    Posted Oct 30, 2010 09:40 AM

    Hello,

     

    I have headache with virus that create many tun of exe and cmd and no extension file as below.

     

    I don't know how to get rid of these virus file. I can't delete or move it and can't see it in save mode because in capture that I post to you I can see When browse from another server to this share drive!!!!

     

    Please guide me to clean it. it don't work on save mode and I tried it already.

     

    and another problem is when I scan virus then If I stop it, My Server will Hang immediately. I think it's because of virus.

    I try to kill that virus file by use attrib command for -S -H -R and del that file but after I try to del that file my server is hang too.

    did you check if any suspicious process is there? if yes submit, did you run the latest Rapid Release definition.

     

    If not, open a support case and provide the team Load point tool results, the Support team will analyze and provide you the files which needs to be submitted.

    I don't think symantec support won't remote to support server that have virus.

    Symantec support has webex with which they can remote to infected machines without getting infected.

    However you should submit all suspicious/virus files to

    http://www.symantec.com/business/security_response/submitsamples.jsp

     

    Also use Autoruns to find out the suspicious files check the article in my signature

    Disable auto-play feature on all the computers  as  soon as possible. Make sure you  SEP AV/AS definitions are  latest.

    If SEP still could not detect anything, please  submit the files to security response. Please  contact technical support, ASAP.

    Make sure you scan you machine in safe mode once with latest virus definition.

    To clean this system from threats, try running the Power Eraser tool.

    http://security.symantec.com/nbrt/npe.asp?lcid=1033&origin=default

     

    The Norton Power Eraser uses aggressive methods to detect threats, there is a risk that it can select some legitimate programs for removal. You should use this tool very carefully, and only after you have exhausted other options.

     

    Good luck,

    Thomas

    Here's what I would do:

    -Set the folder with all the files to read only for all users except yourself

    -Upload the files to security response

    -Upload a few to www.threatexpert.com to see if they are communicating anywhere outside the network as well as to see what system changes they are making

    -Delete all of the suspect files from that folder

    -Disable autorun

    -Block any communication/changes the threats are making according to the threatexpert report

    -Once you get a detection for the threats from security response scan all machines in the network to ensure they are clean

    -Change the folder back from read only
