Re-running ComboFix to remove infections:

  • Close any open browsers.
  • Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  • Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:
    Quote
    KillAll::

    File::
    C:\found.000

    DDS::
    Trusted Zone: clonewarsadventures.com
    Trusted Zone: freerealms.com
    Trusted Zone: soe.com
    Trusted Zone: sony.com
    Firefox::
    Trusted Zone: clonewarsadventures.com
    Trusted Zone: freerealms.com
    Trusted Zone: soe.com
    Trusted Zone: sony.com

  • Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe



  • Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe
  • When finished, it shall produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt
  • I don't need to see the log from this script.
***********************************************************
Please download Rooter and Save it to your desktop.
  • Double click it to start the tool.Vista and Windows7 run as administrator.
  • Click Scan.
  • Eventually, a Notepad file containing the report will open, also found at C:\Rooter.txt. Post that log in your next reply.

    SuperDave,

    I ran the ComboFix. However, Rooter crashes everytime I press "scan". I have run it both regularly, as administrator, and deleted it and re-Dled it. The problem persists no matter what. I even shut down Windows Security Essentials to make sure that wasn't conflicting with it.

    What do you think could be causing the crash?

    Here's the error info:

    Problem signature:

    •Accept any security warnings from your browser.
    •Check
    •Push the Start button.
    •ESET will then download updates for itself, install itself, and begin scanning your computer. Please be patient as this can take some time.

      You mean Bill Gates isn't your neighbour?

      As for my computer: My virus scanners do not seem to be picking anything up. I'll do this next scan in a moment now, too.

      I haven't had a BSOD yet, so it may have been some infections that could have been causing issues. I also haven't had my keyboard turn on/off repeatedly, either.

      I'll post the reply after it is done.

        The online virus scan found no threats and did not provide a log of results.

        Mind if I uninstall the non-functioning Rooter?

        That's cool. We can do some cleanup.

        To uninstall ComboFix

        • Click the Start button. Click Run. For Vista: type in Run in the Start search, and click on Run in the results pane.
        • In the field, type in ComboFix /uninstall


        (Note: Make sure there's a space between the word ComboFix and the forward-slash.)

        • Then, press Enter, or click OK.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix, delete its folders and files, hides System files and folders, and resets System Restore.
        ******************************************************
        Click Start> Computer> right click the C Drive and choose Properties> enter
        Click Disk Cleanup from there.



        Click OK on the Disk Cleanup Screen.
        Click Yes on the Confirmation screen.



        This runs the Disk Cleanup utility along with other selections if you have chosen any. (if you had a lot System Restore points, you will see a significant change in the free space in C drive)
        *******************************************************
        Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates.
