I have Windows XP. I use Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security 2007 as my
antivirus program. When it runs a weekly scan, I get the following 2 issues
listed as VERY HIGH RISK vulnerabilities: TARGET: Office / ISSUE:
VBS.DAVINIA.A (related bullitin MSOO-O34) and W97M.GOGA.A (related bullitin
MSO1-028). I have installed all the latest available updates and continue to
receive these 2 issues as problems week after week. Does anyone know what I
can do and if I should be concerned?

Thank you,

Hi,
VBS.DAVINIA.A and W97M.GOGA.A are : Micro Viruses written in VBs
programming language, try to scan from other vendors with an online scanner
and also make sure the Trend definitions are up2date.
Scan for malware from here:
Spybot Search & Destroy
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Run a scan from here on-line:
http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym
http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx
Download Avast Cleaner (offline scanner) from here:
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-virus-cleaner.html
Lots of tools to download and disinfect your machine (offline scanner):
http://www.bitdefender.co.uk/site/Downloads/browseFreeRemovalTool/

2- Download the Hijackthis and send the report to one of many
forums for analysis and troubleshooting:
http://www.merijn.org/index.php
When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. Post
your log to http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30,
http://castlecops.com/forum67.html,
http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7, or other appropriate
forums for expert analysis, not here.
Any error message, have a look in the event viewer and post them here.

Hi Nass,

Thank you for your reply. I went onto HijackThis and ran a scan. I then
posted the log that I received on Castle Cops. No reply from there yet. I'm
really not sure what I should be looking for with these scans. My Trend
version is completely up-to-date and keeps finding the 2 issues. Those issues
don't appear when I run other scans with Spyware Doctor, etc. so I'm at a
loss.

Hi Elizabeth,
Could you please send me the Hijacklog at this address:
to_you_ross at yahoo.dot.co.dot.uk, replace the obvious to e-mail me (not
the underscore ( _ ) not (-) between to_you_ross.
Also could you include these info:
1- what operating system you are using, is XP Home or Pro?.
2- What version of Office you have install now on this machine?.
3- Your Connection to the Internet?.
4- When this happened, and did you install any software or copied old files
to your Outlook or received e-mail with attachment?.
5- Games installed on your Machine and other extra software.
Please try to use web based E-mail address not your Outlook/Express or other
Client to e-mail me, like Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail...etc.

HTH.

Hi Nass,

To answer some of your questions:
1 - XP Home
2- I have Word 2000 and Works 2005
3- Cable connection
4- I have been receiving these 2 issues as warnings for quite some time now.
Each time, I went to Microsoft's website for updates and thought it would be
resolved. But they continued to appear and I just dismissed them until
recently. I do not recall any particular thing being done before receiving
these msgs. I hadn't copied anything from Outlook, etc.
5- Pokerstars, Camedia Olympus Camera software, HP Officejet Printer
software, some games (that I don't play) that came loaded on my PC when it
was built for me in 2005. Powerpoint, Excel, Word, Works. Not sure if this is
what you meant (sorry, not very computer literate).

As I only use Outlook or Hotmail, I'll attach the log here. I'm not sure
what you meant by using a Web based email.

Hi,
VBS.DAVINIA.A and W97M.GOGA.A are : Micro Viruses written in VBs
programming language, try to scan from other vendors with an online scanner
and also make sure the Trend definitions are up2date.
Scan for malware from here:
Spybot Search & Destroy
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Run a scan from here on-line:
http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym
http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx
Download Avast Cleaner (offline scanner) from here:
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-virus-cleaner.html
Lots of tools to download and disinfect your machine (offline scanner):
http://www.bitdefender.co.uk/site/Downloads/browseFreeRemovalTool/

2- Download the Hijackthis and send the report to one of many
forums for analysis and troubleshooting:
http://www.merijn.org/index.php
When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. Post
your log to http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30,
http://castlecops.com/forum67.html,
http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7, or other appropriate
forums for expert analysis, not here.
Any error message, have a look in the event viewer and post them here.
HTH.

Hi Nass,

To answer some of your questions:
1 - XP Home
2- I have Word 2000 and Works 2005
3- Cable connection
4- I have been receiving these 2 issues as warnings for quite some time now.
Each time, I went to Microsoft's website for updates and thought it would be
resolved. But they continued to appear and I just dismissed them until
recently. I do not recall any particular thing being done before receiving
these msgs. I hadn't copied anything from Outlook, etc.
5- Pokerstars, Camedia Olympus Camera software, HP Officejet Printer
software, some games (that I don't play) that came loaded on my PC when it
was built for me in 2005. Powerpoint, Excel, Word, Works. Not sure if this is
what you meant (sorry, not very computer literate).

As I only use Outlook or Hotmail, I'll attach the log here. I'm not sure
what you meant by using a Web based email.

Please e-mail from either outlook or Hotmail. I meant by web based e-mail is
like accessing your e-mail account on the web/IE browser, not with a client
like Outlook/express, thunderbird..etc.

Hello again,
Sorry for my confusion. As I don't know what 'ping' means, how about if you
contact me at elizabeth underscore H underscore at hotmail dot com

Thanks again for your assistance.

I too use Trend Micro PC-Cillin and Windows XP. I am getting the same two
alerts. I have had no luck in figuring it out. Please let me know if you
find anything helpful.

Hi, Dear MSFT folks,
I believe this is common problem for those who bought Trend Micro product
(including myslef). Is there anyway you can try it out yourself (the
product) to find out this MSFT problem or simply contact Trend Micro to
resolve this issue. Please let us know howto solve the problem soon.
Thanks.

Best regards,
Thomas

I have been dealing with this also. I have been in contact with Trend and

they had me do several things including downloading their cleaner and the
hijackthis and nothing has worked. I am still trying to resolve this and will
let you know if I find a solution...if I can find this place again...lol
