Removing Nail and Aurora Spyware

Got another case of Nail.exe and Aurora popups.

This time I used a combination of 3 tools to remove it.

1) Run Nailfix.

You can find this program all over the net. Here’s one place to find it: nailfix for XP at
http://users/pandora.be/bluepatchy/nailfix.zip and nailfix for Win2K at
http://users/pandora.be/bluepatchy/nailfix2k.zip

2) Unregister aurorahandler.dll and DrPMon.dll. You can do this with the following command: regsvr32 /u dllname

3) After the unregister I was able to rename the nail.exe file and later delete it.

4) Run ewido. http://www.ewido.net

Ewido was able to catch all the other random-named files that would reinstall Nail.exe.
