I ran the FixBlast on a friends PC that was hit, and 5 hours later it's still hasn't found anything. First time, I let it go for an hour with nothing. Don't they test these things before they release them?

P.S. Stinger from Mc Afee worked just fine, found a few other viruses too. The PC is back to normal.

Cartel had the same problem.  He is now busy trying Stinger.  Will let you know about his results.

You should be able to manually install the patch on xpsp2 machines. Just extract the archive, look in the "sp2" folder, copy the 3 files from that folder to the "Update" folder, Open the update folder, right click the update.inf file and select "Install".

All it does is to copy the 3 files frome the "sp2" folder to your system32 dir and your dllcache dir. You could even copy the files manually to those 2 dirs from safe mode if you liked.

Hi there DoG,

For some reason installing by the update.ini file didn't succeed.
I will try to manually copy those files.

So I should copy the following files to System32 and dllcache folder right?

ole32.dll
rpcrt4.dll
rpcss.dll

I couldn't find a directory called dllcache. Any ideas please?

Thank you. My computer is still vulnerable.

I think we don't wanna worry anymore. I never thought dllcache would be a protected operating system folder.
Just untick hiding protected operating system files (recommended) in Folder Options > View
and then you will find dllcache in C:\Windows\System32\dllcache. Voila!

Thanks DoG!

• now me starts rebooting to Safe Mode
• copy ole32.dll, rpcrt4.dll, and rpcss.dll to C:\Windows\System32\
• copy ole32.dll, rpcrt4.dll, and rpcss.dll to C:\Windows\System32\dllcache

Now this is not funny. I rebooted to Safe Mode and tried to replace ole32.dll, rpcrt4.dll, and rpcss.dll in C:\Windows\System32\ but it kept saying: the file is being used by the system and it cannot be replaced.
Should I try Recovery Console and then try to do it by command prompt?


I downgraded to Windows XP SP1 and then applied the patch.
