Malware Crashes My Computer. Help?

[aloiv25]

Before I explain, I would just like to say I am not very familiar with these types of issues and my terminology may not be 100% correct.

1 day ago, I discovered I had a type of "virus" on my computer known as ZoomEx.exe. I immediately downloaded the free trial of Malwarebytes and removed it. I then even bought the pro version to prevent any further viruses from entering into my computer. After buying the pro version, I preformed a scan but before it could finish my computer would freeze out to the point where nothing was clickable and ctrl alt delete would not work. I would have to force a shutdown by holding onto the power button and restarting.

After restarting, I would boot the computer in safe mode with networking and remove all the threats quarantined and then restart to try to start my computer normally. Every time I tried, it would freeze at a black screen with the cursor. To solve this, I just preformed a system restore to a week ago and restart the process. In total, I tried this entire procedure 3 times.

Eventually I deleted just MalwareBytes and my computer went back to normal so it is clearly Malwarebytes causing my computer to crash. Any ideas why because I would like to continue using it considering I just paid for it but it seems like it is not compatible.

By the way, I do not have any of the previous logs after scanning.

I am using a Lenovo V570 with Windows 7.

Hello and welcome to Malwarebytes

Please run the following scanner and post back the logs and we'll see if we can determine what's going on.

Please run the following scanner and send back the logs.

Download DDS from one of the locations below and save to your Desktop

dds.scr

dds.com

Temporarily disable any script blocker if your Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware has it.

How To Temporarily Disable Your Anti-virus, Firewall And Anti-malware Programs

Once downloaded you can disconnect from the Internet and disable your Ant-Virus temporarily if needed.

Then double click dds.scr or dds.com to run the tool.

Click the Run button if prompted with an Open File - Security Warning dialog box.

A black DOS console should open and run for a moment.

When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:

1. DDS.txt
   
2. Attach.txt
   

• Save both reports to your desktop
  
• Please include the following logs in your next reply: DDS.txt and Attach.txt
  You can ignore the note about zipping the Attach.txt file in most cases.
  

Thanks

As I am trying to do it right now, the process has been over 5 minutes but yet, it says the scan should take no longer than 3 minutes. Is there a problem that might be occurring because my "green bar" has been stuck at the same spot for a while.

Did you disable your antivirus before trying to run this?
