Need steps for getting rid of SystemDefender.exe

[Trotter]

Not on my computer, though. Been working an a co-workers computer. His daughter had picked up some nasty stuff downloading crap. I had gotten all of it but troj_dropper.euo and SystemDefender (he uses Panda... yeah, I know).

Anyway, I think I have gotten the trojan by using TrendMicro.Housecall and BitDefender's online scan. But SystemDefender is a royal pain! I have nixed everything I can find, no scan is pulling it up, but it keeps on opening up IE every once in a while, pointing to its site.

I have put in several hours on this one, mainly running scans. It is running a 2.53 Celly, so you can't multi-task while scanning.

Anyway, I am open to some steps to get this thing off of here, once and for all.

Can you post a log?

[Trotter]

I will give him directions and have him email one to me to post. I started to do it tonight while I was there, but the missus was calling me to remind me that I needed to be coming home... >.<

[Osiris]

Well hurry up!

[Trotter]

OK, got the file(s).

Can you have him install AVG?


Here is the System Defender Removal Guide

How To Remove Systemdefender (removal Instructions)

[Trotter]

Will AVG play nice with Panda? I think he is considering moving to TrendMicro, but is still on Panda for now.

[Saxon]

Tried malware bytes? I use that to shift stubborn unwelcome guests.

[Osiris]

Never used the 2 but if he is worried about it, just disable Panda for now.
