How do you delete a bloodhound virus if Norton does not let you fix quarantine or delete?

Bloodhound isn't necessarily a virus. If Norton's "Bloodhound" technology finds a suspicious piece of code in a file it names it something like "Bloodhound.exploit.13" or similar. Remember Norton have a vested interest in frightening people. It can't remove it because it probably isn't a virus. Download free Antivirus software from Grisoft.com or www.free-av.com or similar and see if the virus still appears. You can delete the file yourself hold down shift and press delete in Windows explorer when the file is highlighted or leave it in quarantine.blood houndBloodhound is not the name of a virus, but a message displayed by Symantec's Norton Anti-Virus when it thinks it may have found a new virus. 9/10 times it is nothing.... Sometimes it is picking up a vulnerability that a windows update covers..


What do you do with a quarantined file?

when a file is quarantined it just disables it and stores it in a place where you can see it and decide what to do. my suggestion is to look up the file name and see if its a virus, if so, then permenatly delete it. the scaners dont usually get the wrong kinda files. still... check first.

Can a virus be quarantined or deleted?

An antivirus program can quarantine it, so that no program can use it and it lies dormant on the HDD. It also can delete it so it is gone and won't use up space or harm your system.


What do you do to get rid of a virus that could not be quarantined or deleted?

The reason why you cannot delete it or move it to quarantine is because the process is still running on your computer. Open task manager and go to the processes tab. The process belonging to the virus will be in there, end it. After that, you will find that you are able to delete the virus and move it to quarantine. If your antivirus fails to delete the virus because it's running, you have a terrible antivirus. Once you've ended the process, download autoruns by sysinternals, then open that. Go to the logon tab and look for the auto start entry for the virus, it's probably under HKLM. Delete it. After that, you can delete the virus. I suggest running a scan with malwarebytes anti malware afterwards just to clean up. Good luck!
