Keemstar Posted August 21, 2016 ID:1057542 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Hello Malwarebytes. I am suspecting that my PC is ratted because it wont go to sleep anymore (it wakes up again), my mom saw it yesterday going from screensaver to login screen and typing 4 characters in the pw field - my PC pw is 4 chars long.... I am booting from a SSD and I have a HDD also. Even though I reinstalled Win7 from Scratch recently, this is happening... I scanned my system with ESET and Malwarebytes, both say I'm clean. What should i do? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maurice Naggar Posted August 21, 2016 ID:1057615 Share Posted August 21, 2016 The FRST reports are normal. And the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware scn reported no malware. Those are all good. This pc does have ESET NOD32 Antivirus, a very fine antivirus. What has it said the last time you scanned? Do a new scan with ESET today and let me know the result. One cannot just assert some sort of infection when no security app has reported one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keemstar Posted August 21, 2016 Author ID:1057625 Share Posted August 21, 2016 It detected a bit of Adware. which comes when you download from chip.de - thats normal But I think we both know what FUD means.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Naggar Posted August 21, 2016 ID:1057640 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Awareness of the situations is good. But too much F U D is not always a good thing. Adware is not malware. Adware can be a very real nuisance and very difficult to remove. While we do identify and remove some adware variants, our main focus is on malware so there are many adware variants that we do not target (mostly for legal reasons as they do have a eula and an opt out feature in most cases) Please run the following: Please download AdwCleaner and save it to your desktop. from this link ATTENTION: After you click the Download Now button, another page will open - DO NOT CLICK any additional 'download now' buttons as they are sponsored advertisements. Please wait and look toward the top or bottom of your browser for the option to Run or Save. Click Save to save the file. Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool. Click the "Options" menu heading on the menu bar and uncheck "Reset Winsock Settings" Click on the Scan button. After the scan has finished... The contents of the Results section may appear confusing or as gibberish. Unless you see a program name that you know should not be removed,please continue with the next step. click on the Cleaning button. Press OK when asked to close all programs and follow the onscreen prompts. Press OK again to allow AdwCleaner to restart the computer and complete the removal process. After rebooting, a log file report (AdwCleaner[Cn].txt) will open automatically. n is the number of clean runs performed) Attach that log file to your next reply. A copy of that log file will also be saved in the C:\Program Files (x86)\AdwCleaner folder on 64-bit systems or folder C:\Program Files\AdwCleaner on 32-bit Windows. Please provide a fresh detailed status after all this is completed. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
