Hi, i just downloaded combofix, and i am familiar with this software,

but, in this particular computer, combofix quarentined a lot of my files, it move them into c:\qoobox\quarantine\c\games\CoD\CoD.exe.vir and so on.


so i abort the process,

i wonder if there are any combofix command line, to avoid this behavior,

or to know why combofix move my file into quarantine?

Unfortunately the author of the tool does not want information on how Combofix works on public forums. This is in order to safeguard and protect the integrity of the tool from malware writers. As such, the developer does not want his tool discussed outside of private forums and therefore we cannot answer specific questions. That's the decision by the creator and we will abide by that decision.
Please read Combofix's Disclaimer. Using this tool incorrectly could lead to disastrous problems with your operating system such as preventing it from ever starting again.

The only public information that is available can be found at this guide:
