Avast foumd several high severity rootkits in regular scan mode. I couldn’t move them to the virus chest, delete or repair the infected files. I restarted the computer and Doss scan mode for avast kicked in asking me several options to either delete, delete all, move to chest, move all to chest, repair, repair all, ignore, or ignore all. I tried to delete, move to chest and repair, none worked what do I do? I am now running my computer in safe mode and doing another scan, when the program detects the viruses again, I just need to know what to do next? Thanks to all of you have replied to the other topic that was originally started earlier.

Sorry for not responding sooner but I have been in and out all day. This is the progress thus far. Please note I could not find another way to attach the report from Malwarebytes other than to copy and paste it. This is all the steps that I have done at this point. There is still something that is attacking this computer. As I am typing Avast has alerted me that something was blocked. Should I do the other steps past this point?

Hello, sorry for not responding sooner but I have been at work all day, so combating this problem has not been an easy task for me between yesterday and today for that matter. Let me recap here for a moment; after the rootkits were first discovered when it first brought me to the Doss reboot screen. I had called the free tech support shortly thereafter and to be perfectly honest, I didn’t think to have that information readily available. Which brings me to the next point, my computer has been off all day while I was at work, so I don’t know the condition of it at this time as I am using my laptop to communicate here. I have included all logs thus far except maybe the extended log for OTL (at least I believe it was OTL)…well anyway is there a way to find out by going into Avast archives on that computer to determine what they were? If not what next?
I am a bit frustrated at this point…if my memory serves me correct, I believe one of them was a win32. For the most part, after running the Malwarebytes program it indicated that only ONE was left from that point and that was a PUP32 or something like that. I have included the previous log from that scan as well as others. All I can ask is that if you would please review the attachments previously included and also the text from the screens that I included, if you tell me what to do next, I will follow it to a “T” from here on out I promise! I apologize as this is the first time I have ever had to seek help outside of what I already know…I am not a techie or savvy atl this stuff. With that being said, that doesn’t mean that I am not willing to learn! In advance, thank you again for all your help and assistance, you guys ROCK!!!

The aswboot log will be found here C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log this will show what was detected
If you run the OTL fix that will remove the remnants of the Win32 adware
No problem with questions we thrive on them here
