I checked in startup its there, I removed and restarted but its coming again, I tried in safe mode and ran stinger anti virus here I can delete and after reboot its comming again..

I've merged the two threads.

I'll be watching this new member closely, as he/she has quoted word for word from the old post and disregarded other Posting Guidelines.

Wow another person having same problem as i had.
But i get rid of tjis irritating problem.
If you reinstall your OS problem will not solved it will remain.
Tell me is their any file having msExcell icon and all files are hidden if yes then do as written below if no then also do as i say because i have fun.exe and msexcell iconed files both.

Close all applications you are using. Then open taskmanager and close all applications except explorer and taskmanager but do not terminate applications which are not asociated with user.
An dnow open the drive having fun.exe but remember donot doubleclick rightclick on the drive and then choose open. Now delete the files from each drive but opening it manually donot double click other wise this will execute again.

Dear All,

I have seen thoroughly the problem. my two interconnected PCs were caught by dc.exe and fun.exe. an interesting solution to solve this which I had tried and suceeded is
1. first quantinee the exe files through some antivirus
2. delete the dc.exe and fun.exe files by searching the computer
3. delete the entries of these file from registry
4. delete their pf extension files from the computer
5. boot in safe mode
6. restore the computer to a just before virus effected date.

Dear gabskh,

In your 1st point "first quantinee the exe files through some antivirus", Can you suggest some Free Anti-virus softwares for this purpose.
