Please try this one instead.

Download the GMER Rootkit Scanner. Unzip it to your Desktop.

Before scanning, make sure all other running programs are closed and no other actions like a scheduled antivirus scan will occur while the scan is being performed. Do not use your computer for anything else during the scan.

Double-click gmer.exe. The program will begin to run.

**Caution**
These types of scans can produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any
"<--- ROOKIT" entries unless advised!

If possible rootkit activity is found, you will be asked if you would like to perform a full scan.
  • Click NO
  • In the right panel, you will see a bunch of boxes that have been checked ... leave everything checked and ensure the Show all box is un-checked.
  • Now click the Scan button.
  • Once the scan is complete, you may receive another notice about rootkit activity.
  • Click OK.
  • GMER will produce a log. Click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "GMER.txt"
  • Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop.

    ok so you want me to scan this? Because I double clicked and it opened the program and it's on a screen where in the Type column it says attachedDevice, in Name it says \Driver\kbdclass \Device\KeyboardClass0 and then the Value column says Wdf01000.sys (WDF Dynamic/Microsoft Corporation

    A whole bunch of things checked off on the right including my c:\ drive andthen scan copy and save... buttons.  So I should click Scan?

            Ok. Let's try this instead.

            Copy (Ctrl +C) and paste (Ctrl +V) the text in the code box below to Notepad.

            Code: [Select]
            @echo off
            Copy /y gmer.exe ark.exe
            Start ark.exe

            Save it into the gmer folder as  File name: ark.cmd
            Save as type: All Files

            Once done, double click ark.cmd to run it.

            This should start GMER, follow the steps I have outlined earlier to save a log file, then post me the contents in your next reply.

              I did what you told me to, saved the notepad file, and then dblclicked it. Verified the checked and unchecked boxes and then clicked scan.  In the middle of the scan, a blue screen appeared saying that windows is stopped to prevent the system from getting further damage and then it restarted.  I started windows normally and then when the "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown" screen came up, this was in the details:

              Problem signature:
                Problem Event Name:   BlueScreen
                OS Version:   6.0.6002.2.2.0.768.3

              Additional information about the problem:

              *sigh* what's going on?  is this a virus or another malware that's preventing the scans to go through? Thanks for being patient with me~

              I don't think so. I never could get GMER to run on my computer. Let's try another one.

              Please download Rooter and Save it to your desktop.
              • Double click it to start the tool.
              • Click Scan.
              • Eventually, a Notepad file containing the report will open, also found at C:\Rooter.txt. Post that log in your next reply.

                  First of all, please run a scan on your USB with your AV program. Please hold down the shift key while inserting the USB storage device for at least 10 secs. Now run the AV scan. Also scan it with SAS and MBAM. If these come out clean you should now save any important information on your storage device before running the program below.

                  Panda USB and AutoRun Vaccine

                  Insert your flash drive before we begin. Hold down the Shift key when inserting the flash drive until Windows detects it to bypass the autorun feature. This will keep the autorun.inf from executing automatically.

                  Download Panda USB and AutoRun Vaccine and save it to your desktop.

                  * Extract (unzip) the file to your desktop and a folder named USBVaccine will be created.
                  * Open that folder and double-click on USBVaccine.exe to start the program.
                  * Click Run
                  * Click the button to Vaccinate computer.
                  * Insert your USB flash drive.
                  * When the name of the drive appears in the dialog box, click the button to Vaccinate USB drive(s).
                  * Exit Panda USB and AutoRun Vaccine when done.

                  Note: Computer AutoRun Vaccination will prevent any AutoRun file from running, regardless of whether the removable device is infected or not. USB Vaccination disables the autorun file so it cannot be read, modified or replaced by malicious code. The Panda Resarch Blog advises that once USB drives have been vaccinated, they cannot be reversed except with a format. If you do this, be sure to back up your data files first or they will be lost during the formatting process.

                      oh and can I delete the notepad logs from my desktop?  Which programs do you recommend I keep on my computer to use regularly?
