good note
sounds good but: Sality does not only prevent safe boot, it also prevents regedit.
any idea what to do?
Hi Arturo,
First thank you for your comment and yes there is a tool called RRT Restriction removal tools I’ll put it here soon.

Hi Anwar,
I found Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
On the first run, this Programm eliminated 2 restrictions on my registry so I could edit my registry again and boot in safe mode.
It all worked out as shown on this webside here, great, sality bye bye.
On the end, I deleted all system-restore points, to make it shure.
Free Download at

Good luck, suerte,

Hello again Arturo,

Hello,
I had this virus many times, I have scanned all my drivers, and every thing went back to normal, when I scan my pc it tells me that every thing is OKAY!
But … I have those old .SWF files (were disinfected by Kaspersky “as said”), when I excute them “sality.aa” infects every thing again …
Any Idea on how to solve this ?
Thanks
Polaris have u tried this — > http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208279889
Thank you Luis, but your solution is for :
o Virus.Win32.Sality.y
o Virus.Win32.Sality.z
o Virus.Win32.Sality.aa
but not for Am and Ah and this way is for any type of sality worms.
Polaris,
About your old swf files is it with swf extension or exe extension and are they in your pc drive or external like in a CD or USB flash desk cuz I think swf files cannot be infected with this worm maybe the flash player program is infected.
Thanks for your replay ..
I have both .swf & .exe (Flash Files) files ..
They are on my HDD ..
I scanned them after disinfecting my System .. I scanned every thing .. and every thing is OKAY as Kasper Sky AV 2009 (UP-TO-Date) …
when I run them they infects my system .. so I scan them again and executed them on Virtual System .. and they infected the system as well ..
Thanks again
Dear Luis,
I have tried every thing .. but it didn’t work ..
I’m telling you that my system is clean, I don’t need to fix it, I just wanna disinfect my files …
Any way thanks for your replay
Polaris
Dear Admin,
I have them in .exe extension, I just meant that all application and .exe files were disinfected succsefully, but those files are Flash files in .exe extension.
anyway, as I tried KasperSky AV & IS and both told that files are clean, I didn’t tried Kaspersky removal tool ..
I downloaded it yesterday, scanned my HDD, every thing is clean but flash files are infected as Kaspersky removal tool said, so I told the removal tool to disinfect them, and it did, I just didn’t have the courage to run the files, and so I have installed a Virtual WinXP, and ran the files on it … and they worked fine, tried them on the orginal system, every thing is okay …
Problem SOLVED !
Note : I have Kaspersky AV 2009, UP-TO-Date, running .. It didn’t said that files are infected .. why ?? I mean the removal tool is also Kaspersky’s isn’t it ?
Thanks
Dear Polaris,
I’m so happy because your problem is solved and about your flash maybe you are using in with other infected PC’s so it will infected again so be careful.
Regards
Anwar
Dear Anwar,
Thankyou for your help ..
I’m always careful, my friend is the one who got me this virus, anyway …
I’m just woundring why didn’t kaspersky AV reported the files as infected ??
I wanna ask some questions about something other than viruses, can you help me ?
where can I ask you or maybe we can use MSN for the best …
here’s my MSN adelhakim[at]hotmail[dot]com
thx again ..
I tried above all, but i am unable to get rid out of enabling regedit, and boot in safe mode, moreover the virus doesn’t allow to install any anti virus programs
Dear anuj,
If you want your system to get back working normal, backup your files, and then format/recover your system, once your system is installed just download Kaspersky removal tool, and scan your entire HDD and any potable storage you have ..
after this is all done, download any AV program you like, update it and rescan your system, HDD & any potable storage you have, for better …
the most important thing of all is not to run any .exe files you already have on your HDD, or else your system will be infected again …
I hope this was helpfull …
Don’t know what to say to you Polaris, Thank you so much
for your response.
Hi all
I have a virus in my 2000 server, when i login to my server it shows blue screeen so i map the drives with a pc and scan it with kaspersky its shows me some disinfected virses like win32.sality.aa so can anyone help me how to remove this virus and how to login to the server becuse its showing just a blue screeen nothng else.
Can you login using safemode ?
If not, reinstall the same version of windows, without formatting your system drive, so all system files will be replaced, then download Kaspersky removal tool and scan your PC ..
gd luck

Hey Guys !
i guess kaspersky is the good antivirus that can stop those kinds that infect ur pc but at the end the virus can win since he infect all ur exe files and it will be hard to disanfect even with malwarebytes hard to delet and if u install antivirus will delet ur exe file coz are infected already so ……
i can only format my pc and start over again :s
Regards .
Thanks for this tutorial, after long hours of trying to find a way to neutralize this scourge, it seems like the kaspersky tool is the real deal.
For what is worth, the machine I cured had been using a very outdated Symantec trial version and it seems the infection spread from a flash memory. It seems like using a laptop without good antivirus protection is just no longer affordable.
thank u i had this virus in my pc & after using your advise it has gone so
thanks
you are so welcome amany.
