    Start here. http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,46313.msg290095.html#msg290095

    Post what logs you can. Without logs there isn't much we can do.

      See if you can download ComboFix.

      Download ComboFix by sUBs from one of the below links. Be sure top save it to the Desktop.

      Link #1
      Link #2

      **Note:  It is important that it is saved directly to your Desktop

      Close any open Web browsers. (Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc) before starting ComboFix.

      Temporarily disable your antivirus, and any antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.
       
      Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
      When finished ComboFix will produce a log for you.
      Post the ComboFix log and a new HijackThis log in your next reply.

      Important: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

      Remember to re-enable your antivirus and antispyware protection when ComboFix is complete.

          Did you turn off you antivirus before trying to run ComboFix? Or did it finish running?

            I don't have any Anti Virus on this computer except for the pop-up when i start up which is apart of the infection.
            i double clicked and it had the little combofix with progress bar below it it finishes or appears to and that's when the rootkit problem will pop-up or nothing at all will happen.

            Does ComboFix go through the stages? There are like 30 of them, or does it not get that far?

              It doesn't get that far the only thing it does is i'm guessing the very first step like right after you click it to open it up.

              Download SDFix by AndyManchesta and save it to your desktop. http://www.filedropper.com/sdfix_1

              Print out these instructions or copy them into a Notepad file and then save them to your desktop so you can read them in Safe Mode


              When using this tool, you must use the Administrator's account or an account with Administrative rights

              • Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
              • (this is the drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix).
              • DO NOT use it just yet.
              Reboot your computer in Safe Mode using the F8 method. To do this, restart your computer and after hearing your computer beep once during startup (but before the Windows icon appears) press the F8 key repeatedly. A menu will appear with several options. Use the arrow keys to navigate and select the option to run Windows in "Safe Mode".

              Open the SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
              • Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
              • It will remove any Trojan Services or Registry Entries found then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
              • Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
              • When the PC restarts, the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
              • Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt.
              • Copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt in your next reply .

                I tried to download it and when i go to open the file it says windows has encountered a problem and needs to close. Is this the same file as SmitFraudFix? Because i had that previously installed.

                No it's different.

                Try this and then try downloading again.

                Go to download the program HostsXpert
                • Unzip HostXpert to your Desktop
                • Open up the HostXpert program.
                • Make sure that the "Make Hosts Writable?" button in the upper right corner is enabled.
                • Click Create Back Up
                • Then click on Restore Microsoft's Host Files
                • Close the HostXpert program
                .
                ----------

                Download to your desktop FixPolicies.exe, a self-extracting ZIP archive from HERE.

                Double-click FixPolicies.exe.
                Click the Install button on the bottom toolbar of the box that will open.
                The program will create a new Folder called FixPolicies.
                Double-click to Open the new Folder, and then double-click the file within: Fix_Policies.cmd
                A black box will briefly appear and then close.
                Restart the computer so the changes can take effect.
