BleepingComputer.com: Hacked by a ebay/paypal scammer?

Forum Rules

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.

If you have not received help after three days, please post a link to your topic HERE.

I will check it out for a week or two. I had a Kingsoft PC doctor come up on my desktop. Did we download this? If there is a way to make a donation to you or this site let me know. I do appreciate your time. I will contact you either way to give you an update. Buck

Hello, No we did not,but it did have to be downloaded.
Looking at it I would remove it, I see this "intensively cleans Windows registry errors"
These cleaners do more harm than good.
It's possible that it's Cloud Security is making contact with the outside.

Thanks for the offer... I do not accept donations nor does BC.

I did forget one thing. When I try to post on the ebay disc. board it asks for for my user id and pass as usual but will not let me post. Ebay says contact moderator (Liveworld). They do not reply. I can use a different pc or change browsers to get through. What may cause this?
