We have been fortunate to recieve the virus gift from afar. We have the W32.HLLW.Lovgate virus.
I have cleaned it from most servers, but have not been able to access the console on 1 server. I can logon, but get no screen (ie...no GUI interface) onthis server. When a do a CRT/ALT/DEL, I can choose any thing I want, but no action occurs.

Is there a way to get this fix to run on the local machine from a remote server? I can map drives to the bad server, but need to be able to run the .exe from the local machine. Any ideas???

Thanks

Maybe this will work, if you have not tried this before :

Open the taskmanager with Control-Alt-Delete
Select the "Application" tab
Select the "New Task" button
Enter the executable you want to execute and select "ok"

CTRL+ALT+DEL is unavailable to use...this seems to be the biggest problem. I can only logoff from the CTRL+ALT+DEL

Actually, I suggest you try running Explorer manually.
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL
Click the Processes tab
Click File -> New Task
Type in "explorer" (without the quotes) then click OK.
After that,your normal GUI interface might start.
Run your Lovegate cleaner after that.

hope this helps
