I am writing to report and obtain assistance in fighting BitCoin miners on my laptop. Their virus is invisible to Malwarebytes and it's early stage's only visible activity is a change of system time display by 5 hours and reading the system event logs. I have engaged Microsoft on multiple occasions with varying degrees of success. Google noted something wrong and sent me a modal window asking me to send them a file which I did. The last time Microsoft helped me the fixed worked until dual Booted to Ubuntu w/o install SpyBot Anti-Beacon software. The problem seems to predate my ownership of the laptop based on the event logs. I purchased the machine “new” from Dell online. The virus creates a disk partition that survives normal system restores and does not require a network connection to rebuild itself.
Logs are in a public S3 bucket , instructions are in the attached document.
