    Welcome to CH.

    Download the MBR Rootkit Detector to your desktop.

    * Doubleclick mbr.exe and follow prompts.
    * A black DOS window will quickly appear then disappear.
    * When mbr.exe is finished it will create a log on your desktop.
    * Copy and paste contents of that log file to your next reply.

      This is a message from Windows or your antivirus?
