Vista trojan.brisv.a inf

I tried the symantec tool for this but it says that it was not found. But when i go into the unresolved security risks in my norton program it says that the trojan is there and needs maunal removal. How do i do that? Gotcha Contributor 4. I'm glad and sad I found this forum. Sad there is not an answer to my problem yet, but I'm glad because I'm not alone, I also cannot remove this virus.

I got my computer into safe mode, and diconnected my internet connection as the instructions said. Even in safe mode that scanner I downloaded cannot find the virus. Then I do a virus scan again and it's still in my computer somewhere. Perhaps the scanner I downloaded wont look in certain places?

Also, how do I find the containing files and folders that has this virus. Break it to me gently, what will I lose on my computer if I don't fix this file? Message Edited by Gotcha on AM.

You can find the files in the results summary by clicking on the trojan. Last night I herded them into a folder but since have done stupid things. I now cant find two of the files that were infected. I now have three of them in a folder that the scan sees. I will leave them tere and continue to look for the others to put in there. I dont know anything. Yup they are moving around one of the files that was infected this AM and last noc is now scanning clean.

Strange thing though. I share this computer with one of my daughters and she claims she didnt download these files. Is it possible it came in with recent downloads. I wanna be a Nerd so bad at this moment:. I don't know how do get them and save them, at this unknown locale, and what's a flip drive? Why are you even doing that? Is this how I get rid of this virus?

If it's not too much trouble, tell me how you did this each step. That would be the Attention Required to find the files. A flip drive is a portable USB drive. I am so frustrated at this point. I really dont want to lose my programs by having to restore this laptop to factory and spend numerous hours updating all it's programs.

I still don't know how to find the files. I have been trying now since I read your post. I'm definately getting wore out with this one. Shouldn't Symantec be coming out with some new device to fix this issue if that one they have now don't work?

Are they even aware? Shouldn't some new update come out to fix that scanner they had us download. Why do we have to turn into rocket scientists or computer programmers? It's their job to upgrade that scanner. What do you think is being done about that?

Well that settles that. It wont let me transfer the folder. And it didnt transfer the folder to my external drive on a back up. I have been on the live chat again with norton. I have since narrowed the culprits to be two mp3 files in my sons user account music folder. I cannot delete these although it lets me rename them i. Anybody know which registry items to alter so I can delete these. Exactly, this is beyond us. How then do we get Norton to fix it? Will I now have this virus forever?

And if anyone knows of the registry files to be deleted, let me know. I dont think it's right you have to pay 69 bucks to get someone to remote delete these registry files. That will be more in dollars, my quote was in pounds.

Yeah why should we have to pay for something that slips through the net!!!!! Furthermore, we already paid for the software. We are paying them already. Tried the same tool in both normal and safe mode.

The tool says that Trojan. A could not be found. When I do a scan again in Norton , it finds 3 entries but cannot delete them. I have been on the live chat then asked to go to symantic. So the Removal tool did work after all. After saying it didn't work by posters I have been reading the reverse engineering document etc. You may find that the infection is gone but the infection over writes the original audo files could be still there.

Same name as the original file eg. The tool gets rid of the Trojan, but this is the second person, that has manually deleted the music files. The Music files even though the same name is a completely re-written file by the trojan in "asf". It's not the original. Just delete those 2 files, searching for ". After deleting those 2 files all should be done.

I paid I know which file it is in but when I try to delete it it says it is in use or I don't have permission. Any ideas on how to delete it without spending another 5 hours dealing with a person in a chatroom that takes his time with every response? Yes, I'm a little grumpy and bitter. Please download and create a hijackthis log, I will check to see if a process is running, connected to the music file. Back to top. Reg: I got this virus that my Norton Antivirus program detected.

I do a system scan and norton is not detecting it but it still shows up in the unresolved section. Its not doing much to my computer other than i cannot listen to music. Its very annoying and i have downloaded Malwarebytes Anti malware software to try and get rid of the problem. The problem with that is it is not detecting it either. Any suggestions about how to get rid of this annoying thing??? I have the same question 0. Accepted Solution. View Accepted Solution in Context.

I have Windows Vista and today during a back up to an external drive this wonderful gift shows up in five different files. I tried the removal tool in safe mode and it doesnt detect the virus but in full scan it shows up again and again and again.

And it even showed up in a Symatec temp file. I am pulling my hair out. Any suggestions? Do you mean you tried the tool from Quads? I ran this tool four times. I even herded the files into one folder and in safe mode deleted the folder. I was looking at that in another thread I will give it a try. Ok, please post back so we know what happend.

What strange behaviour are you experiencing? Are you able to locate the file? Malware Submission. When I attemp to open one of the files to upload it tells me that I dont have permission to. I even tried to drag it over. Just curious. Are you able to reach it within safe mode? I cannot reach online in safe mode so I cant move them to the symatec folder for upload. At one point I had all the files in one folder and in safe mode it did allow me to move the folder to the recycling bin but when I returned to normal mode the files had returned tothe music folders.

This is very frustrating and kind of scary. It seems the more I attempt to kill it the more corrupt my OS is acting though I dont see the virus moving around other than the one time it moved into a symatec temp file. I have run the removal program five times under five different set ups and it doesnt see the virus and I ran full scan post which sees the virus every time. Any other ideas? Have Norton got an answer for this? Even in safe mode that scanner I downloaded cannot find the virus.

Then I do a virus scan again and it's still in my computer somewhere. Perhaps the scanner I downloaded wont look in certain places?

They are the ones that has virus software that removes these issues. Why isn't an update for this being done right now! I'm sorry. I do not mean to be post happy. Is there ever going to be a different answer then you must pay alot of money? I am unemployed right now so if my computer craps out
