Today i was fixing virus (rootkit) on windows system that control huge expensive machine.
After all attempts (mcafee, kaspersky, AVG, and many other tools), i boot linux with ntfs-3g and did everything manual in 2 clicks.
Did you Installed Antivir? I think you should move on now to Download, Install, and Update the Free Antivir Anti-virus after removing your old Anti-viruses like AVG and Symantec Norton.

Then Disable System Restore, Reboot and Enter Safe Mode State, then Scan your Drives, and see the results.

Hopefully after that things will be better and the laptop will get cleaned.

Hmm, well no I haven't. I'm still unsure , I prefer buying a full version rather than downloading a 30 day trial. Are you sure it can be functional with a 30 day trial ?



( btw so far you have been very helpful , I got to thank you for the time you put up to help me , specially that you knew I was using a laptop lol )
There is a Free Version not 30 days trial, they have a Free Version functional version and you can updated. it is named "Avira Antivir Personal - Free Antivirus"

Yes, I have seen in the Process logs HP Update, so I figured that it is an HP laptop.

No need to thanks, have good time in scanning.
Padre wroteget hijackthis, run it and post the output so we might help :)
I want to learn how to read hijackthis reports. Any good tutorials you know?
weird, u got a clean hijack report. I noticed you have a proccess called explorer.EXE and not explorer.exe

Try to search for it.

Avira is free for personal use, not trial.
It works great for me.
Is Avira better than Kaspersky Internet Security? I do not think so but I'd like to get some insight from those who experienced with both...
