Bro, the only program that has ever worked for me to remove this exceptionally nasty piece of software is MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware located here http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php. You do not need the registered version to scan and fix errors, just for real time protection. Good luck!

fought this sucker for a week. finally beat it for good with a prog called combofix. I think it came from my bro playing some stupid tex based game called mobwars on facebook. someone took it too seriously I think. and co ill never use a microsoft based security program.

Ever since I've had Microsof Live One Care it has been working perfect and detecting anything that tries to invade my pc. I used to have shitty Norton. That shit used to slow down my PC.

in the time I was fighting the trojan I didn't use the altec lansing heaphones and the mic broke on them (was going to fix them but found extremely uncomfortable for my small ears) I bought the Razer Barricuda head phones. anyone have these? im having a hell of a time connecting them properly. I would buy the Razer soundcard the hp-1's was designed for but its not even available. the rear mic function is being stubborn. I have to keep the audio properties open and activate it every map because it resets to line mic.

Logitech USB Headset. Around 50 bucks. Perfect Quality**, Good speakers, and cheap. Me and whyt both got it and its perfect. Works with any sound card and uses USB. Get IT.

You should have asked the forums first before buying something so expensive and tech related.

I can't be the only one out there that always buys the most expensive. shit its for me im not gonna cheap out on me!
plus I can buy the tech stuff cause I know I can come here for help! but it takes too long. so when they wonder why I won't leave l4d to come ban some idiot for them then can refer to this thread because that is why. don't expect help before helping yourself.

I dont think anyone has any suggestions because its not a common problem. Zero is the only dude who would spend more then $100 on a set of headphones. You could ask dutch.
