Hi - any help you can give is much appreciated. I believe my husband may have gotten this virus from Facebook last night. He says he got a popup telling him he needed to scan the computer and he ran in (brilliant - but nothing I can do about that now). Anyway, now we are getting the following pop-ups...
Windows - Dealayed Write Filed
Windows was unable to save all the date for teh file \\System32\\496A8300. The data has been lost. This error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware.
Cancel Try Again Continue
Microsoft Windows
Catalyst Control Centre
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you in a solution is available.
Close program.
Also - there is a flashing button at the bottom of the screen that says OnlineCmdLineScanner.exe. I won't click on it, but when I hover over it - it says it is requesting your permission.
If any of these are clicked on - everything closes down and the computer reboots. Can you please help me.

Hello and
to BleepingComputer.
Let's see what we're dealing with here.
Please download RKill by Grinler from one of the 4 links below and save it to your desktop.

Link 4
Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and save it to your desktop.

alternate download link 2
IMPORTANT!!! - when you save the file, rename it to something random, such as bubbles.exe This must be done before beginning the download!
MBAM may "make changes to your registry" as part of its disinfection routine. If using other security programs that detect registry changes (ie Spybot's Teatimer), they may interfere or alert you. Temporarily disable such programs or permit them to allow the changes.

- Before we begin, you should disable any anti-malware software you have installed so it does not interfere with RKill running. This is because some anti-malware software mistakenly detects RKill as malicious. Please refer to this page if you are not sure how to disable your security software.
- Double-click on Rkill on your desktop to run it. (If you are using Windows Vista, please right-click on it and select Run As Administrator)
- A black screen will appear and then disappear. Please do not worry, that is normal. This means that the tool has been successfully executed.
- If nothing happens or if the tool does not run, please let me know in your next reply

- Make sure you are connected to the Internet.
- Double-click on mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
- When the installation begins, follow the prompts and do not make any changes to default settings.
- When installation has finished, make sure you leave both of these checked:
- Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
- Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
- Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
- Then click Finish.
- If an update is found, the program will automatically update itself. Press the OK button to close that box and continue.
- If you encounter any problems while downloading the definition updates, manually download them from here and just double-click on mbam-rules.exe to install.
- Make sure the "Perform Quick Scan" option is selected.
- Then click on the Scan button.
- If asked to select the drives to scan, leave all the drives selected and click on the Start Scan button.
- The scan will begin and "Scan in progress" will show at the top. It may take some time to complete so please be patient.
- When the scan is finished, a message box will say "The scan completed successfully. Click 'Show Results' to display all objects found".
- Click OK to close the message box and continue with the removal process.
- Click on the Show Results button to see a list of any malware that was found.
- Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
- When removal is completed, a log report will open in Notepad.
- The log is automatically saved and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
- Copy and paste the contents of that report in your next reply. Be sure to post the complete log to include the top portion which shows MBAM's database version and your operating system.
- Exit MBAM when done.
