Discussion in 'Virus and Malware Removal' started by MTilson, Dec 4, 2011.

  1. MTilson Newcomer, in training

    Ok. Thanks much for all of your help. Do I need to be concerned about how malwarebytes quick scan is never ending?
  2. Broni Malware Annihilator

    Try this....

    1. Uninstall Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware using Add/Remove programs in the control panel.
    2. Restart your computer (very important).
    3. Download and run this utility.
    4. It will ask to restart your computer (please allow it to).
    5. After the computer restarts, install the latest version from here.
  3. MTilson Newcomer, in training

    ok. Done installing.
  4. Broni Malware Annihilator

    See if quick scan will run.
  5. MTilson Newcomer, in training

    Ran it. When I got up over 8 hours later it was still running.

    I suggest asking at Malwarebytes forum: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/

    I have IObit Malware Fighter... how is that?
  8. Broni Malware Annihilator

    I'm not familiar with that program.
  9. MTilson Newcomer, in training

    The computer won't start in Safe Mode. I even tried Safe Mode with Networking... It's a continual loop... it keeps landing on the page where you choose which mode you want to start in, I pick, then it lands on that page again, over and over again.
  10. Broni Malware Annihilator

    Download SafeBootKeyRepair by sUBs and save it to your desktop.
    Double-click SafeBootKeyRepair.exe to run it.
    Follow any prompts that may appear then post the log it produces.

    Try safe mode now.

    Same results.

    In this forum, we make sure, your computer is free of malware and your computer is clean :)
    Because the access to malware forum is very limited, your best option is to create new topic about your current issue, at Windows section.
    You'll get more attention.
  15. MTilson Newcomer, in training

    Is it definitely free of malware even though it's presenting these problems?
  16. Broni Malware Annihilator

    I don't see anything malicious there.
  17. MTilson Newcomer, in training

    ok, Thanks Very Much!! : )
