rigsby1208 Posted October 31, 2010 ID:337519 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hi I switched on my PC last week to find a black box on my windows background saying 'Your PC is infected' in big red writing. I then got a window popping up claiming to be Anti Virus 2010. The antivirus window would not close down very easily. I also had problems in internet explorer, with links being redirected to weird websites. Other problems included certain programs not starting eg Firefox, My Kaspesky internet security suite, task manager etc.After some advice I managed to run Combofix and also Malwarebytes, however they never seem to run very successfully, eg they hang, etc.My PC does seem a bit better after running them, Internet does not seem to be redirecting, but I still have problems opening or running programs. Its like elements of the malware have been removed but some parts remain.Can someone help me completely clear the infection, I have spent many hours battling with this? Thanks in advance.
