  22. me Apr 13, 2009

    is this thread legit

  23. Cr Apr 13, 2009

    we found ONE file and deleted it and that took care of the problem. WE were happy to have this information. At first we thought we would have to locate all of the files listed but we didnt.

  24. CR Apr 13, 2009

    If this virus has blocked access to your internet here is another website to access from another computer that provides manual directions to delete this found ONE file from the above list and deleted that which eliminated the virus.

    At first we were overwhelmed with thinking about how we could find all of the files.

  25. JR Apr 13, 2009

    website provides manual instructions to delete this virus.

  26. Bob Apr 13, 2009

    I've seen a lot of people ask if this thread is for real, and since I haven't seen a definitive yes yet, I'd like one.

  27. Otto Apr 15, 2009

    I've got the same infection and removed it after reading blog

  28. Valerie Apr 15, 2009

    Bob - You want an opinion? YES!! This is a very REAL threat! This virus is quite malicious and can destroy your computer at least, and aid the authors in identity threat at most.

  29. crazy mfer Apr 15, 2009

    i'll chop ur faces off if i find out who is behind this program.

  30. Roy Apr 16, 2009

  32. af Apr 18, 2009

    WTF man i cant find any of those processes on my process list...except for sysguard.exe

  33. Jen Apr 20, 2009

    I had the annoying pop-ups and the spyware demo kept coming up on its own, so I searched for ways to delete it from my system. The following website details which files you can look for and remove. The only place I had to remove any files was from the registry. You have to be careful though, so you don't remove anything else by mistake. So far it has worked, and I haven't had any more issues (yet).

  34. Tom Apr 21, 2009

    Your lists about which processes to stop and which files to remove was very important and helpful to me - thank you! First I had tried a tool for automatic removement, but it didn't work as my PC still runs on Windows 2000. So the only possibility was to delete the files manually - but you have to know which ones :-)! Thanks again!

  35. rigged Apr 21, 2009

    im having the same problem as jay rob and jason and g dubz i think. i ran some malware program and it removed most of this kunt of a virus. no more rigged pop ups, but also no internet connection. the lil icon in the system tray says acquiring network address. its putting me on m*****ive tilt. im going to go through and manually take everything out..i was trying to watch that show eastbound and down..i hope the creators of that virus rot in eternal hell.

  36. tom Apr 23, 2009

    OK...I can't even access the internet...how do I fix my system? I have deleted the registries, etc but cannot get my internet to work. Can't run System Restore either. I can see previous restore dates but it won't let me click on "next" to run it.

  37. Pcthreat Apr 24, 2009

    Tom,
    try downloading Spyhunter on another machine and the use a USB flash to install it.

  38. tom Apr 24, 2009

    Will this reset my internet settings? I've gotten rid of the spyware files (I believe) and have deleted the registries. I don't get anymore popups, etc but just can't access the internet now.

    Thanks you !!!!!

  39. tom Apr 24, 2009

    Can't transfer it via flash drive...it's 22mb. I don't have a flash that big. Any other ideas? If I could just get my internet unblocked, or whatever is going on, I can download it directly right away.

    Thanks !!
    tom

  40. Gander Apr 25, 2009

    This thing is brutal.... thank god for another laptop in my house. Removed the iehelper.dll, and the pop ups have ceased, yet I cannot upgrade my AV because no connectivity.... Just like Tom, "any ideas"?

  41. ... Apr 25, 2009

    Thanks so much for this list, it really really helped.
    I was getting quite pissed off that i couldn't find out what was wrong.

  42. j Apr 30, 2009

    I think i was hacked, as soon as my wife got on the web site

  43. S.O.B. May 4, 2009

    this trojan is a bitch. I just removed it. it took me hours though.
    I am going to get my shotgun and shoot the bastard who made this.

  44. Alex May 10, 2009

    I just CTRL ALT DELETEd the application "sysguardn.exe," and it stopped the problem temporarily.

    But I think next time I reboot my computer, it might start up again automatically if it has truly installed itself.

  45. Matty May 11, 2009

    go all over and even temp files what ever is not familer get rid of registry to. I did not download this I was warned, get rid of anything you think is not to be there and restart. good luck

  46. Bill May 13, 2009

    I'm running Windows XP Pro -- this has gotten into my personal user account twice now -- if I login as administrator I can remove it. I login as admin only when necessary and disconnect from the wireless network as much as I can while logged in as admin.

    For future reference, maybe that's one way around it -- another identity with admin privileges.

    But I'm still downloading this and another malware freebie just to be sure I'm clean.

  47. Shivi May 14, 2009

    GUYS SIMPLE PROCESS -- Login in Safe mode with networking option.Windows will ask if you want to continue to safe mode or use system restore. Click on 'no' which will throw the system restore screen.Restore to the latest available point before you got the spyware protect bit**.

  48. Stranger May 16, 2009

    Guys, as Simon mentioned very important thing that is not mentioned in the article above...

    Take a look at your /%rootdir%/SYSTEM32/DRIVERS/etc/hosts file
    for ordinary users it should contain only line

    ::1 localhost

    remove all other lines, as that adware adds reference to its website there replacing known good website's ip-addresees with its website, and when you start your IE you will get that thing on your computer again and again.

  49. Stranger May 16, 2009

    continuing the story as comments area length is limited ...

    IT-guys should know themselves what it supposed to be, if they changed "hosts" file for their purpose.
    also Spyware Protect 2009 DLL's to remove - usually located in /%rootdir%/system32/
    Files *****ociated with Spyware Protect 2009 infection - usually located in /%rootdir%/

    /%rootdir%/ - usually is c:\WINNT\ or c:\WINDOWS\ folder

  50. Stranger May 16, 2009

    continuing the story again as comments area length is limited ...

    I am going to try to create empty fake files with names sysguardn.exe and iehelper.dll and make them readonly, we will see if that helps

    good luck to everyone

  51. Stranger May 16, 2009

    and also make "hosts" file read only too.

  52. Stranger May 16, 2009

    the file or process also can be named sysguard.exe or sysguardn.exe

  53. Jorge May 16, 2009

    i love u guys so much!!! all i did was 3 things: delete sysguard in processes, then kill sysguard.exe and finally restarting my computer!! now im virus-free! XDDD

  54. Browser May 22, 2009

    HELLO the spyware 2009 sets your browser up to use a PROXY SERVER
    go to tools >CONNECTIONS and configure your browser back to DIRECT INTERNET CONNECTION

    you still have to get rid of the spyware but at least you will have internet

    what a lame stupid little annoyance
    I could make a better virus than this in 5 minutes on a 386

  55. Tom..entries 37 to 40 May 26, 2009

    OK....I still can't get internet to work. I've tried system restore and click on "next" button but it doesn't do anything...even in safe mode. I've killed all "running" files in task mgr and system is running great but no internet. I've checked interenet options and everything looks fine. I tried checking the "system32/drivers/etc...Host" file but can't open it to see if "localhost" is the only line in the file.
    I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions ? Please ???

  56. Mavrick Jun 26, 2009

    These are awesome suggestions, but what happens when it start telling you that you are the administrator and so your options are either further limited, for crying out load, there are only so many files i can enter!!!!

  57. Mavrick Jun 26, 2009

    Oh,i found the files though a infinite search, but i cant delete them

  58. Mavrick Jun 26, 2009

    I managed to get it off, but unfortunately, none of the files listed above i didn't find them. But it gave me an idea, thanks never the less.

  59. Emeraldmatrix Jul 26, 2009

    Spyware Protect locked up my system and blocked any programs I would try to run, safe mode or not. I booted into safemode command prompt. Removed usp10.dll from windows\system32 and windows\system32\dllcache. Found no other listed files. I also removed two folders that were in the c:\documents and settings\all users\application data folder: "10307964" & "15194844". Seems they're not always the same. 1 'unknown file' in each.
    Looks like this thread IS real! Good luck

  60. april Aug 20, 2009

    i can't find any of the processes to remove from my spyware protect 2009

  61. loran mohammed Nov 6, 2009
