Hi,

Last night (Actually early this morning), Kaspersky gave me red error messages about two programs. Immediately afterwards Vista Antivirus 2012 popped up and told me that I had all kinds of wicked, bad, evil viruses on my computer. When I realized it was blocking my internet access, I used my laptop to find your site and this article: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-win-7-antispyware-2012

I ran through the instructions and everything seemed to work. Rkill got rid of 2 files for me, but I didn't copy the log because I didn't think it was important. I can't find it now to post here -- if someone tells me where the log is I'll be more than happy to post it.

Anyway, I get to the MBAM section, and after running all night, it tells me that there are no problems. Does that mean that I got it before it spread, or is there more out there that needs to be done to get rid of this thing?

Thanks.

I work on virus infected computers

Even after mbam removing this trojan ,i could find it popping up

I found out that it was located in Appdata/local folder

You can find a exe file and a system file

example:dhf.exe and vsfsfggskg

You may need to check show hidden files and uncheck hide OS files

It should be visible now

Delete both of them and run exe registry fix

This is how i was able to remove it

Senior BC members may help you

Thanks

It's still very much around. Despite multiple programs telling me there were no issues (Kaspersky PURE 2011, Malwarebytes, Spybot S&D), it just re-installed itself. I really could use a hand with this.

Thanks

Okay, so I happened to run it this morning -- before you replied -- because the problems were unbearable, and it actually caught 2 somethings. Then I ran it in Safe Mode when I got home and -- perhaps not surprisingly -- nothing. I've also attached the run from directly after the initial infection to show you that I'm not crazy.

I'm kind of concerned that there was nothing, then it re-installed itself, then something pops up. Anywhere else I should check to be sure it's really gone? (The computer is acting better -- but still having issues. Like locking up briefly when I try to type an address in Firefox.)

Thanks

In the process of wiping and rebuilding the hard disk, so ignore me.

I need the computer working for work and decided that biting the bullet and reinstalling would get it up faster. Sorry for wasting your time.
