Undetectable malware/virus/Antispyware Pro?
« on: May 08, 2010, 09:49:20 AM »
I've been fighting this problem for a few weeks now, off and on.  Occasionally I'll be infected with Antivirus Pro 2010, Antivirus Pro 2009, and most recently Antispyware Pro.  After running the usual "remedies" such as SAS, Malwarebytes Pro, Trojan Remover, and Spybot it'll somewhat go back to normal...only with a random popup here and there.  Everytime a popup hits, AVG will tell me that there is a threat, so it's almost like something is there but not being detected.

Now, whenever I run Malwarebytes Pro absolutely NOTHING comes up as a threat/error; which is uncommon.  Some smaller stuff will come up with the other tests, but nothing that seems to fix the problem.  Any help would greatly be appreciated.

I'm not sure what version of MBAM you're using. Could you please uninstall the version you have and download this newest one. Run a full scan and post the log.

Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware from here.

Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
  • Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Full Scan", then click Scan.
  • The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. (See Extra Note)
  • Please save the log to a location you will remember.
  • The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
  • Copy and paste the entire report in your next reply.
Extra Note:

If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.
