Broni

Thanks for your help so far, Broni - just a point of clarification: I am not addressing YOU when I said it wasn't cool the Avast link had an affiliate tracking cookie on it, it's a techspot thing from what I can tell, so I hope I didn't come off as challenging your recommendation. I really appreciate your help in all this, so far things are looking really good.

I've been following some of your tuts here in the forum - very cool of you to help out. Daly City, huh? Used to live in Vacaville, applied to a gig working for Daly City back in the day. That place is packed - but have some friends out that way (or used to). Anyhow, just wanted to say thanks for taking time with people.

Thanks Broni for all your help.....I have made a donation.....$$$ well spent

Hi Broni! I came across your post (http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/sirefef-removal-60-seconds-reboot.181609/) and found it quite interesting and helpful. I Just discovered I am also infected with the Sirefef virus. When I installed and ran MS essentials it also caused my computer to reboot after 60 seconds. Im running Win 7 Pro 64. Thanks for any assistance and knowledge you can throw my way

Hi Broni... I have a major problem on my hands; I fell for the fake install programme which I think is called SIREFEH (or something like that); My MSE didn't pick it up, and when it eventually did it has been restarting my computer every moment I switch it on. I have no idea what to do next, however I have managed to conduct scans using FRST

I could use some help. Read through your article (http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/windows-has-encountered-a-critical-error-will-restart-in-one-minute.184070/) and have gone through the first steps. I have both logs and wanted to know if you could help?

Thx a ton Broni for your patience and time :) :) :)

Broni,
I also am infected with sirefef and stumbled on one of your logs where you successfully helped someone remove it. I was hoping you would help me as well. I appreciate any advice you can give me. Thanks.

Thanks for all your help today--I have sent you a donation. Hope this helps you to continue providing top-notch help to everyone in need, and promptly, at that :) . I wish you all the best! ;)

Hi Broni,
it seems my computer is infected with sirefef
I noticed that you have been successful helping people eliminate it. I was hoping you could help me too.
Thank you.

hello broni - i already have a thread open but the gentleman who is working with me has left me hanging too many times... i pleaded with him to let me know if he was to busy to handle this to the end and he suddenly became active for a little bit and disappeared again. http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/computer-reboots-too-fast-to-run-any-scans-vista-home-premium-x64.182735/ ... help

Hey,Broni..!
I'm new to this forum. i got the problem of sirefef.ah and sirefef.r. Also recently my Pc is affected with error code 0x80070424 and i was unable to cure it, due to that error,i cant access and turn on microsoft security essential and windows firewall. Please do help me friend. Thanks to you.

Hello Broni, apologies for not being active for my malware thread ( http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/a-svchost-exe-malware-help-blue-screening.181521/#post-1188716 ). Can you please re-open my thread? I was busy with schoolwork and am ready back to focusing on this problem now. I have the FRST log that you requested. Thanks Broni.

Hi Broni, my name is Spencer and i've seen all the help you've been able to provide to people suffering from sirefef attacks and was wondering if you could help me out. I have the sirefef.W trojan and rootkits that have stopped defender, firewall and MSE, and after an MSE reinstall, I keep getting the 1 minute reset error even in safemode. Any help you could offer would be a big help.

Hi Broni, I haven't been in town for the past few days. I am back now ready to fix this laptop. Could you please reopen my thread please? Thanks! ( http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/a-hjt-log-bad-audio-virus-of-some-sort-help.181943/#post-1189358 )

- I have all the logs done and ready for uploading.

Hey Broni,

In case no one's seen it yet, user John Senchak just posted someone's CC info (or purports it to be) in the thread "PayPal freezes VPN provider's account, spooked by BitTorrent".

Just thought you should know.

Best,
Raswan

Hello Broni. My name if Frank and I was impressed with the help you gave another member. I was hoping you could help me as well. My computer was infected by a S.M.A.R.T. drive virus. I spent most of yesterday recovering the computer and removing the virus. I'm concerned there might be a left over root kit/virus/etc. Can you help me go through my computer and make sure it's all clean? Thank you.
