VIRUS ATTACK!!!! can anyone help pls??

[natslaptopbrk]

Hi

I have read the above post "read this before requesting malware removal"

I have had to download all the anti virus' to my desktop, then copy to a disk to add to my laptop because I am unable to get on the internet.
I successfully ran ccleaner, but when I am unable to run SUPERantispyware, a windows installer error message pops up saying the installer service cannot be accessed. This is because I am in safe mode.

Is there any other way I can run it? If I am not in safe mode, my laptop is constantely under attack and I am not able to access control panel, task manager or my start menu due to it being blocked by administrators

I currently run Windows xp prof. I also have spyware doctor, and AWC but I am unable to run either of these in the safe mode. They seem to have disapeared!

Can the laptop be fixed? I have only had it a couple of days, until some bright spark decided to bring their portable hard drive and upload a movie without checking if there was any virus'

please help
thanks Natalie

Can you not get into Normal Mode?

What happens?

Can you post a HijackThis Log?

Good Job.

Now, we need to wait for a Malware Specialist to analyze the logs.

Thanks v much for your help

Do I have to send the logs onto somewhere else??

 

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Nope, they're fine here.

Everything in the MBAM log says No action taken.

You need to run it again and let it fix what it finds. Then run a new HJT scan and post that log also.

Hi

Sorry about that! Not sure whether I saved the file before taking the action because I have ran it again and nothing was found! I have attached logs as requested though!

Sorry again

Natalie

Looks fine now.

If you have any questions just let me know.

Set a New Restore Point to prevent possible reinfection from an old one
Setting a new restore point AFTER cleaning your system will enable your computer to roll-back to a clean working state if needed.

• Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click System Restore
  
• Choose the radio button marked Create a Restore Point on the first screen then click Next Give the Restore Point a name then click Create.
  
• The new restore point will be stamped with the current date and time. Keep a log of this so you can find it easily should you need to use System Restore.
• Next go to Start > Run and type Cleanmgr
  
• Click OK
  
• Click the More Options Tab.
  
• Click Clean Up in the System Restore section to remove all previous restore points except the newly created clean one.

You can find instructions on how to enable and re-enable system restore here:
