Can i delete the above file if it is infected. It is located in this place WINNT/SYSTEM. I seem to have a virus called VBS.REDLOF.A. Most of the infected files have been removed by me and the changes that were made to the registry by the virus have also been ammended and my norton av has quaranteened this file kernel32.dll. so what i need to know is this:-

1. Can i safely delete this file?
2. If i cannot can i replace it? If yes then where can i download a clean version of this file?

Thanks in advance for any input on this problem.

No u cannot delete it, its a system file. U will have to replace it using duering system boot, thats how i did it long ago.
As for getting that file, google it or there may be a i386 folder in WINDOWS directory, open it and search for kernel32.dl_ or something like this, open the file in WinRAR and extract the file, then try replacing it or u can use ur Windows XP CD.
Also wait for more replies
 
on a similar note, my svchost.exe(i use xp home) has been affected bya trojan, and my NOD32 antivirus says it cant quarantine or heal or delete this thing. i know this file is important to windows, but what can i do about this infection?

can i do the same what shwethanshu said?

Coming back to life ..
First .. its not Kernel32.dll .. Its Kernel.dll ..and yes you can infact you should delete that file .. Reboot in safe mode and first delete Kernel.dll from Window Directory and then Search for Folder.htt (enable hidden and system view first) and delete all of them .. Redlof makes yours system very slow .. After deleting Folder.htt your folder view settings will be lost which you can re enable by running Internet Explorer setup again ..

No it surely is this file i re-checked in c:\WINNT\system32\kernel32.dll
Now what should i do?? :? I have already deleted all files detected by norton named folder.htt !

Ok there is another problem which i am facing now and i want to put in a different post to differentiate it (please im not after post count so Forgive!)
Anyways my norton has been detecting this virus called the trojan.startpage.m and has been putting all these dll files into my quarantine page.

First, should i delete them?
Second how do i get rid of this infection as norton can't manage to clean them...just quietly quarantines?

Trojan.StartPage is the About:Blank browser Hijacker. This can not be removed by AntiVirus programs.
Download CleanUp! and install it. Boot in safe mode and run CleanUp! and click "Options", and here move the slider to "Thorough CleanUp!" and click OK to the warning message, and exit from Options. Then click "CleanUp!" to start cleaning of junk files, after cleaning, click "Close" and reboot to Normal Mode, download HijackThis and unzip it to dedicated folder (like C:\HijackThisFolder\hijackthis.exe).
Then run it and click the button Do a System scan and save log file. HijackThis will perform a scan and saves the log file as hijackthis.log in the same folder where it is installed and it also opens the file automatically.
Copy the contents of the log file and post it.

I think you got infected by Kriz. It replaces the Kernel32.dll file by it's own infected file. You have to replace the original file.
Do you have the Win2000 CD or Setup files backup? If yes, follow these steps:-
1] Loctae this CAB file--> X:\i386\driver.cab where X:\ is your CD drive letter. Then use any compresseion tool such as WinZip or WinRAR to open the driver.cab file.
2] Here locate the file kernel32.dll and extract it.
3] Then place the extracted file inside this folder --> Y:\winnt\System32\ where Y:\ is the drive where Win2000 is installed (like C:\ drive).

Ok now here is a funny thing. My Norton av corporate edt. has put this file in quarantine and when i go the folder c:\winnt\system32.dll and scan this file individuvally for virus it says it is clean. But in the real time scans it is saying it is corrupted by vbs.redlof.a???
What is happening??
When as you mentioned i unzipped and found a fresh kernel32.dll file which is around 732k and the corrupted one is around 716k. Now i should replace the older one with the fresh unzipped one in normal windows mode.
Awaiting your comments. Thanks!!

1] Download these tools:-
CWShredder
SpSeHjFix


2] Create a folder called SpFix on Desktop, and extract the SpSeFix.ZIP file contents to that folder.
Go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel, and here uninstall Wind Updates.


3] Boot in safe mode.
Run HijackThis, and put a checkmark against these entries:-

O2 - BHO: &EliteBar - {28CAEFF3-0F18-4036-B504-51D73BD81ABC} - C:\WINNT\EliteToolBar\EliteToolBar version 60.dll

O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Show &Related Links - {c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a} - C:\WINNT\web\related.htm


Then close all other open programs except HijackThis, and click "Fix Checked".

Exit from HijackThis, and delete this file:-
C:\winnt\system32\eliteays32.exe

Delete these Folders ( and also the files which may exist inside these folders ):-
C:\WINNT\EliteToolBar
C:\Program Files\Windows TaskAd


4] Run SpSeHjFix.exe and click "Start Disinfection". When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process. The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder that SpSeHjfix is located in.
Now run CWShredder and click on the "Fix" button.


5] Post a fresh HijackThis log and also the log the SpSeHjFix created.
Please keep in mind that, Startpage.m is not removed now. You have to follow above steps and post a new HijackThis log to remove the About:Blank Hijacker.

Do you know what is this file/folder --> e:\a98be2dce84199fc2e6cb8d650605ebc\update\update.exe , have you downloaded any updates from Microsoft or any other software?

Hi, forgot to mention it. You have to do it in Command Prompt mode. Copy the fresh kernel32.dll file to some other folder (like C:\kernel32.dll). Then restart your PC, and press F8 to get the boot menu, here choose "Command Prompt mode" and then copy the fresh kernel32.dll and paste it in System32 folder. Before doing this create a backup of current kernel32.dll file ("infected") using WinZip or any other compression tool.

Example:- Type this command at Command Prompt, if your fresh file is stored in C:\ drive.
copy C:\kernel32.dll C:\Winnt\System32\ and press ENTER.

Boot your system using the Norton Rescue disk which you created during NAV or Systemworks setup.
Scan the entire system for viruses and deleate all the infected files by doing this you be able to delete
all infected windows system files which are memory resident and cannot be deleted under windows.
After doing this reboot your system and now boot with your windows cd and use the repair option when setup detects your windows installation and prompts for repairing the previous installation.
After setup completes boot with your hdd and now your problem should be solved without loosing any files and settings.

Then close all other open programs except HijackThis, and click "Fix Checked".
Did this some entries where missing as i informed above that i used microsoft anti-spyware beta edition.

Exit from HijackThis, and delete this file:-
C:\winnt\system32\eliteays32.exe
Yes i deleted this file. But there is another file called elitefaw32.exe created on the same day. Do i delete this as well??

swatkat said:
Delete these Folders ( and also the files which may exist inside these folders ):-
C:\WINNT\EliteToolBar
C:\Program Files\Windows TaskAd
There is another folder in C:\WINNT\EliteSideBar what should i do with this??

swatkat said:
4] Run SpSeHjFix.exe and click "Start Disinfection". When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process. The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder that SpSeHjfix is located in.
Now run CWShredder and click on the "Fix" button.
Firstly computer did not re-boot on its own so i did it. Cwshredder came out clean.

swatkat said:
5] Post a fresh HijackThis log and also the log the SpSeHjFix created.
Please keep in mind that, Startpage.m is not removed now. You have to follow above steps and post a new HijackThis log to remove the About:Blank Hijacker.

Do you know what is this file/folder --> e:\a98be2dce84199fc2e6cb8d650605ebc\update\update.exe , have you downloaded any updates from Micros
oft or any other software?

Yes i downloaded some security patch and windows 2000 service pack 2 also and installed it..
