I didn't see an antirootkit scan option in AVG
That`s because you haven`t followed the instructions in this thread
HERE. The AVG Antirootkit programme is a completely separate and different programme from all the other AVG programmes. You`ll find the instructions in step11.
You haven`t posted a HJT log either.
Unless you follow the instructions properly, it just makes it that much harder for me to help you effectively.
You might want to copy and paste these instructions into a notepad file. Then you can have the file open in safe mode, so you can follow the instructions easier.
Boot into safe mode, under your normal user name(NOT THE ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT). See how
HERE.
In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how
HERE.
Run HJT with no other programmes open(except notepad). Click the scan button. Have HJT fix the following, by placing a tick in the little box next to(
if there).
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [DoNotDelete] C:\WINDOWS\system32\explore.exe
Click on the fix checked button.
Close HJT.
Locate and delete the following
bold files and/or directories(
if there).
C:\WINDOWS\system32\
explore.exe<Do not delete any other instance of this file.
Reboot into normal mode and rehide your protected OS files.
Post fresh HJT and Combofix logs and let me know the results of the AVG Antirootkit scan.
Edit: I`ve just seen your last post. I have to tell you now, your system is not clean and needs to be worked on.
Regards Howard
