just ran avira full scan
says theirs 69 infections
but says it here
c\qoobox\quarantine\c\documents settings \shell \share,,,song title artist,,mp3 virus.
contained a virus exp /asf,get codec.gen(exploit)action taken ,,,ignored

this this ok??

it wolud appear to me that some of the song are in several files,,ie
window media player.itunes..separate files as well

came across a few other songs in the files that ask for download as something is missing so deleted them as well....it would appear they would have to be done one by one as you come across them??

c\qoobox\quarantine\c\documents settings \shell \share,,,so etc is combofixs vault. So its fine for avira to remove them or leave them.

are all 69 infections mp3s then?

Just remove what you can from where you can (Its quite possible theyve infected your media players too though)

lucky really as i haven't transferred the music from one computer to another,,
but because i tunes steals music from all other media players on the pc,,,im assuming she/he copied music from p2p site down loaded to files then shared them with windows and i tunes...hence 31 of the infected files are coppies of infected files
most of them appear to be mp3 ,,,2 videos ,,,havent come across the others as yet..

as most of these wont play with it saying win/player needs to search for a missing file it makes it nice and easy as to which songs to go for...?

alternitivly i could copy the songs i like to a file and delete itones.win media player and any other file with musicin it??

once again thankyou

dont uninstall windows media player. Microsoft software should NEVER be removed (Thats a part of the operating system)

But yeah ~ your strategy is sound

thanks a loy
just switched on my desk top,,very very slow to start
im guessing a virus has crossed to my pc??from the usb stick...yet i scaned it with virus and malware and both said it was clear??
switched pc off rebooted and have let kaspersky look at it
so my usb is infected as well??
detections at 4 so far,,,but scanning very slowly

aliEnRIK

Your best bet would be to format the usb stick and THEN clean the computer

shaun40400
