Well I have tried all the manual and auto instructions but this simply returns after being switched of for approx 20 min .......Can anyone assist. :(

Regards
Stu
 
Are you referring to this one:


Did you follow all the directions there? Define what you mean when you say it returns? Are you saying a virus alert pops up? If so when does it pop up and what folder is the virus detected in? What operating system? You need to give us more info on the problem.
 
Thks Kento for the reply:
Im operating Win98 SE. Yes I have followed the instructions on your link. On start up my screen will go blank just as the start menu finishes loading,this requires a restart,when this is complete a virus warning appears and guess what, yes you got it, I-Worm.Opas.A detected and there it is in C:\windows\scrsvr.exe.
The annoying thing this does not happen everytime but seems to be random.At the time I have no network connection or internet connection running. The other telltale sign is that the dialup connection window opens automatically at the end of startup?. :( . I have spent days now trying to track down where this is on my drive,it has to be under a different name but is not detected.

Cheers
Stu
 
Are you ever on a network? You could be getting re-infected from it or from an infected email. Let's see what you have running. Remove the virus again then go to the link and download Startlog.com into any folder then doubleclick on it and run it. It'll create 2 text files on your desktop. Copy and paste the results of just Startlog (not the stubpaths file) to your reply here. If you don't know how to copy and paste, when the Startlog appears at the top click edit--select all--edit--copy--then come here and right click in your reply window and select paste or click edit then paste at the top of your browser.

 
Hi, I have the same problem as Stu - this is long file - is this OK for you to look at?
