when i finish downloading and try to run them, they quit on their own less than mid way through. any help please?

i tried downloading the anti virus and and wen it finished, and i try to run the setup, it quits midway through. help please?

Note: applications that do not run to completion are most likely corrupt. Uninstall / re-install.
Safe mode with networking may be another work-around.


The exploit to frustrate reaching anti-malware sites is not understood by me at this time. 3 methods have been used recently. The second method references the third.

Since you are discribing a case of difficulty. attempt this method (follow link for 'How To')

• Use this method to stop any 'non-plug and play' driver you find.
• Please report its name for changes to the method

For infections that have more severe symptoms, Unable to run or update via TechSpot 8 Steps or manually run MBAM or SAS


Message #3 - link to 'fixit download' has demonstrated its effectiveness in many cases. Go to message # 3 'fixit download'

i couldn't find one that said tdsserv but the antivirus setups are still stopped.

my comodo firewall keeps asking to allow brs.exe and idk what it is, it also says tat superantispyware wants to access a lot of things, and i should press what? and also, i have this problem with administrator. it says my task manager and registry editting was disabled by administrator.

um my comodo firewall keeps asking me do i want to let zipper.exe to access things and i clicked allow and remember my answer because i'm updating the java but it keeps popping up and the java is loading more at all. what should i do?

alright i followed most of the 8 steps. heres my 3 logs, please have a look at them.

here r my 3 logs. i tried to follow the 8 steps as much as i can. im not sure did it upload my 3 logs but they're posted in another thread. "sagipsul spyware" im not sure was i suppose to be posting in tat thread so i think i might had to start a new thread.

Install Avira free Antivirus

Then..

Start up Malwarebytes again; Update it; then run a full scan (remove all found Malwares)
You need to run this multiple times, until all hidden Malwares are uncovered and removed

i tried running avira setup but it quits on me half way through.

Run CCleaner and try again

Otherwise run MSconfig and turn off all startups
Then restart, then try again

One other option: download the Windows installer package install it
Then restart, then try again
Windows installer has the download option:
Windows6.0-KB942288-v2-x86.msu 1.7 MB (for most of us)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

This virus blocks all access to malware fixing web sites, including
those built into the install .exe files. The virus blocks access to
many many sites, norton, Avg, sym,antec, microsoft, and even techguys.com. It
blocks access not only via browser, but any attempt to access,
like in install programs.

It does not block the NUMERIC IP address if you use that. BUT, the
install programs have built in refrence to alpha named locations. Thus,
the virus blocks attempts to install or even UPDATE malware scanner data bases
and updates.

I had to use GOOGLE's "cached" links to even see web pages in such
sites as symantec, norton, or techguys.

my firefox is now not working, not sure is it cuz of the virus.

Please uninstall Zone Alarm and...
Then uninstall Comodo Firewall
Restart, and test if Malwarebytes can then be downloaded updated scanned and attached

i cant uninstall zonealarm for some reason

Hmm I can't find a removal tool from ZA
Try this
Re-download ZA http://download.zonealarm.com/bin/fr...zaSetup_en.exe
Run the setup again
Then try un-installing it

it says something about it has to be logged into truevector to connect. then wen i try again, the setup doesnt work. btw, didnt i attach malwarebyte already?

ok another idea

Try Revo Uninstaller http://www.revouninstaller.com/

When the sagipsul virus blocks anti-virus or firewall or other tech sites,
it will cause installs, uninstalls, and reinstalls to fail if at anypoint
they try to access their home domain name over the internet.

Installs and even uninstalls may use access to the internet as a way to
grab files, lists of filenames, revision information, or database queries as
part of their process. I've seen the sagipsul virus (superjaun virus) block
access to microsoft, avg, norton, symantec etc. Not only blocking web
browser access, but blocking installs of virus scanners and removal tools
during an install. It should not be a surprise to find uninstalls of complicated
firewalls, anti-virus tools etc. to also access the internet to their home domain servers.

I'm concerned that some of these great ideas to fix the problem will be
to remove a tool (firewall, anti-virus, malware monitor) and then be faced with the inability
to reinstall it later, because the virus did not get removed by the next steps.

I think the procedure needs to first lift the blocking before dropping defensive shields
like firewalls and any existing malware/anti-virus tools. Otherwise, you may
end up with a PC still with the virus, and without any ability to defend against
other attacks and without the ability to install new defenses or reinstall old ones
because the virus blocks access to sites with the firewalls and anti-virus databases.

That's my fear.

Thanks for your info peteC
Presently we are in a thread trying to support the user with valid (or at least reasonable) suggestions to inevitably resolve the matter in full.

Now, how did Revo uninstaller go, in removing the corrupted ZA ?

it removed ZA but avira still doesnt work

SkyStep try Revo uninstaller on Avira as well
Note we are trying to fully remove all the corrupted programs

Once Avira is fully uninstalled, restart, and then reinstall it

setup didnt work so i dont have avira on my comp.

I'm not sure if you were able to remove Avira fully first (as you didn't say )
Try Free Antivirus like Avast instead

niether works. tried it many times, once i run the setup, it closes by itself.
