Hey there
Recently one of my other computers got infected with a bunch of rogue’s, root-kit’s, trojans…
The computer was used for small business things like organizing and such, so I didn’t think it would get destroyed. Sooo my uncle decided one day that it would be nice to do some naughty things on there and then leaving it in chaos.
The only tools I managed to get working on their was avast, everything else would not open. Avast’s chest is “broken” as it says when I try to open it, so I couldn’t do anything to the viruses I found from the boot scan. I rather not delete them without an expert’s consent (you guys) so I just left it for now.
You might remember one of my earlier threads, on my dad’s business computer that was also infected with the same thing. That was never solved so we all agreed to reinstall the entire OS since that computer was only used for security cameras and no data of importance. My other computer however, is a bit more important since it’s for their sales so I don’t want to give up this time.
On my earlier thread, someone mentioned to download and burn an ISO image to a disc and then boot the computer. I had it working for awhile, but after I thought we were finally safe, the computer ended up not even being able to get to the desktop so that’s another reason why we had to reinstall the OS…(If you’re curious, it was one of those live CD’s by DrWeb or something)
Safe mode works but the pop up’s still come in and stop me from opening any of my downloaded tools (i.e Spybot, MBAM, HJT, etc.)
Oh and here are some extra details:
-Again with Windows Genuine notifications…(black background, timer at start up)
-Obvious rogue program…(Malware Defence)
-Downloading things still work, as well as installation, but it doesn’t go any further after that.
-Avast was the only program that was installed and executed successfully, but on that computer, I haven’t registered avast on it yet.
-The system restore has no check points for some reason…
-Changed the black background to “Hello kitty” for a less disturbing environment.
Sorry if I typed too much, I don’t think I put enough details. But if you guys need any more, I’ll post it.
Thanks for reading, and also thanks in advance whether or not this problem gets fixed ;D
PS: There are a few avast logs, I think from the boot scan (not good with logs) but I was afraid to transfer it to my home computer (this one) or through email.
