I know this is a re-post but since it’s system specific I’m making a post. I’m having the same issue as everyone else with it continually popping up. Any help would be much appreciated! Also while I’m here my firewall on avast stopped working as well. I’m assuming this is VPN related? I’m using a paid VPN service but still.
Note: You need to run the version compatibale with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them.
Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.
[*]Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
[*]Press Scan button.
[*]It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
[*]The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.
The FRST is attached in the original post, I’m trying to attach the addition log now and it is telling me that the file is too large. It’s only 91.1KB though.
Please download ZOEK by Smeenk and save it to your desktop (preferred version is the *.exe one)
Temporary disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware protection - instructions here.
[*]Make sure that Scan All Users option is checked.
[*]Push Run Script and wait patiently. The scan may take a couple of minutes.
[*]When the scan completes, a zoek-results logfile should open in notepad.
[*]If a reboot is needed, it will be opened after it. You may also find it at your main drive (usually C:\ drive)
I apologize I forgot to check back last night. I just rebooted and so far we’re good to go. It always happened at boot without fail and I have nothing so far! Firewall is back working again too.
[]Remove disinfection tools
[]Purge system restore
[*]Reset system settings
[*]Push Run and wait until the tool completes his work. All tools we used should be gone. Tool will create an report for you (C:[B]DelFix.txt)
The tool will also record healthy state of registry and make a backup using ERUNT program in %windir%\ERUNT\DelFix
Tool deletes old system restore points and create a fresh system restore point after cleaning.
