    Please download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

    **Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**
    1. Please, never rename Combofix unless instructed.
    2. Close any open browsers.
    3. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
      • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
      • Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
      NOTE1. If Combofix asks you to install Recovery Console, please allow it.
      NOTE 2. If Combofix asks you to update the program, always do so.
      • Close any open browsers.
      • WARNING: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
      • Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
      • If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.
    4. Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    5. When finished, it will produce a report for you.
    6. Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt"
    **Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

    Make sure, you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix.

    DO NOT make any other changes to your computer (like installing programs, using other cleaning tools, etc.), until it's officially declared clean!!!

    ComboFix only runs under Win 2000/XP os. I have win 7 ultimate 32bit. Any suggestions? Not to mention that the infected pc is having trouble connecting to the internet now. I havent done anything to it since following the 8step and posting logs.
  4. Broni Malware Annihilator

    Combofix will run on Windows 7 32-bit
  5. joshuamays Newcomer, in training

    K. Heres what i was going to do. Save ComboFix to my good pc and copy it to a disk, but this one is actually 64bit. To recap, my infected pc is 32bit and my good pc is 64bit. I got an incompatible os message when i tried to download. I ran it initially as opposed to saving it if that makes a difference.
  6. Broni Malware Annihilator

    Well, you can't RUN it on good 64-bit computer.
    You can download it though on 64-bit computer like any other file.
    Why don't you download it on bad computer? Any problems with downloading?
  7. joshuamays Newcomer, in training

    Infected pc is now unable to connect to the internet. Im stuck at "connecting" when trying to access a page. Connection just stopped working. Ill just toss it to myself through a shared folder.
  8. Broni Malware Annihilator

    ..or you can use USB stick to transfer the file.
  9. joshuamays Newcomer, in training

    Outside the subject. Im having a hard time figuring out how to work file sharing with win 7 ultimate. im still new to the os. gonna take me a bit to figure this out. no usb stick to use unfortunately.
  10. Broni Malware Annihilator

    Since the bad computer may be still infected, I wouldn't play with file sharing.
    Go to the store tomorrow morning and get USB stick for a few bucks.
    Very handy on many occasions.

    * Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
    • When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows: OTL.txt and Extras.txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.

    It just seemed like this pc was running a little slower than it should. Only running a 2.21Ghz processor with a gig of ram.
