 The recommendations given concerning disinfection of a computer from Virus.Win32.Sality should be applied only if NO Kaspersky Lab product is installed on an infected computer, and/ or if the computer is already infected and a Kaspersky Lab product cannot be installed by regular means. Kaspersky Lab experts also recommend using Rescue Disk to disinfect an infected computer.
The SalityKiller.exe utility given in this article allows detecting and disinfecting only the following Sality modification Virus.Win32.Sality.aa, Virus.Win32.Sality.ae, Virus.Win32.Sality.ag, Virus.Win32.Sality.bh.
In order to disinfect a computer from Virus.Win32.Sality, do the following:
If infected computers are in the local network under domain control:
Step 1. Preparation to disinfection:
- Download the file SalityKiller.zip
- Unpack the file SalityKiller.zip
- Run the file SalityKiller.exe on each computer in turn (for example, through Kaspersky Administration Kit, or the server group policy).
- on all computers on which the domain administrator can register and work
 While disinfecting this group of the computers do not log on under domain administrator on any other computers to prevent further spread of the infection in the network.
Do not stop or terminate work of the utility until all computers in the network have been disinfected.
Step 2. Algorithm of computer disinfection.
Computers on which you log on under a domain administrator rights should be disinfected first. Once these computers are disinfected, start disinfecting other computers in the network.
- Run the utility SalityKiller.exe on the infected computers once again (no additional commands to run the utility are needed).
- Make sure the anti-virus icon in the tray has turned red thus indicating the anti-virus software is fully functional. If otherwise, reinstall the anti-virus via Kaspersky Administration Kit.
- Update the anti-virus databases (signature threats) for the Kaspersky Lab’s product installed on your PC. If you cannot download the updates from the Internet, update from the zip-archives.
- set the full scan options to their maximum scan level
- run full computer scan
Step 3. Signs of a disinfected/ clean computer
- Kaspersky Anti-Virus is running and works in normal mode
- full computer scan does not detect infected objects on the computer
Step 4. Cleaning the registry of infected computers in the domain network:
- download the file Sality_RegKeys.zip
- unpack the file Sality_RegKeys.zip
- run the file Disable_autorun.reg from the archive Sality_RegKeys.zip
You can also disable autorun from all devices by running the SalityKiller utility with parameter -a.
- Click Yes to confirm adding the information to the registry
