hi all-

fantastic forum as i've learned a lot from other threads but i am having some difficulty with my family members PC running Windows XP. He opened a malicious attachment and now has the System Check malware installed as well as others I'm sure. The version of AVG he had installed did not detect/removal properly and other tools are not responding well. Would love some help from an expert in determining if we'll be able to successfully remove.

thank you!

hi-

thank you for the link to the prep guide. i was unfortunately unable to capture any of the required data. i've got that particular system disconnected from the Internet so it doesn't reach out to download additional malware. i've loaded the tools to a flash drive but the malware has me locked out from certain things that are hiding my ability to get to the flash drive to run the programs. when i try to, it simply hangs the machine up.

thanks
