The Security Tool malware hit my computer today…I read all the previous posts here about removing it but they did not work for me…I went to bleepingcomputer.com and followed their instructions but Security Tool was not removed…
I have Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware on my computer but it will not run…when I click on it, I get the fake Security message…I ran it in Safe Mode and it found 1 file infected with Security Tool, but even though it says it was removed successfully, when I boot up my computer is still infected with ST…
I went to bleepingcomputer.com and, as per their instructions, I downloaded rkill…however it would not work…here’s the log from that:
This log file is located at C:\rkill.log.

Ran as J Faulkner on 07/30/2010 at 17:54:34.
Processes terminated by Rkill or while it was running:
C:\Users\J Faulkner\AppData\Local\82542.exe
C:\Users\J Faulkner\Desktop\rkill.com
Rkill completed on 07/30/2010 at 17:54:37.
After this message comes up, ST opens and begins to run…
I went ahead and download Malwarebuytes and changed the name to Explorer.exe and it would not run…
I don’t know what else to do…please help…!!
If it matters I have a Toshiba Satellite with Windows 7 OS
