COKEDUDEUSF Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 I have a NASTY virus that I need some ideas and help to remove. So far it is preventing me from accessing my task manager and msconfig. It is also preventing me from logging into safe mode. The computer is Windows XP.
uid0 Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 If you don't have a win pe / bartpe disk, you could try autoruns and process explorer - some malware prevents these running based on their filename, so try renaming them if they fail to launch.Good luck!
Tripredacus Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Sometimes the virus is dumb... You could try to make a copy of taskmgr.exe and rename it and see if the renamed, copy is able to open.
