Nyxem virus has started to clean up the essential files from infected computers. Nyxem.E is a worm that evil may be different from mailing copies of itself as an attachment to an address book of contacts in a user's email client.

Nyxem is programmed to delete a number of common document format files such as PowerPoint presentations, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, Adobe Acrobat PDF files, ZIP files and PSD from 3 De February and the third a month later.

In addition to the destruction of files, the worm also tries to disable antivirus software to stop update, delete Windows registry entries and can also be important to disable the keyboard and mouse of computers infected. It was also reported that some Internet users have lost important files after becoming infected by the worm Nyxem, mainly because the time was wrong on your computer. Many users have their disk and format.

Many antivirus vendors have released patches for Nyxem, but it is estimated that thousands of computers are still infected. Most of these infected computers are of the opinion that in India, Turkey and Peru, but many other computer systems around the world could be taken as Nyxem virus will try to send copies of itself to contacts in an address book the user.

The worm tries to get through the same local network as any computer has been compromised.

To prevent infection Nyxem worm and loss of data files that should not open attachments or click links in emails, especially if these e-mails about a porn-Subject line or respect, with exotic images. The worm uses an icon that is trying to cover themselves. Zip. You should also back up all important files you want. It is also recommended to scan your computer for viruses.
