I'm trying to fix a friends computer that has this virus , without much success.
I stopped the System Restore then restarted in Safe Mode. Antivirus (AVG) does not find this virus. However when the computer is started in normal mode
then AVG finds the Collected AE virus , and heals or deletes the file. But when the computer is restarted again and tested , the virus is back.
AVG has found "Collected.AE" in
C:\Docs.&Sett.\Username\Local Sett.\Temp\installer.exe
I have run AVG numerous times and it has removed it.
Everytime I try to access the internet, it comes back.
My IE starts automatically and goes to a webpage that
is not the homepage. After I close this window, I can
surf but I can see something is using my bandwidth.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
