clanderson Posted June 23, 2012 ID:563714 Share Posted June 23, 2012 It all started lastnight when I noticed AVG had several popups saying something needed to be quarantined. I woke up this morning to more AVG notices. I did a full scan with MBAM, but received a weird error from MBAM (should have noted it down) that did not cause the scan to stop, but just worried me. I then got a blue screen from Windows saying that a something about a critical process, and that it needed to shut down to prevent more damage. It restarted, I scanned with MBAM and found several more issues - I removed them and restarted my computer. I noticed things were still funky. I got more AVG popups, and Opera browser was not loading things correctly. I tried posting this message via Internet Explorer but it kept closing on me before I could finish this post!! I'm now on my laptop giving my infected computer a death stare.I did another scan with MBAM and it found MORE threats - I think I can keep scanning and restarting, and the threats would never disappear!!The protection module is disabled somehow, and when I try to enable it, I get an error message (see attached image). I tried using rkill.exe but it just gives me that blue screen saying my computer needs to shut down before any damage occurs.Note: I also scanned with AVG a couple times, and it found threats that I quarantined/removed.HELP?? PLEASE? Gah!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
