First, go to Windows\System32 and move scvhost.dll to your desktop. You need to delete this file, but it is "in use" so you can't. If you are worried about doing this, just check the properties of that file and you will find it was created recently, on the day of infection.



You can use

Google is your friend (well, in this case Yahoo! search )

If you are running Win XP, you could go back to a previous restore point in the System applet in Control Panel.



Edited: sorry, that info above I just posted is not correct... here's the correct way from MS:



1. Log on to Windows as Administrator.

2. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Restore. System Restore starts.

3. On the Welcome to System Restore page, click Restore my computer to an earlier time (if it is not already selected), and then click Next.

4. On the Select a Restore Point page, click the most recent system checkpoint in the On this list, click a restore point list, and then click Next. A System Restore message may appear that lists configuration changes that System Restore will make. Click OK.

5. On the Confirm Restore Point Selection page, click Next. System Restore restores the previous Windows XP configuration, and then restarts the computer.

6. Log on to the computer as Administrator. The System Restore Restoration Complete page appears.

7. Click OK.
