well it doesn’t work so easily as is displayed.

Jade says, January 21st, 2008   

You should look inside autoexec.inf to check the name of the other file is loaded in order to remove it as well as in the registry entries

And also check all the usb drives, as the virus uses them to spread itself. Dont open the usb drive, just explore it, to avoid autorun.inf to execute it again (maybe pressing shif while you insert the usb may help)

hey i did the second tip but HIJACK THIS couldnt find HKCU\..\Run: [amva] C:\WINDOWS\system32\amvo.exe…in my computer..can u plz help…..

Nekhrun says, January 23rd, 2008   

found the solution, a combination of first and second works. :)

First, these files are not visible in windows explorer. Open command prompt, jump to the drive and run command dir /ah to view the hidden files. eg:

cd d:
dir /ah

you may see files like:
autorun.inf
d.com
and some other files

now do the following:

1. run Hijackthis tool and fix the amvo.exe file as suggested in second method (step 1-4).

2. In Start -> Run, enter “msconfig.sys”, and unchek the amvo.exe file from the startup list. It might be present there and restart pc.

2. after restart, DO NOT open/double click on any drive. Run the hijackthis tool again to ensure the amvo.exe file is not in the list. Now, execute the foll commands in command propmt:

cd c:\windows\system32
attrib -r -h -s amvo.exe
del amvo.exe
attrib -r -h -s avmo0.dll
del amvo0.dll
attrib -r -h -s avmo1.dll
del amvo1.dll

now, jump to each drive and run these commands:

attrib -r -h -s autorun.inf
del autorun.inf
attrib -r -h -s d.com
del d.com

for each extra hidden file, run the above commands with filename replaced.

When all the files are deleted, restart the machine, and again check with hijackthis tool.

Good luck.

Hi,
I have removes all the autorun.inf files from my system, I did not find any amvo.exe or such dlls. it says file not found. I have solved problem of drive opening but still I am not able see hidden file. when i try to folder options >> check the option show hidden files and folders. Also un-check the option Hide protected operating system files (This will give a warning message, confirm by pressing yes button). After this click Ok, still I got the problem to see hidden files….
Pls give suggestion for this problem.

KK

nekhrun says, January 23rd, 2008   

@KK

Did you try the DOS way??
Open command prompt, jump to the drive and run command dir /ah to view the hidden files. eg:

cd d:
dir /ah

let me know if you still can’t see the files.

Frame says, January 24th, 2008   

Hey guys,

I removed all the files indicated above. But I am still unable to enable “show hidden files”. And also, there is someting wrong with the system, I can’t install a program, there is always an error message.

Does anyone how to find the folder options congiguraiton file (*.ini or something). Maybe that could help me to enable the hidden files.

Thanks.

Neero says, January 27th, 2008   

Man, Nekhrun’s method is right for only the autorun problem. But nothing happend with the HIDDEN FILE prblem. In the dos mode the hidden files are available, but in explorer the same problem. What to do with that. But obeously a big thanks to Nekhrun to atlest 1 solution. Cheers

mygif
Nekhrun says, January 29th, 2008   

@Neero

yes you are right. i have deleted all the virus files, but i am still having the hidden file/folder problem and still looking for the solution. let me know if you find any solution.

Chris says, January 29th, 2008   

1. Go to your Start menu, click on Run and open up your Registry Editor by typing: regedit
2. Once there go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folde r\Hidden\SHOWALL
3. Double click the value called CheckedValue, and modify its data value (DWORD Value) to 1 (0×00000001)

Let me know if it works :)

mygif
Chris says, January 29th, 2008   

Almost forgot….step 4

4. Go back to folder options (Tools>>>FOlder options>>>Click View Tab>>>Click Show Hidden files and folders>>>and OK)

And you win then have your HIdden files back! ;)

another_way says, February 3rd, 2008   

There is another way if it’s too difficult for you, use this patch, download the file, extract and start, just click “patcher” and that’s all.

but files avmo0.dll and avmo1.dll not found
also file d.com not found
now i persist problem with opening the partitions
when i double click the partition it says choose the program you want to use to open this file.
How do i fix this?

mygif
another_way says, February 7th, 2008   

The file autorun.inf is still in your partition,

Download the patch http://www.net-studio.org/application/autorun-av.php
Put it in your desktop
Restart your pc in safe mode
Unrar the patch and open it
Click Patcher

—————
Another way :
Restart in safe mode
Go to start button
Select Run and enter cmd then OK
You are now in command prompt

tape and validate for each line

c:
cd\
attrib -s -h -r autorun.inf
del autorun.inf

do it for each partition you have
ex for d:

d:
cd\
attrib -s -h -r autorun.inf
del autorun.inf

etc…

Restart you pc

kavi says, February 13th, 2008   

Hallo, Experts.
my pc was infected by AMVO.EXE and was harrasing a lot, on Google i search solutions, i got also and i gone through it’s instruction also to remove this worm, but it was not effecting, the file was generating again and again,
but when i found trouble fixers,and specially the VB Script given in website of Trouble Fixers, as soon as i run it the Worm Amvo.exe become disappear,
you people are really Experts and should all must be given award. Please do continue help the pople like us who are not much aware with deep of computers, just we are operating.
and one more thing, you experts are required to use very very lucid language, so layman like us can understand, i:e: here in your website you’v mention TYPE ATTRIB -R -H -S, this line is not highlited when others all line which we have to type is highlited, so we may confuse that what is ATTRIB and who to write this -R-H-S..? etc. so my huble request to make it very easy, lucid and understable.
thank u very much.

Saurabh Sarin says, February 18th, 2008   

Thank you so much for providing the solution to this unique virus. i had lost the hope of recovering my OS n thought only option which is left is to reinstall but u saved my time n effort.

Actually, first of all i tried ur VB script methood (bcoz that seemed to be the most simple one), but still it was d same, then i tried the 1st method, still d same, in the end i tried the 2nd method still it was d same. finally i restarted then applied this step 5 of 2nd option again [Open my computer and go to folder options >> check the option show hidden files and folders. Also un-check the option Hide protected operating system files (This will give a warning message, confirm by pressing yes button). After this click Ok.]
and then deleted the files amvo.dll and amvo1.dll from
D:windows/system32 folder.last

Atlast i got my healthy OS again.

i am so grateful to u, my gratitute is endless. . .

Stella says, February 19th, 2008   

thanks a lot!! I’m very happy to have found this website to fix this virus. The first 2 methods didn’t work for me but the script did the job!! I was about to do a format and clean install of my OS when I found this website to get rid of the virus. Thanks!

mygif
Tope says, February 20th, 2008   

I spent the whole day tying to fix this virus and eventually did it manually thanks to the clues i got from this site as well as some others. Its not that the manual method doesn’t work but that the names of the files created by the virus may differ. For example, the .exe file on mine was kavo.exe, not amvo.exe and the .com file was h2.com, not d.com or ntdelect.com. Of course, if you’re not too “good” at computers, removing it manually may prove difficult or impossible so its a great thing the scripts and patches exist. This was the worst virus that infected my system yet and several antivirus programs don’t even detect it.
You guys are doing a great job!

If you are feel that you remove all virus then beware.
because amvo.exe is a similar avpo.exe and oufddh.exe two more files.You should also check avpo0.dll,avpo1.dll in
c:\windows\system32\.
try above method to remove this files

O/ all. Just an extra note. I had the same symptoms but my files were named CKVO.exe, CKVO1.dll, MP.cmd, 0gjn3yw.exe and kqyg5uy.dll in the temp folders of all the users.

Could find any leads on any of the AV sites.

Your method worked brilliantly! just check your Documents and Settings\?User?\local settings\temp folder for hidden files using the dir /ah option. There might be some other fishy files in there!

THANKS!
