Rootkit problem, help please!

Hi,

I really hope someone can help me.

I have been getting the following warning everytime I boot up the computer. I have followed the instructions and have done a boot scan 3 times now but it is still there. It is showing as: svc:epsonst win32 evo-gen(susp)

I really am not very computer savvy so will need my hand held a little. I will follow the instructions as laid out on the home page and hope I do it right. :slight_smile: Do I just post the reports in here?

Please follow these instructions: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

Removed.

Do NOT copy/paste the logs, ATTACH them.

Oops! So sorry, told you I was a novice. What do I save the report too or can I just attach it from notepad/ Ok sussed it.

Result of malware scan.

What is the file name that Avast is reporting ?

Is this what you require:

svc. epsonsta win32 evo-gen(susp)

OTL/ Extra report

Do you have an Epson printer perchance ?

Yes!

aswMBR report.

Thanks Eddy for checking this out for me. I hope I’ve done it all ok.

OK for some reason Avast is picking up on the printer service… Do you get offered the ignore option

Not sure, but I think so.

If you do then select that, the service is safe

Eddy, thank you so much for your help, it’s really appreciated! :slight_smile:

You’re welcome,
