Fix Virtumonde.dll Virus on Windows Vista

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

A friend of mine, brought his computer home because his machine needed a repair.
After installing Spybot S&D and checking the machine for SpyWare.
The program found like 26 spyware / adware infections. After fixing them,
I decided to run once again the program just to assure myself that the infections has been properly removed.
After scanning his hard drive a second time with SpyBot S&D, just one infection
was found though I have to admit a really tough one!
The questionable spyware found was called virtumonded.ll
I followed instructions from fixvirtumondedll.com to remove the cursed spyware.

There are basicly two major alternatives in removing virtumonde.dll in a
quick way.

1. Buy or find cracked version of Spyware Doctor
2. Or use SuperAntiSpyware

I decided to use SuperAntiSpyware, because it’s a freeware.
After installing it and running a test on the Windows Vista system,
happily It found and removed a dozen of malicious spyware.
However I decided to check the system afterwards with Spyware Doctor
cause I wanted to be certain that all the Spyware on the system is removed.
Once again checking the Fujistu Siemens notebook with Spyware Doctor
it rendered that some more 40 pieces of spyware was left undetected
by SuperAntiSpyware.
After removing the security threads lastly with Spyware Doctor, now the
system is perfectly clear.
