Malwarebyte and Hijackthis do not open


Recommended Posts

Hello! This is my first post here, but I got infected with the 2009 virus and I cannot remove it. I downloaded malwarebytes and hijackthis but they do nothing when I click to open them. I tried renaming the .exe file and got malware to install, but it would not update or launch after It finished the process. I looked in my plug and play drivers and could not find TDSSsys to delete or remove. Hijackthis does nothing at all when trying to install. Is there a fix for this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Note:

The
Windows Recovery Console
will allow you to boot up into a special recovery (repair) mode. This allows us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware. It is a simple procedure that will only take a few moments of your time.

Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:

The Recovery Console was successfully installed.

Please continue as follows:
  • Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  • Click
    Yes
    to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.

  • When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

  • Please post the
    C:\ComboFix.txt
    along with a
    new HijackThis log
    so we may continue cleaning the system.
