I downloaded this to try and clean off the Aurora
adware. Both Norton and Spybot claim to be able to get
rid of it, but neither could see it on my system. The
Microsoft program sees it and tries to get rid of it, but
is never successful. I tried to submit this comment
through the help form inside the program, but couldn't
seem to make that work.
 
Hi There

Here's a fix for Aurora


Download Adaware SE
--------------------
http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-
8022_4-10045910.html

Get all updates and close Adaware


Download Adaware's VX2 cleaner Plugin
--------------------------------------

http://updates.ls-servers.com/vx2cleaner.zip

Save to desktop then extract and run the installer which
will install the cleaner into the Adaware Plugins folder


Download Ccleaner
-------------------

http://www.ccleaner.com/ccdownload.asp


Run Adaware SE and choose Add-Ons from the main
menu.Select VX2 Cleaner from the list.

Click the "Run Tool" button in the lower right corner of
the window.Click "OK" when asked if you want to execute
this tool.It will say VX2 variant found then press
clean.Next it will say to reboot and run a smart scan
with Adaware.


Reboot and run a full scan with Adaware SE and remove
anything found

Run Ccleaner and press "Run Ccleaner"


This will now be fixed but there will still be a file
left in the windows folder that isnt active, Its a random
name and can be identified as a gray globe icon with a
thin orange strip going around it and when you move your
mouse over this it will show Aurora and DirectRevenue in
the details, Delete this or if you have problems use
Ewido Security Suite and this will delete that file


Download Ewido if needed

------------------------------

http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

When installing, under "Additional Options"
uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via
context menu".

From the main ewido screen, click on update in the left
menu, then click the Start update button.

After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom
will display "Update successful")

From the main menu click Scanner the Complete system scan
and remove anything found.


Let us know if you have any problems

Regards Andy
