A 'morphing' virus, BLOCKED MY NET!

Thank you EricJH..!!
Thanks OmeletGuy..!
 

Dr. Web Live CD really worked..
That file hiding behaviour is no more.. Also, My PC is not creating those files on the USB Drives....! 

Ya, It had infected almost all exes on my PC (Or probably, all exes accessed after the first infection...!)..
Scanner listed out some hundred exes, great it cured Most of them!!! 

Though, Most of the apps I had installed are damaged, like Picasa, Gtalk, Nero, Partition Magic, FireFox and a lot more.. In most of them, the uninstall.exe was incurable, had to delete, But I did not unserstand the reason why should it be so..
In a few, if the starter exe is also damaged.. But I can install those Apps again...!! 

Ya, U were right, even the CIS was infected..
And the Firewall is still acting a bit wierd, its not allowing ANYthing to connect to the net, not even its own updater, something like a "Block-All".. I had to disable it to get online..

What do you suggest, should I reinstall CIS, just to be sure... Or reinstalling just the firewall should be enough...

I would uninstall CIS, reboot and use this clean up tool to get rid of possible left overs. Then install Comodo again with or without the AV.

Thanks EricJH for your openion..

Well, I tried uninstalling only the firewall, and then reinstalled it..
Cleared ALL the custom policies created, and started again...

Now the firewall seems to be working fine.. atleast it allowed me to connect!!

But after every boot I still get a popup saying that CIS encountered a problem and needs to close..
When I select OK, the window vanishes, but CIS doesnt close!!!
It works fine after that!!!

I think I should try reinstalling CIS, better.. As you said EricJH..!!
Thanks...
