The easiest way to get rid of it is to switch off system restore, then switch it back on again. This is done through 'System' in the 'Control Panel'. This deletes all of your restore points, so you'll have to do a manual 'restore point' afterwards. There are some antivirus programs that can get rid of viruses/trojans in restore point files, AVAST is one of them. You'll have to make sure that whatever antivirus program you're running is up-to-date though.

Here are opinions and answers from contributors: * One approach is to browse your competitors. See what brands they sell and then search for contact information for the manufacturers or distributors. * You can also try the Yellow Pages, the Internet or contact your local Chamber of Commerce.

If you download The Cleaner 4.1 Professional and use the trial version for now, it will sniff out any possible trojans on your computer and delete the ones it quarantines. I've tried it and it was very effective. You can download it here: http://www.moosoft.com/products/cleaner/download/

the Ruledor.D Virus came when i arrived on this web site: ***://***.simplemp3s.com/ the virus immediately installed many spywares and Horoscope (!) files, developing a lot of false MS warning messages (telling my PC was not protected enough, & bla & bla...). The first of all, don't click on this pop ups windows... Juste do a ctr+alt delete and close all those apps.

Then, i ran Ad-Aware 6.0 and cleaned all new unwanted files. Then, i ran AVG which located the virus in C:/WINDOWS/bundles/CSV5P070.EXE that has been healed by the anti-virii. that's all folks!

You can remove many viruses on your computer using a program called The Cleaner Professional 4.1. You can find it here: http://www.moosoft.com/products/cleaner/download/

Make sure you use the "Evaluation" instead of registering right away or even buying it. Make sure it's the program you want and see if it will quarantine the virus or viruses. After they are quarantined you need to go into the actual quarantine section on the main Cleaner menu and delete everything it placed in there.

I ran AVG and and it found the two trojans you are having trouble with. It would get rid of them, move one to virus vault and I would delete out of virus vault. Then, then next day, AVG found them again. So, I dug deeper. I looked to see where they were being saved. Then, I went to the file where they were stored. I also ran Hi jack This before deleting anything to verify things. To make along story short, I found it in a temp folder called -Temp. It was below the regular folder Temp. If you look in the -Temp folder. You should see an Optimize.exe and an Instal~1.exe These are the ones that are giving problems. If you look in the Hi Jack This log, you should see some lines that reference this. Those need to be removed, because this is where the reinfection comes from. NOTE: These are located in the registry files, SO BECAREFUL as to what you delete. Make a copy of your registy file firt and research the lines in question. After I did all this I have not had any trouble since. My computer is alot faster now.

This worked for my situation, but may or may not for you.

Thanks and good luck!

Also, look for a WebRebates0.exe file.

You can find if it is running on a port and process name by typing at a command prompt Strat>run(Type "command") when you get to a command prompt type "netstat -obna" you will get a list of executable that are involved with each port or listening ports. You can get a list of commands for NETSTAT by typing "netstat ?" after you find the file name you might have to boot in safe mode to remove it. You can run it in intervals by typing "netstat -obna 5" the five is the number of seconds it waits to run again you may change this number. Also you can look at http://www.symantec.com and do a search at the top.

I had the virus in my "System Volume Information" folder. I turned off the system backup and then turned it back on. This destorys all the XP restore points, but it did get rid of my virus.

I tried that, it didn't work. How else can it be removed?

I had Downloader.Small.5.N & Downloader.Bridge.A.

AVG found them but could not vault them. I ran Norton - didn't find them. Looked all over the internet. People suggested deleting from the files. Did not work. People suggested Spybot. I had already run that and that did not fix it. They suggested Ad-ware 6 and RegSeeker. I did both. Regseeker came up with 850 files to "delete". I was not going to delete 850 files!!! until I saw someone else say the same - and he had "taken the bull by the horns", shut his eyes and deleted without reperussion - so I did the same eventually. No prob so far. I also ran the Ad-ware 6 and deleted those files (Trusting!!) Still AVG said they were there. Rebooted, rescanned, still there. Then this morning (13.04.04) AVG said it had healed Downloader.Bridge.A. and not sign of Downloader.Small.5.N - obviously taken out by RegSeeker or Adware.

Have no idea what either Trojan Horse does but I have not been adverseley affected by any of this awful time - yet!!

It took me 3 full days of searching as neither of these were to be found anywhere.

Good luck.

I use AVG free version 6.0.684 with latest updates on a Win 98 P166Mhz 97Mb RAM PC. This seems to detect and heal downloader.keenval types B,C,D&E. My PC detects these in C:\program files\common files\updmgr. Q:Where have any other users discovered these viruses, and do you know how they infect PCs?

support.Microsoft.com

I found this link and haven't tried it yet but it's worth a shot and the best answer I have found to date. Hope it helps.

i have avg free version and it finds it, it found keenval.c, j and b twice. keeps coming back though....

The Trojan horse is install via Euniverse WUpdater - Part of the Kazaa software, deleting it and running Kazaa redownloads the software, the solution is to install Diet K dietk.com and let this remove all the background rubbish that is installed along side Kazaa.

You will also add some additional features to Kazaa, well worthwhile.

All Trojan horses are hidden files so you would need to go to the Files Option (click the View tab)at Control Panel and uncheck both the *Hide file extension for known file types & *Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)-boxes, then OK yourself out. You will then need to restart your computer and and go into Safe Mode by holding the F8 key down -(kind of at the beginning of bootup). When you're at the DeskTop screen go to Start/ Search/ For Files and Folders and type up the NAME OF THE FILE & EXT which would have shown up on your Anti-Virus software, you can delete this file from here. Also, make sure to empty your Recycle Bin.

I have had 4 Trojan horses on my C drive and kinda figured out the above method a week ago. I deleted the Temp file (as these keep putting the same files back into your system) from the Restore folder after unchecking the hidden files boxes, then went to SafeMode to delete what virus files that were still there. My computer is now absolutely FREE of these pests!

PS. I also have AVG 6.0 (the free one) & also the Ad-aware 6 and I use them every day as my kids love to play games from the Internet.

The Free AVG version will identify Trojans but doesn't delete them all. Some it will only heal (temporarily) depending on the criticality of the file.

It most cases AVG will pick up keenval c. Sometimes it identifies the existence of the Trojan during its DOS scan. When windows has fully loaded you should then run AVG from the windows desktop . Run Complete Test but make sure it is set to heal file. This should resolve your problem.

First off bridge.dll is a Trojan itself, so press start click run, type msconfig, click start up tab and uncheck bridge.dll if it is running on your startup, next click start, right click on my computer go to properties, click system restore take it off on all drives, then go to this link http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/ download the stinger antitrojan file run it on all drives, then i recommend you run avg free antivirus (at the same time if you like) these should get rid of them, also after you take off system restore go to control panel add remove programs and see if bridge.dll is on your program list uninstall it if it is (it wasnt for me) but if you do all this at the end just turn system restore back on should be gone or fixed by stinger :)

I experienced this on a cracks page running AVG: I had the AVG message about the bridge.dll Trojan come up asking me if I wanted to heal or ignore. I chose to heal, and I got a windows error saying the target of a file copy procedure (presumably the bridge.dll file) was missing. Does this mean it renamed itself already? I hope not. But I'm asking the people at Steve Gibson/AVG about it. When I run AVG on my windows/temp folder no viruses are present any longer (or so it says...) I haven't yet run the program on all drives.

I would like to know if anybody had similar experiences or knows what bridge.dll does (and will reveal this closely held trade secret...)

It has some how saved itself in one of your system restore points. Disable system restore from the system properties under control panel, should take care of things. After your sure it has been removed. Turn system restore back on.

You can remove any virus from System Volume Information, by shutting down System Restore, restarting your computer and then start System Restore Again. When you shutdown System Restore, all Restore Points are deleted (including the virus(ses)). When you restart System Restore, it automaticly makes a new (and clean) Restore-point.

Good Luck! Jawwi :-)
