Won't run MBAM, HJT or ComboFix


Recommended Posts

I have a rogue AV program that pops up, called 'System Security'. I cannot run MBAM (tried renaming), cannot run HJT, cannot install AVG, Combofix terminates with an error. Ran Smit FraudFix, but it didn't change anything. Stil infected.

Looks like a grand slam for the bad guys.
