Hi everyone! Discovered your site while doing a search for some strange registry entries I seem to be blessed with. Going to peruse the forum and see if I can find the answers I'm looking for before I ask if anyone knows what they are.
I am a web technologist by profession, so if I can help anyone with any website or web related issues, feel free to ask and I'll do my best to help. Casseandra (Casse) -------------------- Bugs are sons of glitches.

Hello Scarlet
My name is Mike a.k.a. HappyKat from Toronto in Canadaland. This is my first time maneuvering in a disscussion forum and from the looks of the posts before me...it seems like this site is held in high regards. Happy I found it. |

I just found this site after getting burned by a Malware attack. I tried to be clever and eliminate it myself. I even used the XP original disk to operate in command mode and erase several files that were protected when XP and all the files were running. I did pretty good, but it still had an executable "Ypiapy.exe" that would spawn a new copy of itself in system32 and, of course execute.
I also lost the ability to change my background on the desktop. After reading the forum here and a post by MFDnSC on "Spyware has changed my Desktop Background" I installed Ewido and running in Safe Mode it found an item in my boot.inx file. That seemed to take care of the Spyware and then the vb script in that post at www.thespykiller.co.uk/files/cleandesktop.exe fixed the desktop. Interesting to note is that Ypiapy.exe was not visible in the Windows Task Manager. But it was detected as running with DllView. Anyway after two days of sweat and just about ready to reload my system I am now running again and I know have learned that you can get infected just by visiting a site!
