Hello,

On 9-18 I had a virus alert by AVG, and after running Malwarebytes it found: Rogue.ProofDefender, malware.trace, personalguard 2009, hijack.usernit and shell, as well as many other things. Today it found trojan vundo.

I ran Malwarebytes multiple times, and have allowed it to remove found entries. I have also ran Super AntiSpyware and removed the entries it found. I have now finished running Malwarebytes, SAS, and AVG all of which have not reported anything else.

My problem is that I know that there are still remaining effects considering I cannot startup in SAFE mode.

Any help would be appreciated!

Try the "Repair Broken SafeBoot Key" fix in SUPERAntiSpyware (under Preferences > Repair tab).

If you’re clean, you should create a new Restore Point to prevent possible re-infection from an old one.

Go Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click System Restore. Choose the radio button marked Create a Restore Point on the first screen then click Next. Give the Restore Point a name and then click Create. Then use Disk Cleanup to remove all but the most recently created Restore Point. Go Start > Run and type: "Cleanmgr" (without the quotes). Click Ok > More Options tab > Clean Up in the System Restore section to remove all previous restore points except the newly created one.

Also, go Start > Control Panel and double-click Add or Remove Programs. Post back and report any Java or JS2E entries that you have.

I'm assuming I'm clean, I have run AVG, Malwarebytes, and Super AntiSpyware in safe mode and have come up with nothing.

Under control panel, add/remove I have found no entries of java or JS2E.

Next obvious question is should I?

A lot of websites use Java, so it can be useful - but it is by no means essential.

You can get the most up to date Java Runtime Environment from here:
