Hi, First i want to say that the 64 bit download for FRST is broken so i only have the other program. So the problem that occured earlier today was your typical add and browser addon that i would normally just scan and delete using the anti virus program built into windows 8. However when i try to open the scanner or turn on virus protection i recive this error:

Hello vBates and welcome to the WTT forum.

My name is Satchfan and I would be glad to help you with your computer problem.

Please read the following guidelines which will help to make cleaning your machine easier:

• please follow all instructions in the order posted
• please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine appears to be clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear
• all logs/reports, etc. must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In Notepad click Format, uncheck Word wrap if it is checked
• if you don't understand something, please don't hesitate to ask for clarification before proceeding
• the fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
• please reply within 3 days. If you do not reply within this period I will post a reminder but topics with no reply in 4 days will be closed!

IMPORTANT:

Please DO NOT install/uninstall any programs unless asked to.
Please DO NOT run any scans other than those requested

===================================================

Run RogueKiller

IMPORTANT: Please remove any usb or external drives from the computer before you run this scan!

Close all running programs.

Download RogueKiller to your desktop

• close all running programs
• for Windows Vista/Seven/8, right click -> run as administrator, for XP simply double-click on RogueKiller.exe
• when the pre-scan is finished, click on Scan
• click on Report and copy/paste the content in your next post
• NOTE: DO NOT attempt to remove anything that the scan detects –everything that is reported is not necessarily bad

If the program is blocked, continue to try it several times. If it still doesn’t work, (it could happen), rename it to winlogon.exe.

Please post the contents of the RKreport.txt in your next reply.

===================================================

Run Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

Let’s try again with this link.

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

• right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
• press Scan button
• it will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from
• please copy and paste log back here.
• the first time the tool is run it generates another log (Addition.txt - also located in the same directory as FRST.exe/FRST64.exe). Please also paste that along with the FRST.txt into your reply.

Logs to include with next post:

RKreport.txt
FRST.txt
Addition.txt

Thanks
