My lab was infected few weeks ago, but I've manage to get rid of them. It's quite a hard work to remove the new version..

ur information is out of date. plz searching in this forum be4 posting, so there'nt double posting.

note: if anyone was infect by brontoks & kangen virus, plz do not use any removal/toolkit just do it with antivirus mcafee/norton av or avast av prof (good AV in this world) but remember 2 update ur virus databases. only that n Brontok/kangen will go away.

agree with rulee
Brontok is recognized on last november (2005) and it's spreading widely ever since...
the easiest way.. is to update ur antivirus virus definition... no matter what av app u use... they'll recognize brontok and remove it...
another way is manual... and quite challenging lol...
using a software called Hijack This...
this app will detect the malicious settings on ur windows configuration and registry (specially start ups, and windows explorers settings)
the complete guide can be found with google's help...

confirmed it's coming from Indonesia...

thanks for ur info... but... it's outdated...

cheers mate
