Programming / Re: Malware Has Taken Over My System!!! by QueryUnical: 11:34am On May 26, 2017
nually it won't ask 4 confirmation [/quote]

I tried that and I got an OS message "access denied" even when I attempted to delete it from the command line.

The sad thing is that the software might have accomplished its aim already.

I decided to quickly backup my projects to an external device.

I noticed that one of the lbrary that was copied to the backup had a name "bruteforce" and I never wrote any library with such a name.

Since the writer got me to download his executable by promising to give me a license key for unstalled shield it means the malware is targeted at developers.

My guess is that it copies a sinister libraries into all possible projects so that they eventually get deployed with the project.Meaning that all applications developed on the comomputer is compromised from the point of production.

I guess it does other things to that are not yet known to me.

It changed my system font to one that is compartible with Chinese.(By the way how does one change his sytems font).

Also it dropped beautiful,attractive and lovable Icons on icons on the desktop(the type used by games) that when clicked open system sensitive library directories.(May be that was because I succeded in uninstalling some of the programs it installed. Previously,when clicked one or both icons lunch a Chinese browser).Those Icons bore.the name of war games.

It also installed a chinese browser on my system but I was too scared to browse with it( I thought it was said that China blocked access to google and facebook.)

On the startpage of the browser were pictures of beautiful Chinese women(among others) so that those would entice me to use the browser.

Below at the status bar, various information about my system CPU were being displayed like a clock in a wat thar, I must say, was appealing. I almost appreciated it.

This are the things I have noticed. I am sure there is several other things it does that are quite unknown to me.

The most impressive thing about the malware is that I downloaded two top rated anti-malware from the interner but bith failed to install. Each complained they could not write to the registry.Now I have never ever experienced such.

I eventuallu logged in to my computer in safe mode where I was able to put your advice to successful use.

I can still see 3 application installed on my system start menu but unlike the one that requested for confirmation code there have a both main and sub startmenu directly whose name are written sokely in chinese.

One of those startuo icons lunch the browser and a second one lunch what look like a game.

Well, I have stopped using the computer to browse the internet and it will remain so until I resolve the issue.
Programming / Malware Has Taken Over My System!!! by QueryUnical: 10:50pm On May 25, 2017
Ah! Awoof is bad!
Free things are dangerous.

I was looking for a free license for install shield2015 since the trial version I Installed was no longer working. Unfortunately for me I was lured to download a malware.

My antivirus deleted it at the first attempt to run the executable, but rather than heading the advice of my antivirus, I turned off my antivirus, re-unzipped it and ran it again. The it all began.

It connected to a torrent site and downloaded and installed several software, mostly Chinese software. It tampered with my systems system restore. Virtually all the programs installed malfunctioned at every attempt to uninstall them. So they remain installed.

When I attempted to uninstall the one that seem to be the main one, it requested that I type in a confirmation code which was written in Chinese when my keyboard is English.

I tried to get and download a Chinese keyboard online, but, unfortunately, I couldn't identify the characters. Several characters all seem to look like each of them.

Now I am afraid to log into any of my online account least it sends my password to a remote server and hackers get a field day on my mail accounts and such.

Considering the fact that I can;t afford to format my system, what can I do to remedy the situation.

Attached is a screen shot of one of the pieces of software (malware) installed by the downloaded executable. Please is there any one her who understands Chinese and can just type the required confirmation code here on nairaland so that I can copy and past it in the confirmation textbox.

Education / How To Travel Safely To And From Unical To Ikotun, Lagos by QueryUnical: 5:41pm On May 25, 2017
Ok. My neice got admitted to Unical. She has been commuting to and from by air as I just learnt yesterday. I know it is not the most financially convenient transportation process for her parents. Her mother who took her down on the first trip found out that she would arrive in Lagos from UniCal in the dead of the night. She decided the safe thing to do was to travel by air after that her experience.

I however do believe that there would definitely exist right now students in unical who live close to , if not in the same location, as her home's location who have found a way to travel to and fro safely without arriving in the dead of the night.

Please, if you know an approach of travelling safely to and from UniCal to the above mentioned location without arriving in the dead of the night , do kindly share the information with me.
