Hi,
I’m use avast anti virus on my laptop. I am using 8.1. My machine is HP Probook 4540s.
I have inserted my friend’s usb . after connecting it avast reminds me the virus detection reminder. My laptop was about about to turn off … when I start my laptop again since then cmd prompt opens and closes automatically for 2 or 3 secs. Is there malware/virus present in my laptop?? Kindly help me to fix this problem.
i noticed that my laptop speed is also affected too. Help me! :-[
Thanks

I’m going to guess that USB is infected.

Download MCShield from Here. It will come in handy.

THEN

Go Here

Download and Run: OTL, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware & aswMBR

Attach the following log files in your next reply.

  • OTL.txt
  • Extras.txt
  • aswMBR.txt
  • Malwarebytes.txt

Monitoring…

Sorry. TinHeadedEagle has informed me (I forgot) that aswMBR is not usable on Windows 8.1/8. So don’t run it.

Okay. One more thing malwarebytes is popping a notification like this
Malware blocked
path is C:\Program Files(x86)\uTorrent\uTorrent.exe
I have selected quarantine in action(in malwarebytes). Did I do right?
And sorry i deleted Extras.txt by mistake.

Hi,

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool by Farbar and save it to your desktop.

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.
[*]Under Optional Scan ensure “List BCD” and “Driver MD5” are ticked.
[*]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.

Oh. Tell me how can I get rid of this? :-[

Do you still have CMD flashing windows? About uTorrent you can add it to Whitelist. In MalwareBytes setting there is WebExclusion option. Add process and you’ll be fine.
