I was really pissed off today because of this Funny UST scandal AVI virus that keeps pestering me everytime I send messages via yahoo messenger. I was really shocked when I saw the cursor automatically buzzing my YM buddies and sending messages that say “tropen dis ganda nakakatawa”. Worse, my current status message even displayed this: “sino gusto funny ust scandal pm nio ko”.
I tried to delete all funny ust scandal icons in my PC. I even tried to uninstall my yahoo messenger and reinstalled it again but the Funny UST Scandal AVI Virus keeps coming back. Thankfully, I was able to download the Funny UST Scandal Avi.Exe Remover, a Funny UST Scandal Virus Removal Tool I have learned from techpinoy.blogspot.com.
If you want to remove that %$##@@@@!!!! Funny UST scandal virus in your PC, just
- download the Funny UST Scandal Avi.Exe Remover zip.
- Double click remover.exe and
- click on the “patayin ang tangahing virus button”.
This will automatically eliminate the Funny UST scandal AVI virus from your PC.

I can’t remember seeing “funny names” or things like that when I got the virus. You can just delete them anyway.

its better also to re-format your whole system or use a software that also fixes your system files and softwares…
while the virus is in your PC, it still react as a virus that can destroy all files and specially on to other softwares.

I am very happy that I found Funny Scandal remover, it stopped the active virus files, but only removed the active exe files, I had to remove all Funny Scandal.exe files and hidden autorun files on all drives and partitions, but that’s ok with me, as long as I got rid of that
Remember to empty recycle bin too.
Very nice little program – Well done guys

Huh……..y u guys r looking for antivirus for such a low risk virus?????You urself can clean it from ur computer…I took only 2 days to study abt that virus and to remove it from mine …..If my computer had a virus i wont go looking for antivirus…..i m happy to play on it……I ll tell u abt that.
The main thing of this virus is that …
1) it edits the registry in system restore…So when ever u try to delete the virus, it restores….
2) when u try to open command prompt..It will go hidden…so u cant delete using that….
Now if u r going to safe mode with command prompt u can delete it….even if u do that….After restarting u ll find that virus still exist.. ..This is becoz the main file of the virus is controlling the regestry and doing the rest…so u need to find the main file….Its in prefetch folder….C:\windows\prefetch
the file name is xmss.exe..Delete it…if u cant delete it on normal mode..Just restart…
– press F8
– select safe mode with command prompt..
U ll go to safe mode
– select start then RUN
– type cmd
then u ll see command prompt
ther u need some commands…Note down
By default u ll be in c:\documents and settings.u need to come to c:> for that u need to type cd..(note that cd and two dots is for exiting from a folder).Then come to c:\ ther u need to go to prefetch folder.For that u type cd windows then type cd prefetch(note that “cd foldername” is for entering the folder)when u reach ther simply type dir there u find the list of files..If the virus files r in hidden mode or read only mode.. Type attrib -s -r -h -a( this will remove the read only property and can delete virus files)
for deleting type del “filename”(for ease of use type first letters of filename and press tab –eg: type del and type xms then type tab).delete all files that u see xmss.exe —then go to windows folder. by typing cd..then type dir/a:h (for finding the hidden files) the as said before type attrib command and delete files…Then go to each drives in ur computer and delete files..Dont forget to delete every files…Got that???..U can use this methods for almost all low risk virus..Go guys…Fight against virus…Find ur own methods instead of using antivirus…Now i m collecting codes of virus..Means before deleting the virus just drag the virus into note pad..Then save it as text..It will not affect ur computer coz its disabled…if U guys got any virus drag it to ur notepad save it as text and sent to me…Lemme collect some virus lol…
sent me feed back, whether this notes helps u…..My email id is spikerboys@yahoo.com……..
By ur loving friend spikerboys

i ll tell u for deleting the virus manually..Put me a mail to spikerboys@yahoo.com
