I have three systems that have encountered a new varation of the Gaobot virus. Its called Penis.exe. Has anyone else faced this same virus?? I was able to find the files manually and delete them plus the changes in the registry keys. However one system since removing is having an extreme slowness issue. When booting up it takes approx 30 mins to get to your desktop and then anything you do open a program etc takes another 10 mins or longers to work. Any ideas or suggestion on what I am missing??
