SecurityTool & Error 732

[Nyaru]

I've gotten infected with SecurityTool somehow, and I've been trying to use your software to get rid of it. It does find at least one file, and I remove the infections and restart as instructed.

...But SecurityTool is still here. Not sure what I'm doing wrong

also can't update, I get error 732, even after following the instructions on this forum to fix that error.

Hi, and Welcome to Malwarebytes!

First off looks like you are using an outdated version of Malwarebytes..... First try and install the latest version by following the instructons below for your operating system.....

If this still does not work to remove the infections follow the instructions listed below thin install instructions.....

Please try the following to see if it helps:

• Uninstall Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  
• Restart your computer very important

• NOTE: If you get SHGetValue failed with error code 0, that only means that the tool has nothing to perform, continue on with the next step....

• After the computer restarts, temporarily disable your Anti-Virus and install the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here

    Restart the computer again and verify that MBAM is in the task tray if using the Pro version. Now setup any file exclusions as may be required in your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/Firewall applications and restart your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security applications. You may use the guides posted in the FAQ's here or ask me and I'll explain how to do it.

If the above instructions did not work, then follow these:

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.

PS: Please use the "ADDREPLY" button instead of other ones when you start replying.
