(repost) I may have the 0 Day Java virus?

[Kaoruko]

Okay.. Um, I'll start off by saying that my responses to this thread will be slow because I do not have normal internet access on a daily basis. I

can at school, but to do so I have to use a VPN which doesn't always work; depending on the network load.

Anyway. I recently tried to update windows via Windows Update. Doesn't work.

I tried re-enabling the Windows Firewall service to check things out. Firewall won't stat and cannot change settings.

I tried to scan with MSE, but it only freezes and says the service is missing from the computer.

I have also attempted an offline and download Java Update, and every time I try to install (or uninstall previous versions) I get either an error.

I cannot do a system restore (catastrophic failures), and I also cannot run any "sfc" commands.

I did a quick and flash scan with Malwarebytes and it didn't reveal anything.

I first noticed signs of problems around Monday when my two brothers and I played Minecraft over my LAN network. (All three of us are on a laptop) They needed some mods to join my server, and my flash drives were at school where I left them the previous Friday on accident. When I tried to Share my public documents and C:\ Drive so they could copy my "mods" folder; i was told there were "no more Endpoints available from the endpoint mapper mapper", and any fixes I tried failed to remedy the issues.

Anyway; I will try my best to return and give any information requested as soon as I can.

Hello kaoruko,

Please stop whatever you are doing on -this- system and consider it to be in "quarantine".

No online games, no "sharing" with anyone, no fixes by yourself.

What is the Windows version on "this" system?

How about you copying and pasting the contents of the very last MBAM scan log.

That would help.

Why do you think the system is a victim of "Java zero day exploit"?

Older versions of Java pose a security risk.

And if you do not need Java for the programs that you use, keep Java off your system .

Let me suggest, if you're an MBAM customer, you contact the consumer help desk here.

If you are in an organization or a corporate customer, contact Corporate Support for assistance.

Otherwise, Please print out, read and follow the directions here, skipping any steps you are unable to complete.

Please Copy & Paste the contents of MBAM scan log & the DDS logs

Do you still need help ?
