Klez is a real pain in the butt, because it tries to circumnavigate
the antivirus programs that you have on your computer.
The best way to remove Klez is by using Symantec's
Klez fix, yes the maker of Norton Antivirus, put out a freeware
program that removes Klez from your system. Yes, they're
giving it free because Klez is such an annoying pain in
the butt. You can download the Klez fix at:
Klez removal tool.
I suggest this as the universal fix at the moment, because
it's the easiest for me to explain :) Well, I mean
that this will work on all Windows systems and each of the
Antivirus programs give different instructions for the removal
of Klez.
Fortunately, I've never been infected with Klez, because
I have a virus scanner that scans attachments and I also
don't open attachments. Symantec gives a nice little
instruction page with this Klez removal tool. You'll
have to start your computer in safe mode and do this from
a command prompt, but you would have to do this with all
the current antivirus programs, because the nature of
Klez is to get around antivirus programs you have to apply
the fix at the command prompt.
You can do all this manually and edit the registry removing
the file and other such things, but it's just easier to
do it this way and I trust Symantec to produce a good
product that's easy to understand. Please download
this and check your comp, Klez will only go away once
people start fixing this problem.
