MSE took so long to remove 3 types of Sirefef
Greetings Sires and mi Ladies,
Please provide your expert advice on this:
My Dad's laptop keep restarting after a BSOD but was okay after opting for "last known good configuration" by pressing F8 BUT! It restarted with MSE's warning that PC is infected, so I didn't immediately clicked MSE's "clean button" but opened MSE's GUI and ran a full scan. This scan of course already took almost 1 hour so I went to sleep. I woke up later at around 1640 hours and found that MSE already finished scanning and got the following infections to which I immediately clicked "clean computer"
- TrojanDropper:Win32/Sirefef.B
- Trojan:WinNT/Sirefef.J
- Trojan:Win32/Sirefef.AH
The time now is 1918 hours and MSE is still running, trying to remove the infection. I am beginning to think that MSE (because it is not yet updated) will not be able to remove these infections. I will leave it till 2200 hours before forcing shut down but in the mean time please advise. Any tips and tricks and views and opinions including everything in between are all welcomed.
regards to you all and God Bless,
Zeamann.
