Whilst visiting a web site I got an alert through avast regarding a Trojan, so I instantly shut IE down and done a virus check. During the memory check I got a trojan which i couldnt remove or move to chest so I done a boot scan which revealled
1st i tried to delete it and the scan carried on and then I realised i shudnt of done that so I stopped the scan at 40% and continued to boot, on finding it was still there I done another boot scan and this time tried to clean and after that failed i tried to move it to vault which failed, after booting up again whilst doing another scan it brought this up
File name - c:\windows\services.exe
Malaware name - Win32:Rootkit-gen[Rtk]
Malaware type - Rootkit
VPS ver - 090525-0, 25/05/2009
Unfortunatly I dont know what to do now as ive tried to move to chest and get an error "Virus chest server is not running. RPC comminication failed
If anyone knows what i can do nxt plz post
Many Thx
Robbie
P.S its on a notebook so i have no DVD drive but have USB sticks, I also have plenty more computers in the house.
Ive now used Malwarebytes Antimalware and it has removed all the infections but it has left all the errors on my computer it had when the virus was active, my windows firewall is greyed out so cant be switched on, my Avast online protection is not in the system tray and is not running and my IE will not goto any websites whereas when the virus was active no mater where i tried to go on IE it always took me to the same website ive never heard of.
So now im abit happier but think my puters had it.
I cant use system restore as I have a funny feeling the virus will reappear.
I doubt that very much. First post the log of MBAM you already ran.
Then run the following and post the results from them. ( with HJT, choose scan and save a log file, then copy/paste the notepad txt log )
