How To Get Rid Of Fisika.exe Virus

A few days ago, I went to Plasa Telkom in my city. I didn't intend to pay my account bill, because I've paid it, but to get free internet browsing. Shortly, my flash disk got infected by Fisika.exe Virus from the computer.

This kind of computer virus uses media of Naruto.exe file. The file name is so famous and may be, my younger brother was curious about the file. So, he double-clicked that file. As the result, Windows Media Player started and played a wmv file. The file name is naruto.wmv with 0 kb size. Ofcourse, it is a cheat file.

The other effects of this virus was occured in my system. The text "Start" on the Taskbar changed into "Fisika". If we execute Internet browser like Firefox, the title changed into "Fisika" as well. If we type "f" in Word, notepad, Location Bar of Firefox, etc., the window of the application will be minimized automatically. Although this kind of computer virus is not categorized as dangerous virus, virus is virus. It is annoying isn't it?

Besides that, the Fisika virus gets its forth by blocking registry editor, task manager and System Configuration Utility (msconfig). This virus can't be decected by many famous Antivirus software.

After trial and error, searching again and again, I was attempted to download the Final Version of ANTV-MD5-Pattern With Editor Database 5.05e. At first, this virus was not detected by this antivirus. But I tried:

1. Select "Utility / Tool" tab.
2. Look for "fisika.exe" from the Process list (in the infected computer).
3. Right click.
4. Select "Send to database as virus".
5. Click "Yes".
6. Scan the infected drive or folder.

Alhamdu lillah, with these steps, now, my computer is free from Fisika.exe virus.
