Bloodloss Posted April 9, 2008 ID:15890 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi, i've used your program recently to remove a spyware problem from one of my machines and yes, while it has cleaned the system, i can no longer use the system at all.Basically, when I start up my system now, I get "error loading (path here) shell.exe". Also, starting regedit and msconfig I receive the message "error loading (path here) batsbilkbqd.sys"Any clues as to what is going on there?RegardsBlood.

JeanInMontana Posted April 9, 2008 ID:15894 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi Bloodloss and welcome to Malwarebytes. Have you tried doing a system restore? Or repair install? I can't find the one file you mention in any searches are you sure it's spelled correctly? When you say you can't use the system at all, will it boot?

Bloodloss Posted April 9, 2008 Author ID:15895 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi Bloodloss and welcome to Malwarebytes. Have you tried doing a system restore? Or repair install? I can't find the one file you mention in any searches are you sure it's spelled correctly? When you say you can't use the system at all, will it boot? Hi there and thanks for the welcome. It's much appreciated!!Yes, the files I mentioned are spelt correctly! I've not been able to find references to it either.... Perhaps I could send a copy of the report I get from my second system that I'm working on?The files I mentioned seem to have been added by the offending program and are used to execute further instructions (reproduction of the offender perhaps?) on detecting msconfig or killing a process with the task manager.I'm not 100 percent sure. But I would like to open these programs without the error reference popping up and refering to files no longer there!Any clues?Many regardsThe system does boot yes, but trying to run programs like msconfig/taskmanager/regedit all point to this file that no longer exists... to me, that's unusable... (sorry about the lack of clarity there....)Blood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanInMontana Posted April 9, 2008 ID:15905 Share Posted April 9, 2008 OK since you can boot. We can do some analysis.
