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.

Two days ago I was lucky enough to get the win 7 antispyware 2012 virus just browsing the internet. I didn't click on any links. When I got it, it pretty much locked my system down. I couldn't even start up in safe mode. Shortly after restarting my computer numerous times the virus minimized itself and gave me full access back to my computer. At that time I ran Malwarebytes like I usually would and removed the virus. I also ran super antispyware. Everything seemed to go back to normal except when I go into computer C: documents and setting or system volume info or config.msi and a couple other folders I get an error box. At the top it says Location not available, access denied. So I came to bp and followed these instructions to no avail http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-win-7-antispyware-2012. I'm not sure if those instructions worked for me since I had already ran malwarebytes.Posted Image

Please follow the instructions in ==>This Guide<== starting at Step 6. If you cannot complete a step, skip it and continue.

Once the proper logs are created, then make a NEW TOPIC and post it ==>HERE<== Please include a description of your computer issues, what you have done to resolve them, and a link to this topic.

If you can produce at least some of the logs, then please create the new topic and explain what happens when you try to create the log(s) that you couldn't get. If you cannot produce any of the logs, then still post the topic and explain that you followed the Prep. Guide, were unable to create the logs, and describe what happens when you try to create the logs.

It would be helpful if you post a note here once you have completed the steps in the guide and have started your topic in malware removal. Good luck and be patient.

If HelpBot replies to your topic, PLEASE follow Step One so it will report your topic to the team members.
