Stuck: Have Rootkit + Trojans: MWB wont install (stuck at RootRepeal scan): Need help with next steps


Recommended Posts

Hello, I have been battling a rootkit with Trojans for a few days now and am stuck. I cannot get MalwareBytes to install and have read the post on getting it to install/run, but am stuck at the point when scanning with RootRepeal and it says "MBR Rootkit Detected!" immediately when trying to scan.

Other facts: SpyBot S&D also will not install, Symantec says I have Trojan.Vundo and I am currently running the Symantec Trojan.Vundo fix in Safe Mode. HJT did install and will run, I have one log that I could post from HJT and could probably create a newer one if that helps. I have been trying to "Fix" the .dll that keeps reappearing using the HJT scan, its called "mobeteta.dll," but it just appears again when I do a new HJT scan.

I feel I need to get to the root of the problem but dont know what that is, from some other posts it seems that I will need to run ComboFix next but would like it if someone could walk me through my next steps.

I really want to save this system! Please help. Let me know what I can post to help troubleshoot.

Best Regards,

Scott
