  1. I finally got it to work and THANK YOU!!! I thought I would post this in case you find it helpful for someone else. I was infected in apptdata\Google with a rootkit.win32.delf.al file. I was also getting that stupid pop up box trying to get me to download that defender program. NOTHING was picking that up. I ran: Spyware doctor Threatfire spybot my virus scan which is F-secure (whatever that means). My virus scan was telling me I had that rootkit virus but would not let me delete it, it was saying I didnt have permission! I installed Malwarebytes and ran the scan. It picked up the rootkit virus (trojan?) and also the defender pop up box file. It let me delete everything but the rootkit, so I rebooted it and it was still there. I ran my virus scan and this time it let my virus scan delete it. I dont know what Malwarebytes did but THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was a horrible drama that I spent 5 days on!!!! I'm wondering though how come it took me running malwarebytes before my virus scan could delete it? Also what does that virus/trojan do (had I not been able to delete it)?
  2. So I am infected with rootkit.win32.delf.af so as I was following directions that led me to you guys, I DL'd Malwarebytes and followed instructions on how to install. I was told to select "quick scan" but after 2 (!!) hours, its just still saying "Enumerating registry objects prior to scan" and under Currently Scanning, it is still saying "preparing for the scan". Is this normal? AHHHH!!!! Thanks in advance!
