I am getting the same Trojan virus that keeps popping up on my avg antivirus called Trojan horse Patched_c.LYU, i cant seem to get rid of it from my computer in Windows 7. Have been battling the same virus for 2 days but no luck? It keeps redirecting your searches and occasionally opens a new browser tab. Is there a safe way to remove it? Your AVG says it is white listed and cannot be removed. You do not want to change the system files. Need help removing the virus from your laptop or desktop? Learn more below.
Infected With Trojan horse Patched_c.LYU – How to Remove?
Trojan horse Patched_c.LYU is a new Trojan virus detected by AVG security tool but can’t be deleted by the anti-virus program. It is nasty just be updated from Trojan Horse Patched_c.lxt or Trojan horse Patched_c.LYT. In usual, this virus is found in this path: C:\Windows\System32\services.exe. Currently, a couple of people feel like their computers may be at risk as every time they boot up their computer AVG randomly detected a virus called “Trojan horse Patched_c.LYT” and apparently it infected a file called “c:\Windows\System32\services.exe”. And when people got the pop-up telling them that AVG found it, the only option given to them was to ignore it, as that file has been Whitelisted. In order to delete the evil virus, so they clicked that and hoped for the best. But moments later, the popup came again, still only one option. it’s been coming up every few minutes, with the exact same option. They’ve searched it on the AVG virus labs, and couldn’t find it. After scanning the computer, AVG found the Trojan horse Patched_c.LYU virus, but wouldn’t do anything but ignore it again. So after a few hours of on-and-off searching the internet for a solution, The computer randomly got infected with lots of Trojan horses, one of them called “Trojan horse Generic28.AUQH” in a bunch of files. Many of them in a file named “c:\windows\assembly\GAC\Desktop.ini”. Then again all you people have AVG scanning the computer and hopefully fixing the generic28 Trojans, but none of them know how to fix Trojan horse Patched_c.LYT as it is in the System32\Services.exe file. That makes them crazy. In fact, as long as your computer has networking, it has risk in getting this virus infected. So, obviously, you have to remove this Trojan virus in manual way.
