Remove Kavo Easily

For the past few days, my laptop anti-virus has detected and removed the “Autorun-G” virus/trojan but that damn virus kept on re-appearing! This is what was reported by Avast! AV

Avast! Warning:
File Name: C:\autorun.inf
Malware-Name: INF:Autorun-G [Trj]
Malware-Type: Trojan Horse
VPS Version: 071205-0, 05-12-2007

So I googled on this and found out this virus is also known as Kavo or NTDELECT, as the kavo.exe will re-create files that will re-infect your pc. There are many people who got infected as well and can’t find an easy solultion.

Some tips that I found were quite long and required you to reboot into Safe Mode, delete some files and registry entries, which makes me pretty uncomfortable.

However, I found this site which has a link to a simple removal tool named “Kavo Killer” for Win2000 and WinXP. My PC is WinXP Pro so I tried it and it works! Yeay!

If your windoze computers are infected with this as well and your anti-virus can’t remove it, you can try this but do so at your OWN RISK, I will not be held responsible if the software caused any irreplaceable damage to your PC or data. Also, let me remind you that this tool is for systems running Windows 2000 and Windows XP ONLY.

Careful with your domain search

Especially if you search on networksolutions.com, because when you do a search for domain availability, the next day you will find it has already been registered and will offer it for sale to you.

Check this out.


*Click for larger version.

The domain says “www. visit mrbadak dot com .com” hehehe.

This was exposed in reddit yesterday where the submitter asked everyone to enter ridiculous search terms as a domain name and an autobot will register it soon. I tried it myself and that was the domain I typed. When I check this morning, sure enough, the domain has been registered by network solutions.

I still can buy it though from them for US$9.90 but only from them. Other sites like netfirms sells domains less than that.

So you know what you have to do right? Head on over to network solutions and type in funny, crazy long domain names and check on it a few hours later.

Let me know what domain names you can come up with. For some ideas, check out the reddit games comments.

Joke of the Year

I got this from the email with the subject “Joke of the Year”.

joke of the year chua

I have to highlight this -

And be faithful to your partner

*sigh* Who would’ve thought exactly a month after the above news was published, the DVD circulation of his sex adventure with a “personal friend” would see him quit from all of his posts?

Beer wore seatbelt, man did not

Funny this

CITRUS HEIGHTS, Calif., Jan. 8 (UPI) — California police said a man who was injured after losing control of his car was not wearing a seatbelt — but his 12-pack of beer was buckled in snugly.

Officers in the town of Citrus Heights said witness accounts indicated that Alexsandr Gritsyuk failed to negotiate a turn while traveling at about 60 miles per hour on a city road and struck a tree, KCRA-TV, Sacramento, Calif., reported Tuesday.

The police said Gritsyuk, who was treated for his injuries, did not appear to be wearing his seatbelt during the incident, but a 12-pack of beer he was transporting in the car was securely buckled.
