Unhappy Cannot remove Virus / Malware need help
Acer Aspire desktop

Malwarebytes Installed
Superantispyware installed
AVG free antivirus installed
Spybot Search and Destroy Installed
Ad Aware Installed.
combofix

Did a scan with all programs and every [program picked up malware / Virus and completely reomved from system but when you restart the virus always comes back.

I have disabled system restore but somehow the virus is still there and every malwarebyets scan comes up with 2 new malware / virus every scan.

I have installed the new mbam_rules from a cd just in case my version of malware bytes was not up to date but the virus still lives.

Also the virus redirects you from bleeping computer, majorgeeks, housecall65.trendmicro, avast, avg, kapersky, etc websites but redirecting it to a either a dns error page or a local Jar: localhost etc.

I will download hijack if told to by someone here.

I need help and any would be appreciated.


Update:

Can I use a ubuntu / puppy linux etc live cd and do a scan that way? was just wondering if that would work?

Hiya

Are you still having this problem? If so, can you do the following:

Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop
  • Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
  • It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
  • Click the Start button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two. Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
  • Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.

Also, can you post the latest Malwarebytes and Superantispyware log's.



Click here
to download HJTInstall.exe
  • Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
  • Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
  • By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis .
  • Click on Install.
  • It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
  • Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
  • Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
  • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
  • Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
  • DO NOT have Hijackthis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

So, in your next reply, post a fresh HijackThis log

Regards

eddie
