Mike Ely, TIS Print-Friendly Version So, you got the bug, eh? Fortunately, it doesn't do any real damage (other than sending copies of itself to all your friends - how embarrassing), and it's very easy to remove. I have written step-by-step instructions for all the vulnerable versions of Windows. Although this document is long, the steps for your particular version of Windows is not. Just pay attention, take things a step at a time and BE PATIENT. Here's how to rid your computer of the bug forever: 1) Start your computer in Safe Mode If your computer runs Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows ME: Restart your computer. As the computer starts up, hold down the "Control" (CTRL) key. You will be presented with a menu. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to highlight Safe Mode and press Enter (or Return). If your computer runs Windows 2000 or XP: Restart your computer. When you see the black screen with the progress bar on the bottom, press the F8 key. A menu will appear. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to highlight Safe Mode, and press Enter (or Return). When prompted, log in as the Administrator. All Windows versions: After following the instructions above, your computer will load. A window will appear, informing you that Windows is running in Safe Mode, and the words "Safe Mode" will appear on all four corners of the screen. If this is not the case, your computer is NOT running in Safe Mode. You will need to restart your computer and follow the instructions for your computer again. 2) Remove the bug The virus exists in two different directories as a total of three files. Once again, the location of some of these files depends on which version of Windows you were using. For tech-savvy users, the path to the virus is: * Start MenuProgramsStartupsetup.exe * %WinDir%status.ini * %WinDir%Win64.ini For everyone else, here's how to find and delete the virus. If your computer runs Windows 95 or Windows 98: Double-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop. Double click on the C drive. Double click on Windows. Scroll down. The virus files in this folder are called status.ini and Win64.ini. Delete both of these files and empty the Recycle bin (to do this, right-click on the Recycle Bin and select Empty Recycle Bin. Next, double-click on the folder icon that says All Users. Double-click on the folder icon that says Start Menu. Double-click on the folder icon that says Startup. The virus file is called setup.exe.

Go to your Start Menu, choose Windows Update, click on the link to Update My Computer, and install all the Critical Updates which you are offered. Restart your computer and do this again. You may need to do this three of four times before there are no more Critical Updates. Please do so - your computer will remain vulnerable to viruses until this has completed.
