Thanks for the detailed explanation,Dak.We all learn from your expertize.Why I started this thread,is that I was reading about a Worm, W32 TIDNS- msqpd xvx,and for a Dummy run, googled Remove.The removal instructions were not clear,to me,so I asked how to Backup the Registry,how to navigate the Registry,stop MS services,etc etc.I followed these instructions but got lost on entering the Registry.Read somewhere else,you type regedit,in the run Box.I got lost where the Bold text starts.Still don't know how to find an Image Path.You are right,it's not for the faint hearted.Will download the Program,TY.Sorry,if I am a pain in the Butt.Just want to learn. 🙂How to Remove W32.Tidns:by precisesecurity December 11th, 2008 at 1:28 am1.
