Infected with Malware


Recommended Posts

I had to have malware removed six moths ago which cost me $60 I installed Malwarebytes then and have had no problem till today when malware grabbed my laptop again even though I am running supposedly one of the best antimalware software out there.

I am using my dads computer and hoping some one will help. I tried running the Malwarebytes but the malware will not let me open it not download something like Threatfire. As a student I hate to pay $60 again and then what guarantees it willnot attack again? THANKS!!!

Welcome to Malwarebytes!

Please read the following so that you can begin the cleaning process:

As we don't deal with malware removal in the General Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Forum, you need to start a topic in the Malware Removal forum so a qualified helper can help you fix any malware related problems/infections you may have.

  • Please read and follow the directions here, skipping any steps you are unable to complete. Then post a NEW topic here.
  • After posting your new post, make sure under options, you select Track this topic and choose Immediate Email Notification, so that you're alerted when someone has replied to your post.
  • One of the expert helpers there will give you one-on-one assistance when one becomes available.
  • Please refrain from making any further changes to your computer (Install/Uninstall programs, use special fix tools, delete files, edit the registry, etc...) unless advised by a malware removal helper. Doing so can result in system changes which may hinder the attempts by a helper to clean your machine.

NOTE: Please DO NOT post back to (bump) your topic within the first 48 hours.

Replying to your own posts changes the post count and helpers are looking for topics with zero replies. If you reply to your own post helpers may think that you're already being helped and thus overlook your post.

    • If there is no reply from any experts after 48 hours, you can reply to the topic, asking for help again.
      Or
    • You may send a Private Message to a Moderator asking for assistance.

Alternatively, as a paying customer, you can contact the help desk at support@malwarebytes.org or here.

Please be patient, someone will assist you as soon as it is possible.

@ larryflorida -

Did you have the paid version of Malwarebytes active and running in the background , or did you just run a scan every few days/weeks , and 'hope' you may remove some infections after they are already installed -

Also did you have a good (reasonable) antivirus program active all the time -

If you said yes to both of these then you would not have these problems to start with -

Please excuse me if I am wrong in any of these items above -

We will still help to fully clean your computer for free as per instructions listed above by yardbird -

Thank You -

My daughter has the paid version of Malwarebytes purchased May 11, 2010 and AVG free version 9.0
