kevinf80 replied to Aellion's topic in Resolved Malware Removal Logs
Hello again Aellion, The infection was some kind off hijacker that makes outbound calls from your PC to its website, Malwarebytes did its job and blocked those calls. We successfully removed the infection with FRST. I`m not 100% sure where the infection came from but be aware P2P programs and applications are are known prime conduit for such infections. To clean up: Right click on FRST here: C:\Users\Lordgoofox\Desktop\FRST64.exe and rename uninstall.exe when complete right click on uninstall.exe and select "Run as Administrator" If you do not see the .exe appended that is because file extensions are hidden, in that case just rename FRST64 to uninstall That action will remove FRST and all created files and folders...

Hello Jeff23, Those permissions are exactly as they should be, so we are just not finding the problem... If this was my PC I would now go for a system refresh, that is all your personal stuff would be saved and Windows reinstalled.. Unfortunately any programs/software you`ve installed yourself would be lost and need to be reinstalled. How do you feel about that option...?? Kevin...

Thanks for the update, we need to close out that special account for now.... Select Windows key and X key together, from the list select "Command Prompt (Admin)" At the prompt type or copy paste net user administrator /active:no select enter. Close out and reboot. Next, Open Regedit, select this key "Hkey_Current_User" then select "Edit" then "Permissions" In the new box select your user account that has admin status.. Does "Full Control" show as allowed..? Next, Highlight this key "Hkey_Local_Machine" then select "Edit" then "Permissions" In the new box that opens select the Administrator account... Does "Full Control" show as allowed..?

Maybe your account is having permission issues.. Try the hidden Admin account, see if that makes any difference.. Select Windows key and X key together, from the list select "Command Prompt (Admin)" At the prompt type or copy paste net user administrator /active:yes select enter. Close out and reboot, you will see a new account "Administartor" select it and follow the prompts through. When that account is set see if you can merge WinDefend.reg
