  1. As I stated earlier in the thread, I originally ran a Malwarebytes scan when the system was blanking the screen, it did not find anything. Internet Explorer and Firefox were also continually asking me to update my java. However I knew it was up to date and confirmed it by going directly to the site (I never follow links from Popups) and confirmed I had the most recent Java. I reviewed my installed programs and found "ScorpionSaver", which I had not installed (I am very careful to make sure I never use default installs)I removed it several times using Revo Uninstaller Pro in its most aggressive mode to clean out any registry entries. It still came back. I then updated my "Malwarebytes" definition file which was 3 days old. It found some entries by "Adpeak" I had them removed which I mentioned in one of my earlier posts. I even followed up making sure any registry entries with "ScorpionSaver" or "Adpeak" had been removed. I searched for any instances of "ScorpionSaver" and found none. A few days later my computer screen started blanking out again, I searched again and found "ScorpionSaver.msi" in the C:\Temp directory. I deleted it, cleaned out the registry again and the screen blanking went away. I came back on this forum and started to follow your steps. The initial "RogueKiller" cleaning removed the two items you suggested and it must have worked, because it has not come back. I followed your other steps to make sure I have not missed anything. I have worked with computers a very long time and have dealt with many Trojans, Hijacks, etc. This was the first time that a problem came back after running malwarebytes, combofix, TDSkiller, etc. I had never used the tools you suggested and RogueKiller was impressive. I am keeping my eyes peeled for any return or performance issues. If it does not come back in a couple of days I will update this post. In the meantime I want to thank you and want to let you know I really appreciate the help and if it is gone I will make a donation. James
  2. MrCharlie thankyou... I have done as you requested and had RogueKiller delete the registry entries. I did not find the files you mentioned under the files tab, so I did a search with Windows Explorer and found "Lastpass" and "Lpunin*.exe" I renamed them and moved them to the Recycle bin for deletion after your confirmation. Nothing new should have been under the Sparky profile, since I just keep that on there in case my profile becomes corrupt or infected. Here is the information you requested from Farbar FRST.txtAddition.txt
  3. Well it's back I have the files you requested and I will try to attach them. RKreport0_S_10292013_174435.txt attach.txt dds.txt
  4. Well as they said in the movie Independence day "It's back". Malwarebytes managed to clear it but a few minutes ago my screen started blanking every 5 or 6 seconds. I looked for the ScorpionSaver folder in the Programs 86 folder and it was not there yet, however I found the "ScorpionSaver Install file" in my temp directory. I deleted it but I am sure it will return. So I will be following the steps outlined above.
  5. MrCharlie, Thank you for your quick response. Right after I left the message last night I downloaded the latest update from Malwarebytes (mine was 3 days old), I ran it all night and it found another component "Quality Level" by adpeak(same company). Malwarebytes removed it and so far I am clean, I will update this forum by tomorrow if I stay clean. It usually returned within a few hours. I want to wait to see if it is really gone. James
  6. I have recently been infected with "ScorpionSaver". Malwarebytes did not find it, McAfee did not find it, uninstalled it with Revo Uninstaller Professional but it keeps coming back. I have Run CCleaner, Combofix, Junkware removal tool, TDSskiller, Adwcleaner, removed all entries of scorpionsaver and it's company from registry, it stays away for a few hours then comes back. Please help
