Hi,

I've just done a scan with Avast and it's found 18 viruses(trojans, worms) that it can't remove.

I'm on Windows 7 Service Pack 1. I've done a boot-time scan with avast too but it doesn't pick anything up.

I was hoping someone could give me some advice.

Thanks in advance,

Please stop the GMER scan and go on with DDS.

Then follow with these:
Please note: If you have previously run Combofix and it's still on the system, please uninstall it. Then download the current version and do the scan: Uninstall directions, if needed
  • Click START> then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
--------------------------------------
Expect these- they are normal:
1. If asked to install or or update the Recovery Console, allow. (you will need internet connection for this)
2. Before you run the Combofix scan, please disable any security software you have running.
3. Combofix may need to reboot your computer more than once to do its job this is normal.

Download Combofix from HERE or HEREhttp://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe and save to the desktop
  • Double click combofix.exe

    & follow the prompts.
  • If prompted for Recovery Console, please allow.
  • Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:
    • The Recovery Console was successfully installed.[/b]
    • Note: If Combofix was downloaded to a flash drive, the Recovery Console will not install- just bypass and go on.[/b]
    • Note: No query will be made if the Recovery Console is already on the system.
  • .Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs
    (If you need help with this, please see HERE)
  • .Close any open browsers.
  • .Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware
  • .If Combofix asks you to update the program, allow
  • When the scan completes , a report will be generated-it will open a text window. Please paste the C:\ComboFix.txt in next reply..
Re-enable your Antivirus software.
Note 1:Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
Note 2:If you receive an error "Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion", restart the computer.
Note 3:CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

I'm sorry for the inconveniece you had with the GMER entries. There was a glitch on the site that prevented the email feedback for a reply. I had left a reply recommending that you start a new thread- same subject with 'Attn: Bobbye.'.

Update and run Malwarebytes again, Skip GMER. Run DDS and leave the 2 DDS logs in next reply. The post you made about a problem with DDS seems to be missing. If you will refresh me on what that problem was, I'll help you work around it.

If you need the links for the scans again, you will find them here:
Preliminary Virus and Malware Removal.

When you have finished, leave the logs for review in your next reply .
NOTE: Logs must be pasted in the replies. Attached logs will not be reviewed.
