Fred the LizaMoon malware. My mate has it on his computer and when I tried to use that malware removal tool it stopped it executing. It did this with several removal tools I tried. It came up with a box with the words of" this program is not suitible with windows 32 bit and/or 64 bit systems" So it has evolved somewhat. I did remove two of its files that I found but I am sure most of it is still there.Where did the name of this Malware come from? Ross Johnson mr.rossjohnson@gmail.com
