Blade81 Posted June 6, 2010 ID:262918 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Hi,1. Download Bootkit Remover (note: it's a RAR archived file so you have to install compatible program, like 7-Zip if there's not one installed).2. Extract the contents to own folder (BRemover folder) on your desktop.3. Click start->run->type cmd.exe and press enter.4. In command prompt type this (I assume you extracted folder contents to BRemover folder on your desktop):"%userprofile%\desktop\Bremover\remover.exe" >"%userprofile%\desktop\logit.txt"5. Press enter once more to bring cursor back visible after entering the command above. After that operation there should be logit.txt file on your desktop. Attach it to your post, please.

Blade81 Posted June 7, 2010 ID:263250 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Well congrats, it appears your system is all clean Are you still noticing any problems? If not, it's time to secure your system to prevent against further intrusions.THESE STEPS ARE VERY IMPORTANTLet's reset system restoreReset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows.

Please go to the windows update site to get the critical updates.If you are running Microsoft Office, or any portion thereof, go to the Microsoft's Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update.Make your Internet Explorer more secureThis can be done by following these simple instructions:From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.Click once on the Security tabClick once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.Click once on the Custom Level button.Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to PromptChange the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to DisableChange the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to DisableChange the Installation of desktop items to PromptChange the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to PromptChange the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to PromptWhen all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.The following are recommended third party programs that are designed to keep your computer clean. A link as well as a brief description is included with each item.hosts file:Every version of windows has a hosts file as part of them. In a very basic sense, they are used to locate webpages. We can customize a hosts file so that it blocks certain webpages. However, it can slow down certain computers. This is why using a hosts file is optional!!Download it here. Make sure you read the instructions on how to install the hosts file. There is a good tutorial here If you decide to download the hosts file, the slowdown problems can usually be avoided by following these steps:Click the start button (at the lower left hand corner of your screen) Click run In the dialog box, type services.msc hit enter, then locate dns client Highlight it, then double-click it. On the dropdown box, change the setting from automatic to manual. Click ok[*]Run Secunia vulnerability check here and fix its findings.Just a final reminder for you. I am trying to stress these two points.UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!! Make sure you do this about every 1-2 weeks.Make sure all of your security programs are up to date.Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.Once again, please post and tell me how things are going with your system... problems etc.Have a great day,Blade Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
