Virus: DOS/Rovnix.V found by MSE but cannot be found to delete. Please help!


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I ran Microsoft Security Essentials on my vista computer and it found:

Virus:DOS/Rovnix.V

more information- boot:\\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0\Partition1 (NTFS) -> [Obfuscator]

Virus:Win32/Rovnix.gen!.C

more information- rootkit:Rovnix->Vbr::Rovnix

MSE could not find the above to delete, therefore it told me to download and run MSE offline, I did this but they still couldn't be found.

Please help, my computer has become really slow, I can't even use internet explorer anymore.

Note: I think I've had these harmful files on my computer for over a month.

Also, I don't really know much about computers.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

EnglishVic6

Please download RogueKiller from here:

  • Make sure to get the correct version for your system.
  • Quit all running programs
  • Please disconnect any USB or external drives from the computer before you run this scan!
  • For Vista/Seven, right click -> run as administrator, for XP simply run RogueKiller.exe

  • The log should be found in RKreport[?].txt on your Desktop
  • Exit/Close RogueKiller


     
    Next,
     
    Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.
     
    Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system (32 bit or 64 bit). If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
Press Scan button.
It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please copy and paste it to your reply.
The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.

 

Let me see those logs in your next reply...

 

Kevin
