When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

hi i think i have a rootkit infecting my computer, I have run combofix and i get an error saying, c:/combofix/regt.cfxxe is not a valid win32 app, but it still scans i just have to press ok over and over while it's scanning it, combofix has also given me a message "zeropoint rootkit Detected" but I reboot and scan again and it finds it again and won't remove it. I have also used RootKit Unhooker, it has found several "Hooks" in my system files, but as soon as the scan finishes and I click unhook all, nothing happens, I think the rootkit messed with the file or something. When it finished the scan the entire windows changes from a white windows to a greyed out window, is this normal? Also most of the spyware / antivirus tools will not work when I boot in safe mode, I get alot of errors. plz help
