Fantastical!

Were you able to get the attachment unzip it and run it,or did something else workout!

Now run mbam again and even again until it comes up clean posting log each time.

Don't quit now or drop out until we finish. OK?

Mike
 
mbam doesn't seem to come clean. there is always the same infection, just a different location. yes the fixit works great.
 
Good job but still a little work to do.

Run combofix post its log first an HJT always last never before running mbam or sas.

ComboFix

NOTE: If you have had ComboFix more than a few days old delete and re-download.

Get it here: http://subs.geekstogo.com/ComboFix.exe
Or here:[https://www.techspot.com/downloads/5587-combofix.html
Double click combofix.exe follow the prompts.

When finished, it will open a log.
Attach the log and a new HJT log in your next reply.

Note: Do not click combofix's window while its running. That may cause it to stall.

the two links you gave will not work - it says my interenet is not connected. I tried looking for combofix and found a few sites to download from, but upon downloading and running the installer, it says combofix can't be named combofix. any ideas?
 
Combofix should not need to be renamed.

Delete all combofix from computer.

I fixed the links go back and download from there and install.

Mike
 
alrighty..i have found a combofix to download and have started it, but it says it's in my best interest to get a windows recovery console. is that yes or no?
 
Hoo Ra Ra Ra

You did it! You were a slow starter but look what you did!

All clean.

Great job.

One other question? How is it running now?

I will post some Thread closing recommendations tomorrow as I am now headed to bed!

I will wait a few minutes for your answer on how running.

Mike
 
internet pages are loading quickly. I haven't tried google yet...but I should see if that's fixed. Thanx alot for all the help. I was just curious - do you get paid to be on here and help us dumbasses out? or do you do it for the challenge? oh btw the fixit thing you sent, i think it should be somewhat attached to the 8-step program....

I just tried google. it is fine. no more redirection....
 
No don't get paid. from here at least!

But I do this for a living have been for 30 years. I can tell you it is a lot easier in person.

I am a Systems Administrator and Network Administrator for 55 networks in 5 states comprising approx 740 workstations.

I could have fixed yours in 30 minutes of actual work (not counting the scan times).

I do it to give back to what has been good to me. And it also keeps me sharp as I like a challenge and I hardly ever give up! And I like helping people!

Thanks for the thanks, good night

Hi Lynk

You should edit and delete all you have posted in this persons thread and create your on thread and post your problem.

I or someone else will find and help you. This is called thread hijacking.

Additionally what you have posted is all wrong it don't work that way.

So get your own thread and we will start over.

Mike
 
No problem just click Edit on each post erase what you typed and type in its place.

Deleted typed in error!

Then create your own.

Mike
