How to remove a game from my pc?

How to remove self-sending virus to my PC

• I have 3 PC in network. They run Outlook 5.0 and 6.0. One of them (I assume) sends a virus to itself via email. Since the 3 are networked, they all get them. It does not appear in the sent box that I know of. My user name is pendleto and that is how they appear as to from where they originated. When I right click to look at their properties, it is my email address.They all come with a "paper clip" that there is an attachment. The subject lines are different, but by now (I have weeks seeing them) are the same, though many different. A special humour game Let's be friends How are you Spice girls' vocal concert to name 4 examples. The attachments are: picacu.exe (89.6 KB) top[1].scr (95.6KB) top[1].jpg (15.2KB) top[1].pif(92.9KB) top[1].jpg (15.2KB) top[1].scr(91.4) top[1].jpg (15.2KB) Those are 4 recent examples. What do I do to find and remove this virus? I have McAfee antivirus on all 3 PC's and have done various scans for viruses but this one hangs on. Thanks. John

• Answer:

  Hello pendelton, Sounds like you have the pesky KLEZ worm. This is a mass email worm that spreads through email and is considered destructive. Rest assured there are a few ways to remove this virus. The first that I recommend involves downloading the KLEZ removal tool from Symantec. It removes all variants of the worm, and innoculates files to prevent re-infection. You can download this free removal tool below : KLEZ Removal tool from Symantec.com http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.klez.removal.tool.html Secondly, if you do not want to download the file, you can go to TrendMicro for a free online virus scan. It does require registration, but it is free. You can view this option here: TrendMicro HouseCall Virus Scan http://housecall.trendmicro.com I do not personally recommend a manual removal of this worm. There are too many variants of it, and we are sure to miss something critical. I didn't use a search strategy to find these sources, as I use them on a continual basis. In the future should you get a wierd feeling about an attachment, you can simply type the name of the attachment into Google, and see if there are bad things associated with it, such as a virus. I hope this answers your question. If you find for some reason that the KLEZ worm was not the cause, please ask for clarification before rating this answer, and I would be glad to be of further assistance. Thanks for the question!
