VBOUNCER INFECTION
I had to go into regedit ( start- run- type regedit- hit ok-(DO NOT DELETE ANY THING
OTHER THAN VBOUNCER OR VIRTUAL BOUNCER FILES!)) and run a search on vbouncer and
virtual bouncer and delete out all files and folders also do the same with your file
search on your desktop for files and folders
Hello I to got the Vbouncer earlier today when I was surfing for a xbox walk-through
page for unreal tournament (domination).. When I 1st got to the sight I saw a macro
run that turned my browser security to the lowest setting as I was trying to figure
that one out the program installed itself on my PC with out being told to-do so.
I am sure this is why the macro is run to lower your security settings 1st so I
did what I felt was best and turned off my computer. All this happened with in a
about a minuets time. When I turned the PC back on I found that I was to late it
had already spread into my locals, desktop to start-up and a few different places
in my registry. I can say I went with regedit and search on files and folders also
msconfiged it out!! I can tell you it did all this right along my virus and firewall
software from Mcafee… Were it spread and how it spread makes me personally believe
this is worse than a virus!
