Title: FBI moneypak virus, how to remove it?
Post by: Magic Mike on November 19, 2012, 09:23:38 AM

I've tried Google and YouTube. But it won't let me get into safe mode to go delete the virus.

i had a pc that got this; I end up reformatting the damn thing.  It'll take me longer to try and remove the malware then to reformat the box.

LOL.  I know ;D.  But I usually stay away from bad sites because I use my PC for everything and I can't afford to have trojans, keyloggers, and virus on my computer.

sometimes the best way is to format and start over. Doesn't take long.. I have fresh installed OS on a back up hard drive with cloning software and all drivers. When shits happen beyond repair, I simply just boot it up with back up hard drive, clone it and done. Put back up away.

removing tough viruses takes too long and it's not always 100% clean.. get into the habit of having back up's.

What version of Windows? Can you get into safe mode with command prompt? If you can create a new user.  Reboot, log into the new account, let the money pack start.  Press the start button to bring you back to the login screen, log into your regular account.  Download or update malwarebytes, run a full scan.  Reboot, it will be gone.  Now go run a few online spyware/virus scanners.

When I say start button, the power button.  Also when you are in command prompt safe mode, navigate to each user account and delete everything in the startup group for all users and default user as well.
