Windows 7: beacucqitear.exe trying to run? Also Ptch_zaccess.six malware.

Hi TooNew,

Follow my suggestion in post #7 above.

I can't get rid of Beacucqitear. When I search and try to remove it says it can't be deleted because it is open in the Left Qualifier??

running winxp but googling took me here so i'm posting my experience and the solution that worked for me.

had the same issue.

couldn't even delete beacucqitear.exe in safe mode with Admin rights, which was located in C:\Documents and Settings\Rich as a hidden file ....if u search for the file, be sure to include both hidden and system folders

i downloaded Windows Defender Offline but when i ran the program, it said i was missing and needed to install IMAPI 2.0 which i did at Download: Image Mastering API v2.0 (IMAPIv2.0) for Windows XP (KB932716) - Microsoft Download Center - Download Details

after running the M$ update, my drive actually vanished!.....even tried to get it back in the Device Manager / DVD/CD-ROM drives where the drive was being shown with a yellow exclamation point ie not recognizable or bad drive or missing driver.

i tried to update it but nothing, so i uninstalled my dvd drive and rebooted thinking it would come back, it didn't.

i therefore ran a system restore from a few days earlier [Start / Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore

and now everything is back to normal and Norton is showing a clean computer.

even that beacucqitear.exe is gone after running a full search on it!

Hey guys i just got this problem right now i sorta? fixed it but the file is still in my users area but nod 34 has it locked down but i still want it gone but im not a fan of going back 5 days as i have got lots of videos and other items that i need :P and un able to back up when i try to delete it it just says you do not have the rights -.- when i am the Admin on my pc so not sure what to do on this one ;O i am a pc nerd but when it comes to viruses im a derp any help would be most welcomed!

Also really worried as my Nod 32 seams to be turned off and i can not for the life of me turn it back on even with restarts

Am not a profi...

yesterday Mc'Affee found ZeroAccess in several endings. (.ee .eu .el) and gets this message regularly.. told me it is removed.

today beacucqitear.exe popped up - that it wants to do changes on the computer.. i denied..

deleted

now the firewall is deactivated...

whenever i try to activate McAffee firewall.. it deactivates itself within one or two seconds...

It was doing the same thing to me mate. Can you do a system restore to a earlier point? IE before it was doing it? Because I booted Windows Defender off a USB, and tons of scans but the only thing that really worked was doing a system restore to before it starting happening. Just type 'System Restore' in your windows search bar and run it. Try that.

Hi Guys,

I would have a try of hitman pro.....Hitman Pro 3 - SurfRight

See what this brings up

@stuart, a system restore does not affect your videos and such.

what it does is revert your system files and programs.

if you wish to read up on it here is a link:

it is valid for xp, 7, etc.

System Restore - Windows 7 features - Microsoft Windows

@Stern, after system restore, you might need to uninstall McAfee and reinstall it if it is working oddly.

You can use McAfee's removal tool here:

1) Uninstall McAfee via normal way.
2) Run McAfee's removal tool, i'd actually recommend running twice, rebooting between each run.
here's a link to the mcpr.exe and documents at McAfee's website: How to uninstall or reinstall supported McAfee products using the Consumer Products Removal tool (MCPR)
3) Reinstall McAfee.

i prefer Norton myself.

Hi,

If this is a newer variant of the Sirefef malware, you are strongly advised to wipe your systems and install from scratch:

For wiping previous installations:
Disk - Clean and Clean All with Diskpart Command

For retail Windows 7 installations:
Clean Install Windows 7

For OEM (pre-installed) Windows 7 installations:
Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7
