a 200$ remote HDMI then Plug a HDMIerfinder then boot your os on the other computer.

Answer 2

I had this problem and fixed it. Go to start/Run/ and type in 'regedit'. Go to HKey Local Machine Software / Microsoft / Current Version / Run / Delete the key Rundll. Rundll = Rundll VBS Also look in Classes in Current Version for any thing begining with VBS YOU MAY HAVE TO DO THIS TWICE TO GET RID OF IT

Another Way:

VBS/Freelink is an e-mail worm written with the VBScript language. Programs written with VBScript operate only under Windows 98 and Windows 2000 (unless Windows Scripting Host has been installed separately)

The VBS.Freelink virus distributes itself as an e-mail attachment. The e-mail attachment must be opened for the virus to propagate.

Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\services and rename MSXMIDI.EXE and WMPLAYER.EXE to any extention of your choice....I use oxo.....re boot.....if you check the file sizes of these files they are both 28k. Delete them. You should then remove any reference to either file in the windows registry or use a program such as Reg Scrub XP to do it for you...You should now no longer have any further problems with FREELINK

To Get Rid of It:

SUCCESS!!!!! (FOR ME ANYWAY)

I've been battling with this virus on XP for two days on both mine and my sons computer. Because the virus appears to be getting on in years (1999) there doesnt appear to be much info and I've tried all the online virus scanning services and found them to be wanting. What really got me down is my own updated version of PCcillin did even catch it in the first place! I digress

First get an online complete system virus scan from Panda.This will fix possibly all infected files, but it wont fix the bridge.dll problem mentioned above. It will rename it and then when you reboot your system will annoy you by saying it cant find the specified .dll AND that (imy case) Trend PCcillin still tells me I have the VBS_FREELINK virus. Great.

Then I remembered my Tweak Regcleaner gets rid of useless .dll'sRan the program. It found the annoying .dll and I just told it to delete the lot.ReebootBINGONot freelink in sight.For the regcleaner goto www.tweaknow.com and download the FREE regcleaner. That's all you need and its a cracking clean up utility anyway. Trust it and delete anything it finds including the "maybe unsafe to remove stuff"Good Luck everyone.

More Information:

Just a quick note to the above. It appears I was incorrect tosay there was little info on this Trojan.

There is lots of help, but when running a search just type VBS Feelink in to your search engine and omit the "_" (under line bit)

You should end up with a lot more helpful web pages.

Try checking the Windows Add/Remove Programs list. You might find something that you can't specifically remember installing (perhaps a name like Bridge). Remove any software that doesn't belong there and restart.

This might be an alternative from all the other fixes that require you to search the registry...
