Malware is becoming much more intelligent in the way that it infects users computers.
In many cases new rogue programs are downloaded and the Hosts File is hijacked, preventing security programs from running or updating.
Many users then believe that they are infected with the Conficker worm or variants of it.
This is not the case and there are ways to deal with this new threat.
Rename the 'exe' files for the security programs, this can be applied to antivus and antimalware programs which then work around the blocks imposed by malware
Simply open your Programs Folder, find the application folder, open it and rename the program itself.
For example: The path to rename the files is: Open My Computer then double click the C: drive. C: > Program Files > Program Name, open the folder and rename the EXE files ONLY. Whatever you rename then is what will show in task Manager when you execute them.
Also clean your Hosts File, download HostsXpert or HostsMan and use the 'Restore MS Hosts File' function to clean your Hosts and remove all entries to leave a clean Hosts File. Please reboot your PC after this step.
When using Hosts programs it is essential to disable the DNS Client, simply open Admin Tools and open Services. Scroll down to DNS Client and click to highlight, in the left pane Stop the service, and then right click the DNS Client and select 'Properties', it is usually set to 'Automatic', change this to either 'Manual' or 'Disabled', click OK and exit Services.
In many cases your security programs will be able to then connect and update.
Once the malware has been removed, if using Spybot or any other Hosts blocking program you will need to immunize again or import Hosts from hpHosts or MVPS.
This is a very simple method to implement and the majority of users will then be able to update security applications or download antimalware programs from reputable sources.
