Rahkan Posted November 3, 2011 ID:491415 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I had MBAM installed first thing on this machine after a harddrive failure and it ran A-Okay. After about a month or so I noticed it wouldn't boot up, thought nothing of it untill recently when I figured there was malware on my PC. I searched your forums for solutions, did a scan at ESET Online I believe? It found two Malwares called Win32/OpenCandy which is kindly removed and that allowed me to install MBAM again but I cannot run it. Your DDS doesen't seem to work for me, it'll start and then stop about 3/4 of the way through its scan. Any suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahkan Posted November 3, 2011 Author ID:491477 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Update, apparently Win32/OpenCandy wasn't removed. Could I get any help on removing this guy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahkan Posted November 4, 2011 Author ID:491635 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Okay apparently Win32/OpenCandy is an Adware used by Winamp and poses little to no threat to the system.Attempted to run Malwarebytes and it refuses to boot up. Something apparently is stopping it from running, ESET doesen't see anything other than that harmless adware. SpyBot doesen't see anything wrong and Avast is still scanning. Reinstalled Malwarebytes, no go there. Uninstalled, used Mbam-clean.exe to clean the program completely off my PC and followed through with a registry cleaning with CCleaner. Reinstalled MBAM and no go in running, have attempted to run it in safe mode and it gives me this error... Any suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff screen317 Posted November 9, 2011 Staff ID:493018 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Hi and welcome to Malwarebytes.Download DDS by sUBs and save it to your Desktop.Double-click on the DDS icon and let the scan run. When it has run two logs will be produced, please post only DDS.txt directly into your reply. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
