Browser Malware/hypertext virus/slow Comp/unable to update

First, before we continue I would like to thank you for the continued assistance. Now back to the issue at hand. I have done the repair computer thing and system repair, system recovery. the system repair says everything is fine. the system restore only has 1 date and that was today at around 12pm. so that wont work and the problem persists. I eagerly wait your response. =D

And you still have the problems?

yes. I am unable to open programs like media player, winamp, games, etc... Unable to play music or videos. I am also not getting sound in any of those or my browser, cannot use copy paste on anything, notepad, word etc.... I have tried going to the microsoft website to download media player and my computer will not validate anymore. I believe this all happened when i did the combofix uninstall because right before that, with your help, my computer was running perfectly. Then i removed the combofixed as instructed and everything went wrong.

Then i removed the combofixed as instructed and everything went wrong..

This is the first time I've seen this happen. Please try this:

Please download and run the below tool named Rkill (courtesy of BleepingComputer.com) which may help allow other programs to run.
Save Rkill to your desktop.

There are 7 different versions. If one of them won't run then download and try to run the other one.

Vista and Win7 users need to right click Rkill and choose Run as Administrator


You only need to get one of these to run, not all of them. You may get warnings from your antivirus about this tool, ignore them or shutdown your antivirus.

* Rkill.exe
* Rkill.com
* Rkill.scr
* WiNlOgOn.exe
* uSeRiNiT.exe
* iExplore.exe
* eXplorer.exe
Once you've gotten one of them to run then try to immediately run the following.

i ran rkill and this is what it gave me in the log. i immediately tried to run a music file. it did not work.

I'm stumped. I'm going to get one of my colleagues to look at this.

K sounds great. i eagerly await your response.

At this point it's looking pretty much like you may have to do a compete Recovery of you system. You should start saving your important data to an external harddrive or DVD's.
