I think I have the correct forum for this thread. If not, I'm sorry about the misunderstanding. My computer got infected with Antivirus Suite. I keep getting the Antivirus Suite pop-up screen and another one in the lower left corner of the screen labeled Antivirus Alert and asks me if I want to buy protection or continue unprotected. Also, despite the fact that I use Mozilla Firefox as my browser, the infection also causes my Internet Explorer to open up to an unpleasant website. I tried removing the Antivirus Suite infection with ComboFix, but I'm stuck at the end of the process. I followed all of the prompts that were listed on bleepingcomputer.com's instruction list for running ComboFix. After everything was finished a log report was generated and I saved it. When I minimized the screen with the report I noticed that the icon on my desktop for ComboFix that was there after I saved it to my desktop early on in the process was no longer on my desktop. Is this a problem? At the end of the instructions is says "Post this log as a reply to the topic where you were asked to run combofix". The program never gave me a screen asking me run combofix where I could post the report as a reply. I don't know when to actually use the ComboFix log file. Did I miss something? I tried this last night, too, but the infection is still on my computer. Last night I had a separate log file created, but I can only find the one generated from today. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. I would really appreciate the help with this problem. Thanks in advance.
