    Worm: Win32/Rebhip.Z and Worm: Win32/Rebhip.U

    Hi,

    my computer has been infected by these 2 viruses (Worm: Win32/Rebhip.Z and Worm: Win32/Rebhip.U). Whenever I scan with Windows Defender it does not find anything. However, when i reboot the computer it automatically quarantines them each time i reboot.

    How do i get rid of these viruses?? Is there a safe program outside of Windows Defender? I tried deleting some temporary files and updating my java and chrome as this website suggested but no luck. Please help! Thanks!

    See the following document from the MMPC:
    https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/entry.aspx?Name=Worm:Win32/Rebhip.Z

    Try scanning your flash drives with Windows Defender.

    Even better try scanning your flash drives with Malwarebytes Free

    My Windows computer is full of viruses and or worms..

    Phone to PC worm on the loose.

    When virus programmers tried to infect mobile phones, they didn't get very far. The first viruses spread themselves via bluetooth, describing themselves as a software update. As time went on, mobile viruses got smarter. And now, according to security experts at F-Secure, computers can officially get viruses through mobile phones. And it's not a proof of concept bug. The Mobler worm spreads itself by disguising itself as an .EXE file, which can be found on the phone's memory card and installed on a Windows platform. According to F-Secure,
    F-Secure has released an update to it's anti-virus programs to detect and eliminate the Mobler worm.
