[Closed] Removing brastia.exe

Post #1April 21, 2009, 7:42 PM UTC

I've gone completely haywire trying to get rid of this stupid trojan. Zonealarm, AVG and Avast can't find it, and whilst Windows Secuity Suite CONSTANTLY reminds me that I should follow its advice to get it removed, it's balloon doesn't lead me anywhere at all.

If one of you guys could show me how to remove it I'd be ETERNALLY grateful:

Due to the large numbers of HJT logs being posted, there are four things that you need to be aware of.

1) If you have already posted this log at another forum, you need to post here that you have done so and this topic will be closed.
Multiple posting not only ties up valuable resources, but could also result is some unpleasant side-effects for your system if you follow two sets of instructions at the same time.
If, during research, an identical log is identified at another forum, this thread will be closed.

2) If you don't post a meaningful reply to any of my posts within five days, this thread will be closed. Due to limited free time, I can only have so many open threads at any one time and if yours isn't active, somebody else's will be.
If, by omission, the thread hasn't be closed after five days and you post, it will just serve as a reminder to me to close it.
Please note that "I just dropped in to say Hi!" isn't a meaningful reply!

3) Malware removal is a tricky business, and malware writers don't tend to worry about the damage their creations do, so it is advisable to back-up all important files BEFORE we start. Although most cases have a successful conclusion, on occasion things don't go according to plan and it is better to be prepared for the worst.

4) Back-ups can get lost or damaged, so make two if the files are that important to you!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Run HJT and click on Open the Misc Tools section.

Click Open Uninstall Manager…
Click Save list… and save it to your Desktop.
Copy and paste the file uninstall_list.txt into your next reply.

Hi, thanks for the reply This is the first and only site I've posted on asking for help. Also, I realise that there is definately a risk of messing up my computer; unfortunately I've tried everything else I could do save for formatting. I've got all of my important files backed up.

You'll need to post the uninstall list as asked for before we can continue.
