Hi,
I am hoping someone can help me remove a very stubborn trojan from my computer.
Apparently it is called a DNS Hijacker, continually redirecting web pages to sites such as casinocaesar.com, oldhetaira.com, rpicamps.com, btcar.com, etc.
I have tried several anti-virus programs, but nothing works. The trojan also prevents my browser from opening certain anti-virus web sites ("The page cannot be displayed. The page you are looking for is currently unavailable")
This has also prevented me from carrying out all the steps in the Preliminary Removal Instructions, as I only have access to the one infected computer.
However, the following Preliminary Removal Instructions have been done:
Step 1 to Step 2: Done.
Step 3: Online virus scanner fails to complete, tried 3 times.
Step 4 to Step 9: Done.
Step 10: Tools 1 and 2 downloaded & run. Unable to download Tools 3 and 4.
Step 11: AVG Antirootkit programme does not report anything, but seems to terminate quickly after about 15 minutes. The programme shuts down and returns to the desktop, do not know if this is normal?
Step 12: Unable to download combofix.exe.
Step 13: AVG Antispyware log only shows 1 tracking cookie from Paypal. All else done.
I have attached the requested log file.
Thanks in advance for any help.
