The Jwgkvsq.vms virus is a variant of the Conficker Worm and is self replicating. It spreads through infected machines in an office or home network, email attachments memory sticks and other USB devices (primarily storage devices). The Conficker worm resides on both Windows.
Hi,
I have a very annoying worm virus jwgkvsq.vmx I have ClamEx with folder sentry, whenever I start up my computer file sentry goes nuts showing me multiple infected files.
jwgkvsq.vmx hides in my trash folder, I have used Terminal to show files (defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true) and used force empty on my trash (Option+empty Trash) yet the virus keeps on popping up.
I have run multiple scans via ClamEx, each time having to go to terminal, show hidden files and force empty trash, to no avail.
If you could help, it'd be very much appreciated.
