Stick with one Anti-virus software package that is the best way to avoid more problems occuring. Also get a personal firewall Wink

Windows Firewall just doesn't cut it for me i went with Hacker Smacker 3.0, and i use NOD32 with these i haven't had one virus get on my system undetected. Smile

I would recommend both of these and i would rate them A+ security software.

Viruses like that stop things named regedit but they can't stop other available programs with similar functions but different names. I think you can just take your regedit, copy it, and rename it. http://www.dcsoft.com/products/regeditx/ as an example of an alternate registry editor program.

I usually use NOD32 AntiVirus.

Until now, everything is OK. NOD32 has Advanced Heuristic Scanning that it can detect New Virus (Unknown Virus, like local virus). Although we don't update data virus.

Thanks.

Hey ... here's a way to quickly enable regedit and task manager

To enable Regedit

Click Start, Run and type this command exactly as given below: (better - Copy and paste)

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

To enable task manager : (To kill the process we need to enable task manager)

Click Start, Run and type this command exactly as given below: (better - Copy and paste)

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

This Brontok virus had affected many computers in my place and there were also other viruses affecting the system - ravmon and drvmon !

I tried removing it manually. Had a tough time disinfecting the computers manually. Sometimes it shut down the system when u get regedit to open. Confused

Kill the virus from Task manager. (ravmov, drvmon, I don't know if Brontok is separate from these )

I searched and delete the files which are .exe and of a particular size.
Then went to the registry keys by searching for ravmon , drvmon, kesenjangansosial and deleted the entries.

I don't see any signs of the virus in that computer now. I think it is destroyed.
