Rivarts.A problem.

Hello all,
Have not been on here for a long time now lol, which is a good sign seing that my computer has been running fine till now. Just did a scan revealing that i have a backdoor virus, (Rivarts.A) Microsoft Anti spywhere does pick this up and removes it but it always seems to return after i restart the computer. Anyway round this bugger... Cheers

Do you run any other anti malware programs, in particular Trojan Hunter?

If so this may be a false positive.

Read this thread -

Hope this helps.

Thanks Dangles for the info, It does put me more at ease knowing that this Trojan might be a false positive but i still cannot be 100% that i'm in the clear.

I to have ran Adaware, Panda Scan and spywhere blaster both have found nothing. Just to keep it safe I have McAfee firewall and Norman virus control installed on my computer so it does seem kind of strange.

Maby Microsoft could solve this problem via their next update.

Thanks again.

Post a Hijack this log and one of the people on this site will analyse it and see what is wrong. Id also say that this topic should have gone under the Microsoft windows forum for future reference.

Here you go, apologies for posting under the wrong heading...

Problem solved,
The recent update from microsoft has fixed the problem, it was an error on their behalf so everything seems to be in order.

Thanks everyone for your help.
