i recently got a bloodhound virus through msn. a freind "apparently" sent me a file. i later discovered that it wasnt her. but norton did not detect this even after scanning the file..
so i deleted it but i begun getting norton popups telling me that my outgoing emails could not b sent. i havnt sent any emails for weeks.
so i did a full system scan and it found tis bloodhound virus. at this point i was relieved and removed it.. but that wasnt the end. i removed it twice more and still it kept popping up. whats worse is norton cant detect the virus now but im still getting messages. ive even tried changing my passwords
is there a way to completely remove this coz its causing major problems now. i talked to symnatec but they said for them to fix it i would have to pay their premium £64 rate.. HA dont think so

Take a look at the Symantec article on the subject located here.
Also, take a look at this wiki comment.
Finally, this one.
Are you sure that you did not delete a Windows file that caused your e-mail to malfunction?
If Norton did not detect it, how did you find it?

OP
norton detected it the first three times but after that it couldnt find it anymore. however it has now stopped giving me grief and has subsided after i changed every password i could think of.
but the file which caused this problem wont delete. is there a way to delete it coz my freind also has it on her pc but thankfully i warned her just in time.
because of this i no longer use any file sharing utility wether it be msn or limewire.
but thankyou for the helpful articles... much appreciated

theres me thinking i got rid of it bt its come back bt this time norton picked up on it and it says it is located in a file, a registry entry and a process
under details im guessing this is the registry location
it says
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\Run->likooje
but reading the instructions on how to remove it from the system editor and the registry is all gobbledigook to me

file is known as c:windows\system32\tymis.exe
processes are known as c:windows\system32\tymis.exe -- must be the file creating the processes
registry is known as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run->likooje
ive tried to understand the step by step of deleting registry files but it just doesnt make sence to me
