    A couple of days ago Symantec antivirus kept finding Zero Access Trojans that it appeared to be unable to delete completely and continued asking me to reboot after each virus scan. The first day I discovered the virus, Antivirus sd it was version5, the very next day antivirus scan said it was Trojan.zeroAccess!inf6. This virus is truly beginning to hose my machine. My primary issues though are that it has done a DOS attack, I think on my home network denying me both LAN & Wireless internet access. So as I currently type this I am using a different computer. Another main issue is that somehow the virus seems to be blocking some of my primary system files/folders (one of them is C:\Documents and Settings) access. I also have traced the main system file path that antivirus indicates the virus to reside at, and have tried deleting it but get an error saying I don't have the permissions to remove.

    I did refer to the following post link but did not apply steps given since my case is somewhat different-->http://www.windowsbbs.com/malware-v...an-zero-access-found-mcafee-can-you-help.html

    **Any help with this irritating issue would be greatly appreciated. I have print screenshots of these issues that I can send for those interested in taking a further look to help.

    Welcome to the boards.

    Each and every PC is different.

    Suggest that you go to the Malware and post what is asked there. Broni is very good at what he does.
