Sir,
We are facing the problem with Sality.aa. We tried to remove the entries, which have given you. But some entries are found and some entries or not found. After that we scan the system with Kaspersky but the safe mode, Registy & Task Manager also disabled. In this situation we downloaded some repairing tools also. With that only 2 minutes it works and after 2 minutes agiain condition is same.
Please help us in this regard
