my pc showing such msg , to remove such msg / virus what is the proven antivirus ?
 

i think it is a adware... what does it show when u click the balloon... is it asking u to download some antivirus software??????

i mean does it ask u to download a specific antivirus......
 

no !

but give frequent msgs

and some time it will automatically open the internet exp

i need urgent help !,

my system may damage !!!!!!
 

that is what i'm asking.... when it opens internet exp automatically what is it asking u to do????
 

yes !

msg shows like that your .exe will get damage so download this ,that

ask to download spyware to protect your pc like that
 

with which software ????????????

right now , avast is handling pc
 

it is a adware only.... what version of windows r u using????

now open taskmanager and see processes.... printscreen taskmanager processes and post here....

if u see a unfamiliar process then right click it and go to the particular process file location and post the file location here....
 

windows2000 ,

here is the task manger print screen

 

icthis.exe and icmntr.exe are the processes related to the adware... i had a similar problem before.... end process those two processes....

now open registry editor by typing regedit in cmd mode... after that press Ctrl+F so that find window opens... then search for icthis and delete all those registry entries which have that keyword or value... do the same for icmntr....

search and find the file location of icthis and icmntr... both would have the exe file and a dll with them... the exe file and dll cannot be deleted without deleting the registry entries....

get back to me after you do this... also printscreen the taskmanager after this....
 

i am trying to doing what you say !

a new msg come

 

delete the registry entries and then try end process.... because it enters values in the registry such that it cannot be ended.... so only i'm asking u to delete the registry entries....

Added after 4 minutes:

one important thing.... adware just wants to make u buy a particular antispam or antispy software.... it is done by programmers of that particular antispam or antispy software and they usually have connections with porn sites or illegal sites through sponsor and they send adware to our system whenever we access those sites....

adware isnt that dangerous.... it will just torture us into buying that particular antispam or antispy....
 

i deleted the regis but , in task manager it will come again so not able to delete from there location can i use the win98 for deleting !

wait i will goto through 98 !!!!!!

Added after 3 minutes:


will this come from the email file ?, early mozila give me some waring about sam msg
 

dude isfmntr and isfmm are also adware only.... delete the registry entries corresponding to them also...
 

all that it needs a little click of a link to download and install the adware.... for me kaspersky didnt detect the virus... i'm using windows vista and windows defender in it pointed out a trojan process and then i used task manager find this particular adware you are talking about..... then i used the above steps to counteract the adware....
 

winodows2000 which is the only problem
no firewall at all (u can say)

use mcafee trial version of

Antivirus,Firewall,SpyWare,Privacy

i m using McAfee from last 4 years and got 100% results
 

every antivirus has its own loopholes.... it is all just the difference in terms of coding... even there are performance difference in between antiviruses.... if you use a very complex antivirus then your system would be slow....
