Malwarebytes Not Installing | Possible Virus


Recommended Posts

Ok, so after tyring to install MalwareBytes and the program not installing, I found the necessary instructions and am now posting the results for review..been seeing a high CPU useage and thought it might be 'virus related' and wanted to get a 2nd opinion, seeing as I don't always trust Avast and so I wanted to use MalwareBytes.

 

Thanks for any help!

Hello and post-32477-1261866970.gif

 

P2P/Piracy Warning:

 

   

If you're using Peer 2 Peer software such as uTorrent, BitTorrent or similar you must either fully uninstall them or completely disable them from running while being assisted here.

Failure to remove or disable such software will result in your topic being closed and no further assistance being provided.

If you have illegal/cracked software, cracks, keygens etc. on the system, please remove or uninstall them now and read the policy on Piracy.

 

Next,

 

Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.

 

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system (32 bit or 64 bit). If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

  • Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Press Scan button.
  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please copy and paste it to your reply.
  • The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.

 

Post those logs..

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop, or the folder you saved FRST into.

NOTE. It's important that both FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

 

Run FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait.


The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post it to your reply.

 

Next,

 

Download AdwCleaner by Xplode from here: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ and save to your Desktop.

 

  • Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool.
  • Vista/Windows 7/8 users right-click and select Run As Administrator
  • Click on the Scan button.
  • AdwCleaner will begin...be patient as the scan may take some time to complete.
  • When it's done you'll see: Pending: Uncheck any elements you don't want removed.
  • Now click on the Report button...a logfile (AdwCleaner[R0].txt) will open in Notepad for review.
  • Look over the log especially under Files/Folders for any program you want to save.
  • If there's a program you want to save, just uncheck it from AdwCleaner.
  • If you're not sure, post the log for review.
  • If you're ready to clean it all up.....click the Clean button.
  • After rebooting, a logfile report (AdwCleaner[s0].txt) will open automatically.
  • Copy and paste the contents of that logfile in your next reply.
  • A copy of that logfile will also be saved in the C:\AdwCleaner folder.
  • Items that are deleted are moved to the Quarantine Folder: C:\AdwCleaner\Quarantine
  • To restore an item that has been deleted (if necessary):
  • Go to Tools > Quarantine Manager > check what you want restored > now click on Restore.

 

Next,

 

Please download RogueKiller from here:

 

http://www.sur-la-toile.com/RogueKiller/RogueKiller.exe  <- 32 bit version

 

http://www.sur-la-toile.com/RogueKiller/RogueKillerX64.exe  <- 64 bit version

                                     

  • Make sure to get the correct version for your system.
  • Quit all running programs

    RKLicence.png
     
  • Ensure MBR scan, Check faked and AntiRootkit are checked
  • Select Scan
     
    RK1A.png
     
  • When the scan completes select Report, copy and paste that to your reply.
     
    RK2A.png
     
  • The log should be found in RKreport[?].txt on your Desktop
  • Exit/Close RogueKiller


     
    Next,
     
    Download Security Check by screen317 from either of the following:
    http://screen317.spywareinfoforum.org/SecurityCheck.exe or http://screen317.changelog.fr/SecurityCheck.exe

You do not include Fixlog.txt from FRST fix, can I see that log. RogueKiller shows no infection, is your system responding OK, see if you can install/run Malwarebyes:

 

Download Malwarebytes from the following link and save it to your desktop.:

 

 

http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php 

 

Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.


Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan.
The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. (See Extra Note)
Please save the log to a location you will remember.
The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
Copy and paste the entire report in your next reply.

Extra Note:

If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.

No threats found..but still can't install the basic Malwarebytes software..

 

following video shows the install process...

 

 

As of right now, I'm not seeing the high CPU usage I was the other night..when it was up over 90%...not having any other issues, so I guess the laptop is fine for now...unless there's another suggestion you can think of as to why Malwarebytes is not installing...Avast isnt' even catching it, so I can't assume it's related to that!

Avast requires on access protection turning on, The alert for Java is incorrect, you have the latest version.

 

Next,

 

We need to remove FRST, first it is very important to deal with its Quarantine folder using FRST itself..

OK, we continue:

Delete any fixlist.txt file previously used, continue:

 

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop, or the folder you saved FRST into.

NOTE. It's important that both FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

 

Run FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait.

The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). That will confirm the removal action, delete if successful. 

 

Next,

 

Uninstall adwcleaner.exe

  •   Please close all open programs and internet browsers.
  •   Double click on adwcleaner.exe to run the tool.
  •   Click on Uninstall
  • Click Yes at Would you like to Uninstall Adwcleaner

 

Next,

 

  • Download OTC by OldTimer from here http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTC.exe or here http://www.itxassociates.com/OT-Tools/OTC.exe and save to your Desktop.
  • Double click OTC_Icon.jpg icon to start the program.
    If you are using Vista or Windows 7 accept UAC
  • Then Click the big CleanUp.jpg button.
  • You will get a prompt saying "Begining Cleanup Process". Please select Yes.
  • Restart your computer when prompted.
  • This will remove tools we have used and itself.

 

Next,

 

Create a new restore point:

 

   1. Right-click on Computer and go to Properties.

   2. Next click on the System Protection link.

   3. The System Properties dialog screen opens up and you will want to click on Create.

   4. Type in a description for the restore point which will help you remember the point at which it was created. Click on create.

   5. You should see the message "The restore point was created successfully

 

To remove all but the most recent restore point do the following:

 

   1.      Open Disk Cleanup by clicking the Start button 4f6cbd09-148c-4dd8-b1f2-48f232a2fd33.jpg. In the search box, type Disk Cleanup, and then, in the list of results, click Disk Cleanup.

   2.      If prompted, select the drive that you want to clean up, and then click OK.

   3.      In the Disk Cleanup for (usually C:\) dialog box, click Clean up system files. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

   4.      If prompted, select the drive that you want to clean up, and then click OK.

   5.      Click the More Options tab, under System Restore and Shadow Copies, click Clean up.

   6.      In the Disk Cleanup dialog box, click Delete.

   7.      Click Delete Files, and then click OK. Re-Boot your PC.

 

Let me know if those steps complete ok, also if any remaining issues or concerns...

What have you installed. Most tools and logs just need deleting, such as :-

 

RogueKiller and  folder RK_Quarantine

MBAR

Security Checks

Portable windows repair

DDS...

 

If all is ok with no issues here are some tips to reduce the potential for malware infection in the future:

 

Make proper use of your antivirus and firewall

 

Antivirus and Firewall programs are integral to your computer security. However, just having them installed isn't enough. The definitions of these programs are frequently updated to detect the latest malware, if you don't keep up with these updates then you'll be vulnerable to infection. Many antivirus and firewall programs have automatic update features, make use of those if you can. If your program doesn't, then get in the habit of routinely performing manual updates, because it's important.

 

You should keep your antivirus and firewall guard enabled at all times, NEVER turn them off unless there's a specific reason to do so. Also, regularly performing a full system scan with your antivirus program is a good idea to make sure you're system remains clean. Once a week should be adequate. You can set the scan to run during a time when you don't plan to use the computer and just leave it to complete on its own.

 

Install and use WinPatrol from here http://www.winpatrol.com/download.html  This will inform you of any attempted unauthorized changes to your system.

 

WinPatrol features explained here http://www.winpatrol.com/features.html

 

Go here http://www.filehippo.com/updatechecker/ run the FileHippo Update Checker, update all applications as suggested by the Update Checker. Ignore any Beta updates. (Use stand alone version, not a full install)

If Java or Adobe are updated please check under Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs, ensure any old versions are removed. <--- Very important

 

Use a safer web browser

 

Internet Explorer is not the most secure tool for browsing the web. It has been known to be very susceptible to infection, and there are a few good free alternatives:

 

FireFox http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/,

 

Opera http://www.opera.com/, and

 

Chrome http://www.google.com/chrome.

 

All of these are excellent faster, safer, more powerful and functional free alternatives to Internet Explorer. It's definitely worth the short period of adjustment to start using one of these. If you wish to continue using Internet Explorer, it would be a good idea to follow the tutorial here http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial102.html which will help you to make IE MUCH safer.

 

These browser add-ons will help to make your browser safer:

 

Web of Trust warns you about risky websites that try to scam visitors, deliver malware or send spam. WOT's color-coded icons show you ratings for 21 million websites, helping you avoid the dangerous ones:

 

Available for Firefox and Internet Explorer.

 

Green to go,

Yellow for caution, and

Red to stop.

 

 

Available for Firefox only. NoScript helps to block malicious scripts and in general gives you much better control over what types of things webpages can do to your computer while you're browsing.

 

These are just a couple of the most popular add-ons, if you're interested in more, take a look at this article:

http://browsers.about.com/od/addonsplugi2/tp/browser_security_privacy.htm

 

Here a couple of links by two security experts that will give some excellent tips and advice.

 

So how did I get infected in the first place by Tony Klein from here: http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/index.php?/topic/60955-so-how-did-i-get-infected-in-the-first-place/

 

How to prevent Malware by Miekiemoes from here: http://users.telenet.be/bluepatchy/miekiemoes/prevention.html

 

Finally this link http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/topic/38-free-antivirus-and-antispyware-software will give a comprehensive upto date list of free Security programs. To include - Antivirus, Antispyware, Firewall, Antimalware, Online scanners and rescue CD`s.

 

Don`t forget, the best form of defense is common sense. If you don`t recognize it, don`t open it. If something looks to good to be true, then it aint.

 

Let me know when its OK to close out your thread....

 

Take care,

 

Kevin

You were right...I just deleted the folders regarding all the software you've had me install regarding this issue..

 

I've done what you said and just deleted the folders and what not..

 

Currently use Firefox, so I'll focus on the related tools/apps for keeping my online surfing 'safer'..

 

Much appreciate all the help!

 

Feel free to close this out now!
