Troj/DownLd-AAP disinfection instructions

Resolve is the name for a set of small, downloadable Sophos utilities designed to remove and undo the changes made by certain viruses, Trojans and worms. They terminate any virus processes and reset any registry keys that the virus changed. Existing infections can be cleaned up quickly and easily, both on individual workstations and over networks with large numbers of computers.

Windows 95/98/Me and Windows NT/2000/XP/2003

Troj/DownLd-AAP can be removed from Windows 95/98/Me and Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista computers automatically with the following Resolve tools.

Note: When disinfecting variants not listed above, use the recovery instructions in the appropriate virus analysis. As the Trojan can spread via removable drives, the Resolve tools scan 'AllDrives'. This may result in the scan taking a long time.

If you are disinfecting several computers; download it, save it to floppy disk, write-protect the floppy disk and run it from there.

Command line disinfector
