QUESTION: My PC has been attacked by an virus named KAVO.exe. But i suceed to clean it from my computer by using my antivirus. But after i remove the virus i was getting this weired message box everytime when i start my computer. The error says " CANNOT FIND kavo.exe, or the shorcut is missing". I just want to ask your help, how to remove that and is it possible or i have to reformat my pc. By Rebecca From KUALA LUMPUR.
Well, hi ok, what i got to know is your system is locating/search for the kavo files, and it cant found it. it means the kavo virus have left an startup files.
STEPS TO REMOVE IT:
This steps is only to remove the symptom of the KAVO.exe virus. No to remove the virus.
Alright, What you have to do is check your START UP at the start menu.
Go to START > ALL PROGRAMS > Startup > right click and open it check weather got a file named empty.exe or empty.bat . Then remove it.
After that use my MSCONFIG style, check out on my blog you will know how to use the MSCONFIG.
at the startup of MSCONFIG
untick these files
Kavo.exe
empty.exe
and you will see an box ticked without a name.....its a trick by the trojan KAVO
untick it also....
then apply then OK, Dont restart your PC Yet.
USE WINDOWS REGISTRY
Here i'm going to teach an new method that is windows Registry.
Ok then Go to START > RUN > type regedit then Ok
then press F3
then type explorer.exe
or scrool down to the HKEY_CLASS_ROOT > APPLICATIONS > explorer
Double click the TaskbarGroupIcon on the list of names.
on the value data area remove everything then these %SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe,
Now Restart Your Computer I'm sure the ERROR message wont disturb you again.
