Instructions for disinfecting W32/Flcss

The W32/Flcss virus infects most 32-bit Windows platforms (Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000 and XP). It can spread by copying itself across networks.

For all platforms except Windows NT/2000/XP use the instructions for removing PE executable viruses.

For Windows NT/2000/XP download the SWFLCSS cleaning utility on an uninfected PC. This file is available for download as a self-extracting archive, flcssfx.exe. It is also available in Zip format, flcss.zip.

Read the SWFLCSS notes for instructions on how to use the SWFLCSS to disinfect the W32/Flcss virus.

If you are using the Zip version of the file, unzip it using a tool such as WinZip or PKZIP.
