Beberapa hari ini saya benar-benar gerilya untuk melawan conficker / downadup / kido. I still can feel the heat now :-) Benar-benar menguras energi karena saya baru belajar cara virus ini bekerja dan tidak mudah ternyata untuk mengalahkannya. Ampun deh.

Sebetulnya virus ini adalah jenis trojan yang merusak jaringan sehingga jika komputer kita tidak terhubung ke jaringan, maka kita tidak akan merasakan dampak apa-apa walaupun komputer kita sudah terjangkit virus ini. Namun jika komputer kita terhubung ke jaringan tertentu, pastilah kita dapat merasakan dampaknya, kinerja komputer menjadi sedikit melambat dan satu yang pasti, jika kita hendak surfing di internet, bakalan terasa seperti melihat gerakan slow motion di film-film :-) lelet banget. Jengkel juga rasanya.

Bahkan saya unduh sebuah tool dari Symantec yang khusus dibuat untuk membasmi virus downadup ini tetap tidak mempan, malah tool itu selalu mati ditengah jalan, gila juga. Virus ini bahkan sudah berkembang dalam beberapa varian lainnya. I’ll be damned. Nah virus ini ternyata menyerang Generic Host For Win32 dan Svchost.exe dalam sistem operasi kita sehingga,
kalau anda merasakan gejala-gejala seperti ini:
1. Anda berselancar internet dan mendapatkan bahwa aktivitas jaringan anda menjadi stuck atau hang. Icon koneksi internet masih ada tapi anda tidak bisa browsing atau melakukan apa-apa.
2. Anda mendapatkan pesan kesalahan seperti ini: “Generic Host Process for Win32 Services has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.”
3. Laporan pesan kesalahan tentang kegagalan netapi32.dll and svchost.exe.
4. Anda mencoba memutuskan hubungan internet tapi icon internet tidak bisa di remove.
5. Anda mendapatkan pesan kesalahan seperti ini: “Your PC has recovered from a serious problem” etc.
Ada empat solusi bagi Generic Host For Win32 Error di Windows:

Solusi# 1:
Klik Start – Run – dan ketikan “Regedit” kemudian carilah:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Services > Browser > Parameters
Carilah key:
Name: IsDomainMaster
and set
Data: False
Restart komputernya.

Solusi# 2:
Klik ‘Run’ dan ketik ‘cmd’
Ketik ‘netsh’ di command console dan tekan enter
Kemudian ketik ‘winsock’ dan tekan enter dan ketik reset
Restart komputer

Solusi# 3:

Unduhlah LspFix dan ikuti petunjuk yang diberikan

Solusi# 4:

Unduhlah Microsoft Update Patch dan implementasikan dalam komputer kita.

Saya harap salah satu solusi diatas dapat menyelamatkan komputer anda dari serangan virus ini, oh ya, jika anda terhubung ke jaringan, anda benar-benar belum aman sampai network administrator anda membersihkan seluruh komputer yang terinfeksi virus ini. Jadi benar-benar harus bekerja sama dalam memberantas serangan virus ini, tidak bisa hanya kita sendiri saja. Selamat berjuang.


  1. hahaha…sama donk klo gt…
    dan solusi tiap orang berbeda untuk vs virus ini…

    –salam kenal–

      You’ll have to forgive me here folks, this isn’t a very constructive screencast.

It was confusing, frustrating, error-prone, and make me [...]

      I can’t remember where, but a while ago I read something about using subdomains to serve up a sites resources as a way to potentially speed up loading. The theory was that the protocol that browsers use to communicate with servers only allows some limited number of things to be download concurrently from a single [...]

      Have you ever seen a tabbed content area in a sidebar that was a little “jerky”? The jerkiness can be caused by a bunch of things, like the content in the tabbed areas are of different heights, or maybe the way the switch happens the current one is hidden for a brief second before [...]

You’ve heard of them, but… Do you really understand them? The name might be a little misleading, because sprites aren’t little images like you might be picturing, a sprite is [...]
