RONTOKBRO.C Worm problem

I realize I should be posting this in another forum but I'm unable to connect to that one. I have been trying to get rid of this Rontokbro worm for two days now. It will not let me do much of anything - including download HiJackThis or Killbox. I have no access to msconfig and cannot use restore function and am not able to use regedit. I have been able to download Trend Micro Sysclean but running that did not help in any way.

I'm not completely computer illiterate but I know nothing about getting rid of worms.

I an a missionary in rural Kenya and my internet connection speed is really slow and pretty expensive since even local calls are chargable.

I have a pretty good working backup system and I'm seriously considering rebooting my OS (Windows XP Home SP2).

Re: RONTOKBRO.C Worm problem

Try downloading HijackThis (250K) and Killbox (70K) from another PC to diskette or memory stick. Rename those files to something like FIX_HJT.EXE and FIX_KB.EXE in case the blocking processes are looking for these tools by name.


We could really use HijackThis to help make a dent in what is going on in your PC.

Re: RONTOKBRO.C Worm problem

Thanks for all your help and concern. I ended up taking my computer mem cards to nairobi and had the worm removed - they said over 10,000 files were infected!

Larry

PS - I have now downloaded hijackthis and killbox for future use.
