I haven’t had to deal with computer virus for a while. Today I had to spend hours just trying to delete two DLL files injected into my system by some ad-ware/spyware. Here are steps I took to removed them. Hopefully they will be helpful to you in removing those particular files or just in general removing malicious files:
The two files are ddccy.dll and opnnljj.dll. You can Google them to see what they do. I made use of Windows XP Professional CD.
- I booted the system with the XP CD.
- (Then inserted my RAID driver since I’m using RAID. You can skip this step if you are using IDE drives).
- Choose "Repair" mode. Then choose an installation and log in.
- Navigate to the folder where the files are located, use "del" command to remove them.
- Reboot back into Windows XP and run HijackThis.
- Choose "Scan" and check the result
- Select the items that are related to the files you deleted, and click "Fix Checked"
- Done.
Good luck and be careful next time.
