trojan downloader in vista

[fluffygutss]

Hi tech support guys! You have been amazing help in the past and I always forward your website onto friends and family. I love my tech support guy shirt too! I think your website is of profound service to the internet community.

This problem has occurred on my tower pc also however I was ready to simply buy a new computer after reformatting 3 times!

This, on my vista laptop has been an exponentially growing problem which is why I assume it's some sort of trojan downloader.

After 2 days i have FINALLY managed to get into safe mode with networking and now I won't shut down my laptop until I fix it!

Desktop freezes completely/constantly, ctrl+alt+del does not function, administrator privelages gone.

Have been running full subscription of mcafee
have run SUPERantispyware
am running a scan of avast! now.
AVG anti virus would not install (but i know i should only use 1 at a time anyway)

I eagerly wait a response! Thankyou tech guys! <3 <3

Jana

Hey guys. sorry to bother you more!

My xp computer has been inoperable for a while now siiiigh!

here's what happens:
VIRUS ALERT! stays permanently down next to the clock
every time i try open/install or even uninstall something i get a dialogue box saying i have no administrator rights (even in safe mode)
I can't open any documents or edit any documents

I have managed to do some scans (avast!) in safe mode, this has removed many corrupt dll files which have thankfully stopped the gay and lesbian poo porn popups!!!

however! hijack this installed okay so I thought I'd post the log...
I would love some help

Also ran a deep scan with avast! before startup which prompted to delete quite a few things...

does it look pretty?

 

[cybertech]

Looks fine now!

Any problems?

 

[fluffygutss]

hmm yknow the symptons stopped all of yesterday but i regret to inform you that my desktop keeps freezing ><!

sometimes i can log on perfectly fine and then the next time my desktop/search/start bar etc. all freeze...

odd things keep happening like firefox suddenely stops working and won't shut down, not even through task manager.

im now running SUPERantispyware, zone alarm and avast! but these are the same symptons from before i downloaded these programs.

any ideas?

I appreciate your help there's nothing worse than working on a thesis for my graduation and then your comp starts doing these nice things! (yes it's backed up!! lol)

 

[cybertech]

First thing I would do is backup the FF bookmarks.
Uninstall, delete all folders associated with FF.
Defrag the machine.
Reboot and reinstall.

Also take a look in Event viewer and see if there is anything in the application log associated with the FF freeze up.
