Hacked by Godzilla
I had few experiences fixing computer which been infected by virus, possibly coming from memory card. According to Leo Notenboom in his blog, he said that possibility for viruses to transfer from camera memory card to computer is likely 0.01%. However based on my experience, I can see that the possibility might be 100%. Some of them are very hard to remove such as "Restricted by Bro Act" and also this new virus for me "Hacked by Godzilla".
If you using Internet Explorer browser, please check your top title bar, if there is a word "Hacked by Godzilla" written beside your web page title, your computer might be infected by the virus.
The symptom? The virus has cause monitor to be blur and blank for a while and then after that, AVG anti virus program has gone and cannot use any anti virus to scan for viruses. I was surprise because when I check the computer, the AVG anti virus program that I've installed previously was gone. I've check the folder for AVG, and it's still there, but no executable program in the folder. In "Restricted by Bro Act" virus case, it prevent me from installing any anti virus, and also prevent me from opening any browser/folder that has anti virus/remover keywords in it. What a genius! It makes me want to learn how these people write the virus program.
I've found a forum from PC World that discussing about the possibility for a memory card to transfer virus. One of moderator in the forum wrote that it is possible for a memory card to transfer viruses. Plus he said that we will be fine as long as we have an anti virus with active scan feature in our computer.
I search the net and found several solution to overcome this virus. One of the manual solution can be found here from howto.redcomputer.net. Another easy step is to download this removal tools.

Restricted by Bro Act - Worm
Do you have ever found this worm? My uncle's computer have been effected by this worm last quite often. Usually the step that i use to solve a computer's problem that being affected by a virus or worm is just update the virus definition and they'll gone (no need to format pc). But sometimes the virus is very cleaver, just like this one. Very very cleaver... help me!!!
Why did i say this virus is cleaver? Because this virus or worm will take over your computer (that's why the virus display "Restricted by Bro Act" at all window bar or browser) such as control panel, ms-dos, system administration and all folders. I already tried to open a folder named "virus removal" in my thumbdrive, and suddenly this virus automatically close the folder, and i cannot browse my folder. I also tried to run removal tools from ms-dos command, but again, the virus can read my mind and close the ms-dos...Actually the virus didn't read my mind, it just read the folder or the application name, and if it contain word such as "removal", "anti virus", or something like that, the virus will automatically shut it down to prevent any healing action taken on the computer.
One thing that you can try... download an application called killvb.exe that will kill all application running either in background or currently running. After that you can execute any third party application that can see what application is running in the background, shutdown all strange application, and after that you can install anti virus and update it, and run full scan...good luck, i've try it once and it is successfully. :)
