I dont know what has happened but a box keeps popping up saying I have a trojan virus. Its from "personal antivirus" and not from Norton. When I do a system scan through norton nothing comes up as being wrong but this thing wont go away! I dont know what to do.

The malware anti malware is not working. I've downloaded the program but it freezes up right at the end of the setup phase. The icon is on the desktop but when I click it nothing happens. I have also tried right clicking the icon and hitting "run scan with Malware...." to no avail. I have even tried clicking the icon in the program file list in the start menu. I dont know what to do now. Grrr....

Hello.
Don't get angry, the log shows me the problem, but they won't stop MBAM on their own, so there's something else going on here. More than likely, there's rootkit activity on your machine.

  • Open HijackThis
  • Choose "Do a system scan only"
  • Check the boxes in front of these lines:


    O2 - BHO: &Helper - {2E59498D-7E44-4452-9044-0973B080B9E8} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\winexplorer.dll
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PAV] C:\Program Files\PAV\pav.exe
    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Power2GoExpress] NA


  • Press "Fix Checked"
  • Close Hijack This.

Reboot, then try running the MBAM setup now. See if it runs this time.
