here's my situation:
1) i know people been asking the same question, but i've tried almost all the anti spyware software suggested, and anti virus as well, still, it's there.

2) Ad-Aware scan half way, automatically reboot my computer,
3) McAfee are not able to be install. even free scan from it's website are not working due to it prevent me from downloading the active x.

4) everyday i use the AVG to scan, there's loads of Trojan removed, and the next day it comes again. did it in safe mode as well.

5) System Restore doesnt work too, tried different date, it does not restore.

the annoying " ! " sign in the yellow triangle icon keeps telling me the message and direct me to amaena.com to download freeware.

please help.


!!!! and for the one who invented this stupid virus, please re-edit and check your spelling error, it's "Prevent" not "PERVENT" . !!!!!!

Sounds like it's time to format the computer and reinstall Windows.

If you have a Windows install disk, back up any personal data you wish to save. Before transferring back to your computer do a virus and spyware scan on the CD or whatever media you have it backed up to.

Then simply boot from the install disk [may have to change the boot order in the BIOS] and when it asks if you want to repair or install, choose install. Format the hard drive to NTFS.

If you have a restore disk from the computer manufacturer, use it, it will remove everything and return the computer to the state it was in when you bought it.

In either case don't forget to get all Windows updates and AVG updates first thing to help protect your computer.

Step 1 : Use Windows File Search Tool to Find Amaena Path



1. Go to Start > Search > All Files or Folders.

2. In the "All or part of the the file name" section, type in "Amaena" file name(s).

3. To get better results, select "Look in: Local Hard Drives" or "Look in: My Computer" and then click "Search" button.

4. When Windows finishes your search, hover over the "In Folder" of "Amaena", highlight the file and copy/paste the path into the address bar. Save the file's path on your clipboard because you'll need the file path to delete Amaena in the following manual removal steps.



Step 2 : Detect and Delete Other Amaena Files



1. To open the Windows Command Prompt, go to Start > Run > type cmd and then press the "OK" button.

2. Type in "dir /A name_of_the_folder" (for example, C:\Spyware-folder), which will display the folder's content even the hidden files.

3. To change directory, type in "cd name_of_the_folder".

4. Once you have the file you're looking for type in del "name_of_the_file".

5. To delete a file in folder, type in "del name_of_the_file".

6. To delete the entire folder, type in "rmdir /S name_of_the_folder".

7. Select the "Amaena" process and click on the "End Process" button to kill it.

8. Remove the "Amaena" processes files:Amaena.txt,
