I’m not sure if I’m posting on the right place but anyways my computer recently got infected with a virus and avast got rid of it, but after a boot scan reveals that Alureon-K is on the computer. I read online some solutions but apparently i need to put the log from aswMBR.exe in order for you to help me but it never executes, the same problem with the TDSS killer. Is there another way to run the program or to show a log with the problem?
So neither TDSSKiller or aswMBR run
[*] Download RogueKiller and save it on your desktop.
[*]Quit all programs
[*] Start RogueKiller.exe.
[*] Wait until Prescan has finished …
[*] Click on Scan

I have just revamped the instructions for this infection, could you let me know if there are any problems or errors
I need you to download:
gparted-live-0.10.0-3.iso (115.1 MB)
Create a bootable CD, for Gparted from the ISO image.
You can use ImgBurn do this.
Now boot off of the newly created Gparted CD.
You should be here… Press ENTER
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Gpart-Start.GIF
By default, “do not touch keymap” is highlighted.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Gpart-keyselect.GIF
Leave this setting alone and just press ENTER.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Gpart-continue.GIF
Choose your language and press ENTER. English is default [33]
At the mode prompt enter 0, press ENTER
You will now be taken to the main GUI screen below
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Gpart-partitions.GIF
According to your logs, the partition that you want to delete is <1 MB
Right click this partition and select delete .
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/GPart-delete.GIF
The Partition has gone
Now select Apply
Now you should be here:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Areyousure.GIF
Select Apply after double checking that the right partition was deleted
Is “boot” next to your OS drive?
If “boot” is not next to your OS drive under “Flags”, right-mouse click the OS drive while in Gparted and select Manage Flags
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/GPart-flags.GIF
In the menu that pops up, place a checkmark in boot like the picture below, then close :
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/GPart-bootflag.GIF
Under File select Quit
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Gpart-quit.GIF
You will see this small Popup
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/Gpart-reboot.GIF
Choose reboot and then press OK.
Ok, I did what you told me, didn’t encounter any problems. What should i do now?
Were the instructions clear and easy to follow ?
Could you now run aswMBR please and follow up with a fresh OTL scan selecting all users
Also how is the computer behaving ?
Yeah, everything was in the exact order and with the screenshots made it more easier to know i was going on the right path.
The computer is now running faster, an error of the catalyst is no longer showing, the icons and programs are back, the search engine is not freezing anymore.
For the aswMBR is finally running, the quick scan log is the following,

Glad to hear that
OK lets now check for any remnants
Download OTL to your Desktop
[*]Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/OTL_Main_Tutorial.gif
[*]Select All Users
[*]Under the Custom Scan box paste this in
netsvcs
%SYSTEMDRIVE%*.exe
/md5start
services.*
explorer.exe
winlogon.exe
Userinit.exe
svchost.exe
/md5stop
CREATERESTOREPOINT
[*]Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
[*]When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
[*]Post both logs
The logs are attached
the other one…
Looks good, any problems ?
So far none… If i run now avast scan it should not find the alureon rootkit as a virus?
Nope aswMBR cleared the MBR sectors as good

Subject to no further problems 
I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems
Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean 
A good workman always cleans up after himself so…The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points:
Run OTL
[*]Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
:Commands [resethosts] [emptytemp] [Reboot]
[*]Then click the Run Fix button at the top
[*]Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
Run OTL and hit the cleanup button. It will remove all the programmes we have used plus itself.
We will now confirm that your hidden files are set to that, as some of the tools I use will change that
[*]Go to control panel
[*]Select folder options (Appearance > Folder options in category view)
[*]Select the View Tab.
[*]Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Do not show hidden files and folders.
[]Click Yes to confirm.
[]Click OK.

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:
http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/7729/mbamicontw5.gif
Malwarebytes. Update and run weekly to keep your system clean
Download and install FileHippo update checker and run it monthly it will show you which programmes on your system need updating and give a download link
It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated. To keep your operating system up to date visit
To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read our little guide How did I get infected in the first place ?
Keep safe 
The programs ran without any problems, the programs u said were eliminated, the computer seems to be running smoothly and updated the programs that needed to. I guess all that’s left to say is thank you, really made my day knowing that my computer was back to normal. I hope i don’t have to visit the site for more assistance hehe. Thanks 
My pleasure
