Validation or virus?
Now let's return to the concept of account validation in Odnoklassniki. I want to inform everyone that there is no validation in Odnoklassniki, I had to register to see for myself. — this is identity confirmation by linking a phone number to a page. In the social network Vkontakte this is called “Account Validation”, and in Odnoklassniki it is simply “Page Confirmation”. If the “Pass Validation” window appears in Odnoklassniki, then you caught the virus. The virus can be caught in different ways, such as:
- Follow links from spam.
- Installation that promises mountains of gold.
- Visiting unknown sites.
- Carelessness and working without Anti-Virus.
- Too much trust in friends and their flash drives. :)
How to remove a virus in Odnoklassniki?

If you are faced with a situation where you cannot log into Odnoklassniki and a message appears about a sudden blocking of your personal page for an unknown reason, do not rush to send messages with an SMS code, but try to use this article to understand the current situation. Even if the page was indeed blocked by the administration, there were still some reasons and if this problem is not solved, then perhaps later you will lose your own account altogether.
Why doesn’t he log into Odnoklassniki? reasons and possible solution
First of all, you should determine whether you can access your personal social network page from another computer or device such as a smartphone or tablet. This is a direct sign of a problem, specifically with the PC from which you are trying and cannot access the Odnoklassniki website:
- If on another device of yours or another person (you don’t have to save the password), you log into your account, then you can say with almost certainty that the culprit is virus on your computer changed the necessary parameters and you find yourself in the wrong place.
- If the account is still blocked on other devices and you know that you did not conduct prohibited activities and did not violate the rules for using the social network, then it is possible that there is some kind of malicious virus on your PC that is trying to perform some actions with your personal page or simply use it to steal data and hack into an account, resulting in falling under the automatic protection of personal social network pages. In this case, it is better to play it safe and view the files that are important for this.
Can't login for a reason malicious changes in the hosts file
The first and most important thing that a virus that appears on a computer does (most likely as a result of viewing an earlier infecting site) is to make changes to the system file hosts, which deals specifically with linking a site to a specific IP address.
As a result, instead of the original social network site, the user ends up on an outwardly indistinguishable site, where a message appears asking him to send an SMS message with a code or simply enter data from your account, after which it is stolen accordingly.
In this situation, you must definitely try to figure this out, otherwise you can lose a significant amount of money on your phone and have problems with restoring your own page, but still return to restoring your own computer.
For windows xp/2003/7/8/10 this file is in the folder C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. If you find it difficult to navigate directly to the desired folder, you can find it by name in the search bar windows. Having found the file we need hosts, you should open it with notepad. It should contain the following entries:
The most recent entries should be:
- On Windows XP: 127.0.0.1 localhost
- On Windows Vista: ::1 localhost
- On Windows 7/8: # ::1 localhost
Those with a hash mark are initially inactive and are present in the file by default, but everything below without a hash mark with the site names entered are changes that have already been made, with new malicious addresses to which the sending occurs. There may be a whole list of such addresses and, accordingly, if detected, they should be immediately deleted.
- If required, you can use a new file hosts and just replace it.
- After the cleaning has been completed, it is necessary to clean the computer not only with an antivirus (a constantly installed antivirus program very often does not provide protection against such viruses), but also, for example, with a special utility that works specifically against malicious programs of this kind and eliminating traces after infection by them. The purpose of such a program is only temporary, for necessary cleaning; it is not installed on the system for a long time.
- Be sure to restart your computer.
After this, you should already be on real Odnoklassniki.
The hosts file is not edited or saved after changes
- Some antiviruses have strict control over important areas and files, as is the case with the hosts file, as a result of which the computer will swear in every possible way and write something like “ access denied"—to do this, temporarily disable antivirus protection and try to open the file again.
- If the file opened and you were able to fix it, but it does not want to be saved, read the article.
Still won't log in your page on Odnoklassniki
Recently, “virus craftsmen” have managed to make entries much lower than what is visible when opened with notepad, omitting spaces, or worse, making a double of the file hosts and change the location, accordingly make it active, using a key in the registry, and the one that you open in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc, leave “for you”.
To do this, we need to open the key we need in the registry and find out which file hosts there is an appeal:
- Start, then Execute(or with the “ WIN+R“) enter the word regedit and press Ok
- For In folder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Tcpip\Parameters find the line on the right DataBasePath and look at the path of the file to which the key leads:
- If the path is different from C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\, then you need to edit with the right mouse button.
Checking connection and interaction with a genuine site.
This part of the article is intended to help you, when faced with a similar situation, quickly and accurately determine which site the computer is interacting with and exchanging data with when navigating.
For this:
- Click Start, then Execute(in the standard section or simply with the “ WIN+R“), launch the command line by entering cmd and then click Ok.
- After that enter nslookupok.ru(you can check another site, for example Vk.com) and click enter having thus completed a request for the addresses of classmates.
- And now enter ping ok.ru and press enter requesting the address of the social network with which data is currently being exchanged.
- Now the identified addresses, in our case correctly matching, need to be checked to see if they belong to Odnoklassniki servers. To do this, go to, for example, the service nic.ru/whois/ and enter the ip address obtained during the check:
Now we know for sure that the address with which the computer interacts belongs to the one we need, in this case a social network. This is especially important when you need to restore an account by sending an SMS message, but you are not sure that it is the same one. After this check, you can safely and without risk undergo all recovery procedures.
In this article we will talk about the virus that does not allow classmates to enter, which or as this case is also called - account validation in Odnoklassniki, or “page confirmation”. Linking a user's personal mobile phone number to confirm identity on a social network is called validation.
This social network is very convenient because everyone can communicate with their friends, colleagues, acquaintances, find new friends and do a whole bunch of other things. Taking advantage of this, there are hackers who, under all this noise, are trying to make a fortune for themselves.
One fine day, logging into a social network on classmates, virus may display the following: “Your profile is blocked” - this is the result of the activity of the Odnoklassniki virus on your PC. Or even classmates hacked the virus and used their malicious code.
What to do in this case when the virus blocked classmates:
- Do not allow your phone number to be entered. Otherwise, you will give hackers all your contacts and access to your phone number.
- Do not send any SMS from your mobile phone. Here you can get a huge negative balance, and at the same time they will not open access to you.
The idea of the scammers who came up with the 5537 Odnoklassniki virus is to put their website in place of the real one. The virus blocks entry to Odnoklassniki by replacing the IP addresses of the real site with the addresses of the pest’s owner’s site, which makes the trick very sophisticated. You think that this is your page, but in fact you are on the page of some Evgesha Rostovsky. The principle of operation when a virus has blocked VKontakte and Odnoklassniki is very similar, but there are some differences in removing the virus blocking Odnoklassniki! The virus has blocked my classmates, what should I do?

Recently, a new virus has been activated that blocks entry to social networks such as R20; OdnoklassnikiR21;, R20; VkontakteR21; and others, and in some cases on the Internet.
The fact is that viruses replace the page R20; OdnoklassnikiR21; or R20; In contact R21; and disguise themselves as a support service, and antiviruses, be it ESET Nod32 or Kaspersky, cannot intercept them. Defeating such a virus is not very difficult, the main thing is not to give in and do not send SMS messages to dubious numbers.
So let's look at how you can cope with such a virus.
On the desktop, open R20; My Computer R21; and go to the address c:WindowsSystem32driversetc, open the file using notepad hosts
Right-click on the file R20;hostsR21;, in the pop-up window select R20;OpenR21;
Select the program R20; Notepad R21; and press the button R20;OKR21;
This is what should be in the file R20;hostsR21;
Scroll to the very bottom of the file and you will find extra lines at the very bottom; you need to delete them all and save the file. Afterwards you need to reboot. And drive the disk R20;CR21; antivirus.
Here is the text that should be in this file (and nothing else)
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
#space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a R16;#R17; symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com
# source server
#38.25.63.10 x.acme.com
# x client host
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
#127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
You may ask how to remove a virus on a 64-bit version of the OS?
In 64-bit Windows there is no folder R20;ectR21; and file R20;hostR21; they are located in another place, they can be found through R20;SearchR21; Or you can do it easier. Just create the folder R20;ectR21; by the address c:WindowsSystem32drivers, i.e. in the folder R20;driversR21; and in the created folder, use notepad to create the file R20;hostsR21; without extension R20;txtR21; with the above text, save it to the folder R20; ectR21;, reboot, run it with an antivirus. All is ready.
Good luck in your fight against viruses!!!
