This thing won't let me do anything. I can't use system restore, it won't let me access download pages for some anti-malware programs and it won't let me start the ones I can download. It also won't let me restart in safe mode.

I could really use some help. Thanks in advance.

Hello.
What tools have you downloaded right now? renaming them to a system filename should work.

I've been trying to use malwarebytes. How do I rename it to a system filename? I'm not sure what that means. I tried renaming it to another random word and that didn't do anything. It just keeps telling me it's infected.

Hello.
Giving it a random name won't work in this case, it has to be a system filename.

Rename it to winlogon.exe and see what happens.

Hello.
I have uploaded a renamed version of Hijack This.

Download this and see if it will run.

it worked. should I do a system scan and save a logfile or do a system scan only?

descriptionSystem Security 2009 EmptyRe: System Security 2009

Scan with logfile.
Paste the logfile back here.

"notepad.exe is infected." How do I get a logfile?

Try opening it with Wordpad instead.

descriptionSystem Security 2009 EmptyRe: System Security 2009

wordpad does not work either

descriptionSystem Security 2009 EmptyRe: System Security 2009

can I email the text document to myself and open it on another computer and post it or will I infect the other computer?

descriptionSystem Security 2009 EmptyRe: System Security 2009

Yes, that would work, it wouldn't infect the other machine since it's just a text file.

Hello.
Oh dear...

Your system is severly infected. Problem with these infections nowadays is, it causes a lot of damage. Even if we clean the malware off your system, I can't guarantee that your system will be clean afterwards, because these infections/bundles leave a lot of leftovers behind that most scanners won't even recognise and logs won't show.
Also, I can't promise you we can repair all the damage it caused... Even after cleaning the malware, you can still get errors afterwards because of the damage. Solving these is not always possible since it will be searching for a needle in a haystack to find the right cause and solution.
So, we can try to clean this up and do what we can, but keep in mind that we can't solve ALL problems this malware already caused.

In light of this it would be wise for you to back up any files and folders that you don't want to lose before we start. Reason I am telling this is because when a system is so terribly infected and we try to clean this up manually, the damage that is already present may interfere with our removal attempts.

  • Choose "Do a system scan only"
