    Rontokbro or brontok virus is a rapidly spreading Internet worm that propagates by e-mail in messages with infected attachments. Once the user executes such an attachment, the parasite installs itself to the system and runs its spreading routine. It scans the entire system for e-mail addresses and sends itself there using own mail engine. Rontokbro modifies essential system settings in order to disable standard Windows tools such as the Registry Editor or Command Prompt. It also immediately restarts a computer when it detects certain software running. Such software can be various antivirus and anti-spyware programs, web browsers, programming tools and many other popular applications. Rontokbro may launch an attack against several well-known web sites. The worm’s activity severely degrades overall system performance and Internet connection speed and causes general system instability. The parasite runs on every Windows startup.

    First remove the network cable.
    Check fi there are any files that are corrupted.
    Later connect to the internet and renew ur norton or download AVAST antivirus. IT IS FREE.
    Remove the network cable again and scan all the drives using the virus scan. It will detect the virus found in the PC and will give u a reprt adn ask if you want to remove / delete them.
    Now just get rid of them.In future, make it a lesson that you do not connect to internet without proper antivirus installed and also set ur internet security settings as high in the internet options menu in the tools menu in IE.

    all the best.

    start ur computer in safe mode.
    then start-> run . then type regedit
    press ctrl + F type brontok delete all the registries
    close the registry editor
    go to seach files and folders find brontok and delete restart and use.
    The most important tip: if u r on a local area network the basic source of these kind of viruses is Shared Documents.
    right click on shared documents and uncheck the "Allow network users to change my files" .

    AVG Avast has a free version that works VERY well on my wife’s PC. (I have a Mac, so I have MUCH less to worry about there). Don’t know how well Avast does on virus’ that are already on your PC. May have to back up your important data and rebuild your drive and OS. As for how it gets in your PC, any one of about a thousand different ways. ALWAYS make sure ALL your programs are up to date, especially Windows. Microsoft issues updates on the second Tuesday of every month, so set Windows to update monthly late that night and you’ll be as secure as windows can make you.

    most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser.

    you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus. i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar.

    firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser.

    as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.

    besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE. download firefox for free, Just have a try:
