Amature in need of malware removal help
« on: September 20, 2009, 11:08:23 PM »
I have somehow downloaded a virus or malware and it keeps opening porn icons on my desktop I've tried to scan it with my trend micro internet security it gets to 41% and the current target it stops at is, HKLM\SOFTWARE\Cla...539c680f,',1.1) then wont go no further. I tried the procedures under malware removal and the program starts the scan gets so far then stops with no log files. Then when i try to run the program again i get a message that says (Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have permission to access them.) Any help with my problem would be much appreciated thank you.

Try downloading ubuntu and burning it to a CD on another computer. Then boot from the Ubuntu CD and use it as a live CD (don't install). When it boots put Avast or Malwarebytes on it and use it to scan your hard drive.
