Assuming Windows : have you tried booting up in "Safe Mode" and then running AVG or other major-horsepower malware-killers ? Making no assumptions : I encourage anyone I know here to have a purchased copy of their anti-virus software no matter what else they do. good luck, ~o:37; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virus checkers can't access this area to clean. You might want to try turning off your system restore then rerunning a virus checker(s). You can always turn Sys restore on afterwards if it's important to you. Aitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgriffith Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Before I move this to Computers (where it should be; will leave a link here)- I can recommend 2 apps for your specific problem: Panda Anti-Rootkit (v1.08.00) File ASSASSIN (v1.06) Google them; freeware. I run AVG and Clamwin AV, as well as the (weak) Windows Defender anti-spyware and the very weak Windows firewall. Used to use Ad-Aware anti-spyware/malware, but their updates started to hang on my slow connection, so I gave them the boot. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or use it as a reference to discuss with whom ever you select to clean your system. If they want to do something different, you might ask why and see if it makes sense to you. If nothing else, this web page will give you a little knowledge (even though they say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing).

prabinceal Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I think that your laptop contains harmful rootkits. Rootkits are not detected by most of the anti viruses. But they are powerful than almost all viruses. It can hide a running process (its own process) and hide from the antivirus softwares. For removing rootkit you must have a good rootkit software. I recomment you to use rootkit revealer which is a small application of a few kbs. I have uploaded a copy here or can be downloaded from filehippo.com. If you want more details about rootkits visit: creatingcomputervirus.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
