    thanx,

    Jim

    By Jim Allen on Dec 11, 2007

  6. Great Guide, Seems easy to follow and nice use of the SmithfraudFix tool, I just recommended it to a friend who has the virus.

    By Dan on Dec 11, 2007

  7. You guys saved my butt !! I have been working on this for three days now, pulling out what little hair I have, downloading this and that thru several sleepless nights. I deleted the windivx.dll thru the safe mode and it all came to an end.

    Thanks again,
    Phil

  10. Thank you very much..really helped me a lot..
    just go safe mode and remove windivx.dll..done

    By naknak on Dec 11, 2007

  11. Wow this worked great…windivx.dll. Rather than reboot to safe mode though I used Unlocker:

    http ://www.download.com/Unlocker/3000-2248-10493998.html

    It removes the locking handle a program may have on a file…it will also delete the file in question if no locking handle is found. I did reboot afterwards so the windivx.dll would be unloaded from memory.

    By Rick on Dec 11, 2007

  12. Like Jim and Shane, i can not find a program “Trojan.Win32.Obfuscated.gx” in the “ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS” componant. Could someone help me to remove it from my computer, please?
    Thanks.

    By guigui on Dec 11, 2007

    By DaNyElL on Dec 12, 2007

  15. After looking for everything listed in the removal process, the ONLY thing I had on my system was the windivx.dll file.
    Once that was removed, everything was back to normal.
    THANK YOU!!!

  27. my search on the computer can’t find windivx.dll….
    my mom’s gonna killll me.
    somebody help!!!

    By George on Dec 14, 2007

  28. I deleted windivx.dll and the IE Defender folder and contents in Safe Mode. I searched for half-a-dozen of the registry entries and found none. Since it took up to five minutes each, I just decided to delete windivx. Rebooted computer, and the Trojan appears to be gone. Oh, yeah, I also emptied the Trash Bin. Thank you!!! By the way, since IE was the one busted, I searched and found this site using Google via Firefox. Good thing to have two browsers available.

    By Michael Pool on Dec 14, 2007

  29. how can i find the file windivx.dll? Like i said, the regular Start > Search doesn’t work…

    By George on Dec 14, 2007

  30. Thanks Giant Help!!!

    By Dan on Dec 15, 2007

  31. Small problem. I followed all the steps listed. I found none of the .dll files listed above nor any of the entries in registry. Still get the pop-up ad though. Do you think the sleeze that advertises this way got smarter? Any suggestions?

    By Bob on Dec 16, 2007

  32. Thanks, your instructions were great, but I didn’t have any of those files you mentioned. The file that got rid of the pop up for me was c:\windows\pmspl.dll. Thanks!!

    By Lacy on Dec 16, 2007
