Im So Sick Of It

Tom, when you did your backup b4 you formatted.... did you kill the virus first? If not, then you backed up the virus too and just reinstalled it.... if that's the case, then guess what..... you gotta make SURE your system is clean first, then back it all up, and go through it again..... but before you do that..... just kill the thing first and see if it'll solve the issue.

I found this in about 2 seconds using Google. It looks like it has something to do with Kazaa....


For those of you who have used Kazaa, this might interest you. An uninstall does not remove all the components that Brilliant have installed on your system. Here are some instructions to clean this off your system totally:

Do a file search for bde*.* in your Windows system directory. Search and destroy the following:

c:\Windows\BDE (the folder and everything in it)
c:\Windows\Temp\Brilliant (the folder and everything in it)
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdedata2.dll
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdedownloader.dll
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdefdi.dll
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdeinsta2.dll
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdeinstall.exe
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdesecureinstall.cab
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdesecureinstall.exe
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdeverify.dll
c:\Windows\SYSTEM\bdeverify.exe

Now fire up Regedit and delete the following trails:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.b3ds
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\b3ds_auto_file
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BDESmartInstaller.BDESmartInstal ler
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BDESmartInstaller.BDESmartInstal ler.1
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{67925165-C4B6-11D2-B9C6-0000E84F59A6}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{82FC7881-AACC-11D2-B9C6-0000E842E40A}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Brilliant Digital Entertainment
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Zupdate

Additionally, the B3D Projector configures itself to update silently at system startup. To remove this (yes, not even this is removed at uninstall), delete the b3dUpdate value at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software \Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

Good luck,

twistyneck

here is how you do it ...

It's downloaded through Kazaa

Good Luck

Damnit, I was about to post the same damn thing but twistyneck beat me to it

also, you need to KNOW the virus first..... alot of things depend on what the virus does. For instance, the Monkey B virus cannot be eliminated simply by formatting because it infects and rewrites the master boot record. You gotta nuke the system right down to the nuts and bolts. It's the only damn way to get rid of it. I once had to clean an entire office of Monkey B..... it took fucking forever.

So, before you do anything else.... identify exactly what's going on and what you have, and then know your virus.... read up on everything about it from McAfee or Norton.... and follow their recommendations on how to kill it. If it's in your MBR, you're fucked.

you can also use Ad Aware free software to remove any Spyware on your computer

Is that a virus or some sort of Kazaa installed spyware?

It comes up on this thread about Kazaa:

sounds like spyware

I fucking hate the fucking viri that modify the registry so that you can only execute program with the virus installed. Once you remove the virus and forget to edit the registry, you can't do SHIT. NOTHING. NADA.

That's why I keep Norton Antivirus updated daily and backup all my shit weekly....

awe thank you thank you thank you yea I thought i killed it damn I deleted it through macafee as soon as my resources come back to life I will do as twistynecksuggested and IM GOING TO KILL ONE BLK SOB lol no its anot a raciest thing he my best friend/roomate but that sob keeps installing this kazza bullshit this time im going to show him this fucking thread and tell him If he happens one more time on my business computer I will password lock it for fucking ever.


Thank you so much guys I knew if anyone would know this it would be you guys ARGH IM like behind ONCE again in my fucking work just as I was getting a head of it damnit Another night without sleep argh@#$

For all you virus making cock suckers I HOPE THE BIGGEST UGLIEST MAN WITH A 10 FOOT DICK ANAL RAPES YOU@#$

Well that explains why my icons kept chaging to weird shit and why non of IE would accecpt cookies. argh I even use ad ware but before i just delete everything i fucking have even backups I will try what twistyneck <preys it works>

If master boot record gets infected, can't you just start in dos mode and rewrite the boot record with fdisk?

HOLY shit now its infected my D: drive
bdesecureinstall
bdesecureinstall
BDECache
bde2125.TMP
bde2186.TMP

I did the find bde*.* on both drives and that is waht I got errrr
just deleted them AGAIN now to the regedit god that scares me I hate messing with that shit

i think you can

awe good idea once im done with the reg file ill just boot up my win98 boot up disk and do umm err fdisk /mbr right?

ARGH Im looking at the reg edit cant find shit I went to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software \Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

and there are 3 run looked in all 3 of them and they aint there any one know of anything else I can do ?

At this point I would install comet cursor and gator.

eh? why would you do this? So this is spyware not a real virus then why the hell is it repurducing its self using up all my resources lages the hell out of my puter and makes my damn icons change to weird shit. The icons change back once i reboot

SON OF a mothers WHORE im rescanning my back ups and damn if it isnt in there. When I was installing the backup i scaned them and it didnt find it now it finds it wtf

ok its says it is deleted again now im going to shut down and re build the mbr just hope i can get back online i deleted alot of shit <shivers from being so pissed>

Just messin' with you a bit. Hell, I don't know what it is, I only know what Google found.

MAN holy fucking christ ok in my back ground this is running rulaunch when i made a new mbr and rebooted it took forever but the macafee started before anything else and cleaned 7 fucking files it went so damn fast i didnt see what they were called what do I do now HAS anyone gone thru this bullshit if so PLEASE you get this fucking fixed for me I will build you a few free fucking galleries!
