Babu1982 Posted January 27, 2014 Author ID:783431 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Hi Borislav, I have last night completed the full scan using my current anti-virus and also ran HijackThis (as I had seen you advising to others on some other threads). The infection is on my mom's computer (who lives elsewhere). I will download MBAM and collect the logs tommorrow. By the way, do you see anything wrong with below line: O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [bcue] rundll32 "C:\Users\babu1982\AppData\Roaming\wiatracev.dll",IJLKHYSI I have no clue what wiatracev.dll is. Thanks,Babu Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babu1982 Posted January 31, 2014 Author ID:785148 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Sorry, I should have updated this forum. I was able to resolve this problem, all the systems seem to be gone and my computer works fine (from last 2 days). I will keep an eye on it though. So for the time being this issue can be considered closed from my side. Thank you for all the support and keep up the good work. Thanks,Babu P.S. I have bought 2 copies of PRO version of the MBAM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
