"Kuaizipmount.bin" for bin files in my Windows Explorer


Recommended Posts

Hi guys. I recently was a victim of a malware attack after installation. Anyway, I already removed the threats with Malwarebytes and Adwcleaner. However, in Windows Explorer, the "type" still shows the annoying PUP, which makes me think I wasn't able to remove it fully. I wonder if there's a way to remove it. Thanks!

Thanks for those logs, continue with the following:

Download attached fixlist.txt file (end of reply) and save it to the Desktop, or the folder you saved FRST into. "Do not open that file"

Open FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt) or the folder it was ran from. Please post it to your reply.

Those entries are remnants left from previous infection, run the following:

Download and install CCleaner from here:

http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds

Make sure to go for the slim version it should have no unwanted extras that some free software may carry... 

Run CCleaner, from the main GUI Select > Cleaner > Run Cleaner > all temp files and caches will be deleted/emptied 

Next, 

Select > Registry > "Scan for Issues" > with all found entries checked select > "Fix Selected Issues" follow prompts to make back up and remove all entries...

When CCleaner is finished reboot - See if malwarebytes will now install
 
CCleaner is an excellent Utility and well worth keeping, bottom left hand corner of main interface is link "Online Help" use that link to get the full instructions for this very handy application.
Or have a look at this link: http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/features
