The_Executioner

Thanks Kevin, Good luck to you too!

Thank you for waiting Kevin. The Sophos scan ran for about 3 hours, however it didn't find any risk. I have attached the logs you requested. Since this morning after running the fix in FRST, the Bitcoinminer Activity 7 notification hasn't appeared. My laptop has also stopped overheating which started happening last week when the virus first appeared. Thank you for your help; I was really worried that I will have to format and factory reset my PC. What can I do to prevent such viruses from entering my PC in the future? Will the Norton 360 firewall be enough? Fixlog.txt SophosVirusRemovalTool.log

Hi Kevin, Thanks for reaching out to help me. I really appreciate it. I have attached all the logs you requested as .txt files. Thank you NS Addition.txt AdwCleaner Logs.txt FRST.txt MalwareBytes History.txt

Since the last week, after I was trying to install a software, I landed up at the wrong website. While everything seemed normal, it wasn't, the download installer was certainly a scam. It didn't install anything in-fact, my antivirus is consistently detecting an intrusion attempt titled - "Miner.Bitcoinminer Activity 7" every 10-30 mins. I use Norton 360. I have tried everything in my power and based on similar threads in the forum. I used Norton Power Eraser, Adwcleaner, RogueKiller, nothing seems to work. The warnings persist. My laptop is also getting more heated than usual. The source of the intrusion seems to be from a folder \DEVICE\HARDDISKVOLUME9\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64\WCN\S-1-5-77\TIWORKER.EXE. I have attached the recent history logs from Norton. I request someone to please help me remove this. Nothing seems to work, and I won't be able to make any payments with my PC till this gets sorted.
