  2. Click the Download VundoFix link and save the file to your desktop.
  3. Locate the VundoFix.exe file on your desktop and double-click it to open VundoFix.
  4. Click Scan for Vundo. (Figure 1)
  5. VundoFix will begin scanning your computer. Any infections it finds will be listed in the white box above the Scan for Vundo button. (Figure 2)
  6. After VundoFix is finished scanning, it lists infected files. Click Remove Vundo.
  7. After VundoFix removes the infected files, it will prompt you to restart your computer. Click OK to restart your computer.
