Removing the Brontok Virus

The process for removing the brontok virus is simpler and without relying on any anti-virus softwares, we can remove the virus manually. 

The procedure to do so :

1. Open the computer using Safe Mode with Command prompt and give the following two commands

reg delete HKCU\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\system /v "DisableRegistryTools"

run HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\system /v "DisableRegistryTools"


Now these two commands makes your registry editor enabled using which we will finish up the task.

2. Now go to Run and type regedit and hit enter.

3.Now follow the path
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Run

and delete the entries in the right side of the screen having keywords "Brontok" or "Tok".

Now the virus is deleted but we have to make the folder options enabled.

4. Restart the system, open the registry editor and follow the path

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Policies\Explorer\ 'NoFolderOption'

and delete this entry.

To be on the safe side search your computer with the name *.exe and do remember to include the hidden files option and delete the search results which has as a Folder Icon.

Now your system is free from Brontok Virus.

2. Now Click on Option and Select the 'Go off the Record' option.
3. Now type some message and send it.
4. Now here is the trick, if you get a response "User is Offline and can't receive messages" in red font colour, then it means your victim is really offline.
5. If you dont get a response, it means your friend is in invisible mode and you are now ready to disturb them.

Yahoo Messenger
Well it is really easy to find out the same in Yahoo Messenger.
1. Open the Chat window of the particular User on whom you want to find whether he/she is invisible.
2. Now load the IMvironment "Doodle" and please wait since the IMvironment takes some time to load which depends on you connection speed.
