I was recently infected with "Antimalware Doctor", which could not be resolved with Windows Defender or Microsoft Security Essentials. Finally, an OS "repair" using the Vista Home Premium DVD seemed to get rid of it... but I still have problems with multiple instances of iexplore.exe opening in the background, accompanied by random pop-up ads every 20 minutes.

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware detects nothing. I finally decided it was time to post my problem here with a DDS and GMER log, but GMER keeps crashing to BSOD a few minutes into the scan! What do I do?

Hello Please go here....
Preparation Guide ,do steps 6 - 9.

Create a DDS log and post it in the new topic explained in step 9,which is here Virus, Trojan, Spyware, and Malware Removal Logs and not in this topic,thanks.
Try GMER in Safe Mode. If Gmer still won't run,skip it and move on.
Let me know if that went well.

Hello, you're welcome. A member of our MR team will be along soon to help you clean this.
Now that your log is properly posted, you should NOT make further changes to your computer (install/uninstall programs, use special fix tools, delete files, edit the registry, etc) unless advised by a Malware Removal Team member, nor should you continue to ask for help elsewhere. Doing so can result in system changes which may not show it the log you already posted. Further, any modifications you make on your own may cause confusion for the helper assisting you and could complicate the malware removal process which would extend the time it takes to clean your computer.

From this point on the Malware Removal Team should be the only members that you take advice from, until they have verified your log as clean.

Please be patient. It may take a while to get a response because the Malware Removal Team members are very busy working logs posted before yours. They are volunteers who will help you out as soon as possible. Once you have made your post and are waiting, please DO NOT make another reply until it has been responded to by a member of the Malware Removal Team. Generally the staff checks the forum for postings that have 0 replies as this makes it easier for them to identify those who have not been helped. If you post another response there will be 1 reply. A team member, looking for a new log to work may assume another HJT Team member is already assisting you and not open the thread to respond.

To avoid confusion, I am closing this topic.
