I'm no big expert about that file...
Pathfinder, did you have any success with it?

EDIT- Looks like google tracked me down.

I ended a similar proble just Last night. I ended up doing several things. I opened the file up with note pad and dleted it and then saved it. that almost worked. I finally killed it with norton antivirus. I just kept hammering at it until it quit. I kept trying several things. I wish I could be more specfic. Oh try renaming the file. and Combination of safe mode and cleaning the registery. I tried all thos things and finally registerd my copy of norton and then after that it appeared that norton finally helped destroyed it. I homp I am making some sense it was 2 am before I finall got most of this done. My file was Trojan.virus lsb_3f.dll.
Sorry for the jumbled post

Well now, this is funny ... siae3123.exe is no longer unknown to Google. Not only that, but our forum is now a source of expertise. Hello out there, people of Earth. We come in peace.

In all seriousness, this file seems to be spreading slowly around the world. {see here if you can read Dutch}


Pathfinder, did you try the latest Version of Spybot? Version 1.3 add lots of stuff, that Version 1.2 didn't have. Spybot does tend to find more things than Adaware. It's just that in rare occasions some of the registry entries it finds are needed by computer, and aren't spyware.

Well, we're not to sure about Fyron. We think he's an alien agent of some kind. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

What you need, methinks, is a program that reads individual bytes of the disk and overwrites them, reading and interacting with the file system itself, so as not to be stopped by things like 'this file is in use'. But I have no idea how that could be done.

It worked pretty good BUT didn't get rid of siae3123. That file just gave up its annoying habits. It is still there but not popping up anymore. It stopped after I tried a file/app called dellater.
