BleepingComputer.com: Possible Rootkit, Need help removing

Let me start by saying that i am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Retail.

If I run Windows regularly, something prevents any 32 bit applications from running. I believe that this is because of a rootkit simply because the problem persists even after the drive has been formatted, even after a fresh install the problem returns. I have attatched a hijackThis logfile to help diagnose the problem.

Heres the DDS log:

Hello, Welcome to BleepingComputer.

If you still have the problems after a re format it's must likely that your problem in in a hidden partition.


Preferably from a clean computer, I need you to download: gparted-live-0.10.0-3.iso (115.1 MB) and this one,
Windows 7 64-Bit (x64) Recovery Environment

Create a bootable CD, 1 for Gparted and 1 for the Windows 7 Recovery Enviroment, from the ISO images. You can use ImgBurn do this.


This will help you burning the iso image(s) to a CD.

Now boot off of the newly created Gparted CD.


You should be here...
Press ENTER


By default, "do not touch keymap" is highlighted. Leave this setting alone and just press ENTER.


Choose your language and press ENTER. English is default [33]


Once again, at this prompt, press ENTER

You will now be taken to the main GUI screen below


I need to see a print screen of this last image.

To do print screen follow these steps:

* Press Alt and Print Screen button on your keyboard
* Open Paint program
* From the menu choose Edit then Paste
* Now save the picture and attach it here for me to review.

Due to the lack of feedback, this topic is now closed.
