svchost.exe - unable to remove


Recommended Posts

Hello,

A friend of my dropped off his laptop with me as he advised it was "all messed up from a virus". Having previously dealt with this computer for my friend (teenage son uses same) I had already loaded Malbytyes on it. I ran a scan and came up with the svchost.exe trojan. I looked on your forums and attempted some previous fixes with no luck. As of last I had tried the RougeKiller.exe program which would freeze each time unless I unchecked MBR. Anyway, I won't bore you all with my non-computer lingo. I did download the DDS program, however, the only log I have available for view is the DDS. I have attached same. Thanks in advance - Tyler

Hello and welcome to Malwarebytes

If you think you are infected, here are the steps needed to get your computer cleaned....

Please read the following so that you can begin the cleaning process:

Don't use any temporary file cleaners unless requested - this can cause data loss and make recovery difficult

You have 3 Options that you can choose from as listed below:

  • Option 1 —— Free Expert advice in the Malware Removal Forum

OPTION 1

As we don't deal with malware removal in the
General Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Forum

    , you select

    so that you're alerted when someone has replied to your post.

NOTE:
Please do not post back to (bump) your topic within the first 48 hours.

Replying to your own posts changes the post count and helpers are looking for topics with zero replies.

If you reply to your own post helpers may think that you're already being helped and thus overlook your post.
