Alright for you tech guys… Have any of you come in contact with “Trojan.Win32.Pakes” This is the most intrusive little fucker I’ve ever dealt with. First off I want to know what the asshole did to get this thing because I would think you would really have to try to get something like this. It had charecteristics almost like the MSBlaster virus a few years back. When booting vista normaly, a “Vista has encountered a problem and will restart automaticly in one minute” my boss thought it was a hardware issue as no previous virus issues have been a problem with this guy, he coudlent figurte it out and gave it to me. Only way to boot was in safe mode, any real time virus/malware scanner i had would close out and become inacessible including combo fix which has been immune to something like this I had before. Every boot time scanner I had at the time wasnt detecting a damn thing and well basicly I was in a hole. Found an F-Secure disk i burried in the bottom of my desk and gave that a shot and finaly after 6 hours of scanning it got rid of the little fucker. Anyways just wanted to see if you guys have gotten anything like this… ---
