Solved Should I Format All Of My Drives?

  • 2

So I’m being infected by a trojan “Project1” or TJprojMain.exe . The thing here is it infects all of my files. Every .exe when I click on Details it always shows up the product name “Project1” and Original Filename “TJprojMain.exe”. Can I keep all the .rar and pictures, musics…? (Of course not include all of those .exe files) . Should I format all of my drives? (maybe just 2, I’ll put all backup things on one drive)

  1. Either way, it will take a fair bit of time. One scanner will not be enough.

    Here is where I would start.

    Run ESET Online Scanner. Copy and Paste the contents of the log in your reply please. This scan may take a very long while, so please be patient. Maybe start it before going to work or bed.
    Make sure these options are checked/ticked in Advanced settings.

    Remove found threats, Scan archives, Scan for potentially unsafe applications, Enable Anti-Stealth technology.

    If your comp is unbootable, or won’t let you download, you will have to download ESET from a good computer, put it on a flash/thumb/pen/usb drive & run it from there.

    My ESET product detected a threat—what should I do?
    http://support.eset.com/kb117/
    Once onto a machine, malware can disable antivirus programs, prevent antimalware programs from downloading updates, or prevent a user from running antivirus scans or installing new antivirus software or malware removal tools. At this point even though you are aware the computer is infected, removal is very difficult.
    5: Why does the ESET Online Scanner run slowly on my computer?
    http://support.eset.com/kb405/?view…
    If you have other antivirus, antispyware or anti-malware programs running on your computer, they may intercept the scan being performed by the ESET Online Scanner and hinder performance. You may wish to disable the real-time protection components of your other security software before running the ESET Online Scanner. Remember to turn them back on after you are finished.
    17: How can I view the log file from ESET Online Scanner?
    http://support.eset.com/kb405/?view…
    The ESET Online Scanner saves a log file after running, which can be examined or sent in to ESET for further analysis. The path to the log file is “C:\Program Files\ESET\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt” (on 64-bit systems this directory will be “C:\Program Files (x86)\ESET\Esetonlinescanner\log.txt”). You can view this file by navigating to the directory and double-clicking it in Windows Explorer, or by copying and pasting the path specification above (including the quotation marks) into the Start > Run dialog box from the Start Menu on the Desktop.
    If no threats are found, you will simply see an information window that no threats were found.
