How to remove the IMProfile.net virus

support

A new virus labelled a variant of the Win32/Spy.VB.LO trojan by NOD32 has been spreading via Windows Live Messenger over the past couple of weeks, one of the messages it typically sends contains the recipients e-mail address, looking something like this:

» rofl @ you, http://improfile.net/members.php?msn=example@example.com

The Web site has been shutdown to stop it from spreading. The DNS is set to loopback (127.0.0.1) and “Closed for Fraud” is in the whois information.

Kelvin has created a tool called impFix to remove the virus, so give it a try if you believe to be infected with this pest.
