Trojan that comes back after restart (HJT/MBAM logs inside


Recommended Posts

Hello all, so I am having some problems with some sort of trojan or virus. It started last night with an error message saying some sort of windows service could not start and each time I restarted more error messages would appear. I ran a full scan of malware anti bytes and removed the entries twice, once just from my desktop and once in safemode. After running it in safemode and removing the entries I tried to start windows and windows (vista) said that it could not be activated and partial functionality was restored, meaning I had a web browser and nothing else. I got back to regular windows by loading last known good configuration. So any help is appreciated.

Also when I scanned with malware antibytes this time it didn't show up, but last time backdoor.bot was also one of the listed infections.

If you require more info don't hesitate to ask. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
