Morning people. I've installed Win2K to my other older computer, which i rebuilt. Everything works perfect except that even if i had proper firewall and antivirus-software installed - some virus got in.
I have found very little info about this virus, google seems to know basicly nothing about it. Here's some info:
Path: /system32/symon.exe
Here it is, atleast it seems that way. But you can't see it, not even as hidden file. Can't terminate the process. It eats 100% of the CPU.
I've ran anti-virus and spyware -software, but found nothing. It's running but i can't do anything to close it down.
Here's some info i found last night: Click
Seems like it's mostly messing with registry.
Anyway, if there's someone who've had this problem, please tell me how to get rid of it.
