DO NOT use any TOOLS such as Combofix, SmitfraudFix, MBAM, Vundofix, or HijackThis fixes without supervision.

Doing so could make your pc inoperatible and could require a full reinstall of your OS, losing all your programs and data.

Vista users:
1. These tools MUST be run from the executable. (.exe)
2. With Admin Rights (Right click, choose "Run as Administrator")

Stay with this topic until I give you the all clean post.

You might want to print these instructions out.

I suggest you do this:

Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Uncheck "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
Uncheck "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.


Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.


Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All

Click the Empty Selected button.

(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)

It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.

Next:

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.

• Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
• At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
• If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
• Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.

• When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
• [external image: Posted Image]
• Then click Remove Selected .
• When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location and post the results.
• Note: If you receive a notice that some of the items couldn't be removed, that they have been added to the delete on reboot list, please reboot.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Please don't attach the scans / logs, use "copy/paste". .

actually my computer has been doing a lot better, all i did was COMPLETELY uninstalled Comodo, can CCleaner (fix reg and just a regular cleaning), rebooted, reinstalled Comodo, reboot, update antivirus, reboot, ran SuperAntiSpyware [SAS] (which found a hand full of trojans), reboot, ran comodo virus scanner (which found a few remaining trojans), re-ran SAS which came back clean, re-ran comodo virus scanner which came back clean. i will admit that it is slightly slower than usual, but i think its due to using multiple java based internet applications, which i never did before now. if at all possible, i'd MUCH prefer not to add more scanners or programs unless it is absolutely necessary.

Good. It's your choice if you want to run what I posted.

well if you found something that was stealthy and hard to find or rid your system of, like for example virtumonde, it'd be good to know. i mean, did you FIND anything that would be considered high risk or dangerous, or are your recommendations a precautionary messure.

The MBAM scan will show it if you run the scan.
