BACKDOOR WARNING

One or more of the identified infections is known to use a backdoor.

This allows hackers to remotely control your computer, steal critical system information and download and execute files.

I would advice you to disconnect this PC from the Internet immediately. If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable, and it would be wise to contact those same financial institutions to apprise them of your situation.

Though the infection has been identified and can be killed, because of it's backdoor functionality, your PC is very likely compromised and there is no way to be sure your computer can ever again be trusted. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of trojan, the best course of action would be a reformat and reinstall of the OS. Please read these for more information:

When Should I Format, How Should I Reinstall

We can still clean this machine but I can't guarantee that it will be 100% secure afterwards. Let me know what you decide to do. If you decide to go through with the cleanup, please let me know.

I have the Malwarebytes Pro version, so I guess I am a paying customer and I am assuming that means I will be able to get support in that manner.  I have sent a customer service request, and referred to my invoice number.

 

I look at this and read it,  I have changed my banking account, there was only one online account fortunately on the computer.

 

If I do not hear back from their support in the next few hours, I will contact you to get the information to start this.  I would rather NOT try to completely reformat as I have many programs that I need to keep and I don't have all of the disks available.  

 

thank you for your help, this is ridiculous!!

 

~ Pat
