Win32 Malware-gen

I’ve run several boot scans with avast, Safe Mode scans with SAS, Malware Bytes scans, etc. No luck removing this puppy. It’s my brother’s computer so I’m not even sure how he got it in the first place. If it helps, he’s running Win7x64

Attached the logs.

Try cleaning your temp files

Temp File Cleaner by OldTimer will clean all temp files
TFC requires a reboot immediately after running. Be sure to save any unsaved work before running TFC.

[*]Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
[*]Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.

Thanks

How is it running now ? Any problems ?

Well I only kept it for about 30 minutes after I used your fix, because I was leaving town for a couple of days. Avast didn’t pick anything up in that half hour. I gave it back to my brother and he’s been playing on it and hasn’t found anything, so I guess everything’s good now. Thank you.

OK get him to run OTL and hit the cleanup button to remove the programme ;D

Hi essexboy, I also had this virus on my windows 7 x64 and did the same work you suggested to another user and it worked perfectly! Thank you very much.

You really shouldn’t run fixes created for a specific users system and problem, they are unique. Which is why there is a specific warning at the top of it.

The problem needs to be fully analysed to ensure that there is nothing else on your system.

So you should start your own new topic and post your logs there.
