    Hi,

    I have a virus on Windows Vista home premium. Windows boots ok, but I get a popup saying 'you will be logged off - you have been hit by the 101010 virus'. I have tracked it to the windows folder as wlrmdr.exe process. I cannot delete or end it.

    If I click ok the window dissappears, then get another window saying 'your computer will shutdown in 2 minutes'.

    I run the command 'shutdown -a' which stops the shutdown.

    So heres what I have used to scan for the virus:

    F-Secure
    Spybot Search and destroy.
    Combofix using custom script.
    Malwarebytes.
    Mcafee.

    ...all of which have not removed it.

    I really need to get rid of it as soon as possible. Has anyone ever been infected with this or have any suggestions?

    Reinstall Windows is a real last resort for me.

    Thanks for reading.
