From Andy:
Aurora isnt easy to remove follow the fix below and email
me if you have any problems
Upon running Aurora.exe, the following items are created:
- Deletes Aurora.exe & creates
C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe, then a chain reaction:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Poller.exe, which creates
C:\WINDOWS\system32\magihjz.exe [random filename]
C:\WINDOWS\svcproc.exe
C:\WINDOWS\tdtb.exe
C:\WINDOWS\qvbdnifharv.exe
C:\WINDOWS\dbwqis.exe
C:\WINDOWS\GGEEINPO.ini
C:\WINDOWS\system32\magihjz.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository\FS\INDEX.MAP
C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository\FS\OBJECTS.MAP
C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository\FS\MAPPING2.MAP
C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository\FS\MAPPING.VER
C:\WINDOWS\lu.dat
C:\WINDOWS\kwv2.dat
C:\WINDOWS\kwv2Temp.dat
C:\WINDOWS\wupdt.exe
C:\WINDOWS\TMP_FILE_0.tmp
C:\WINDOWS\TMP_FILE_1.tmp
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\testUpdate.txt
Populates Internet Explorer cache with ads and tracking
cookies, and populates the user's Temp folder.
Creates a Run entry in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersi
on\Run for wupdt.exe & magihjz.exe so that it runs when
the user restarts.
Nail.exe generates "exe" files in the System folder
with random names,they will be 74kb in size and have TODO
writen when you right click and view properties.svcproc
is running as a windows sevice,bolger.dll installs as a
BHO
Looking at ABetterInternet's EULA :
----------------------------------------------------------
Uninstall and Remove Software - You may uninstall the
Software at any time by visiting
www.mypctuneup.com.
Visiting
www.mypctuneup.com is the primary method to
properly remove the Software. MyPCTuneUp will leave
behind a unique identifier on your computer for the sole
purpose of notifying ABI that you no longer want the
Software to operate on your computer.
This comes from BetterInternet though (makers of Aurora)
"The MyPCTuneUp uninstaller program will never collect
any personally identifiable information, it will not
install any additional programs, and it will delete
itself once it finishes the uninstall process."
Yet the EULA says
"Visiting
www.mypctuneup.com is the primary method to
properly remove the Software. MyPCTuneUp will leave
behind a unique identifier on your computer for the sole
purpose of notifying ABI that you no longer want the
Software to operate on your computer."
Contradicts big time but if your infected you dont have
much to lose it could fix it fast for you.
To go for this manually heres the best way:
I know this involves alot
of programs but i dont think any of the scanners alone
will remove this yet.
For Aurora Use This Fix
