    Hello,

    do u not know where this partizan.rri originates from?

    I googled it and the results came up as having something to do with the app, UnHackMe.... :doubt:

    The file along with 2 others are dropped into system32 folder when you install unhackme.They are also left behind after uninstalling unhackme o_O

    So merrygoround do you by any chance have unhackme installed with their test rootkit attached ?

    yea, i got it fixed, but the computer still takes at most 2 minutes to load to the windows. is there a way to stop most of the processes from running each time i turn on my computer? or is it caused by a virus or some sort

    You can access the startup list of programs by clicking on the Start button, then click on Run and a box will open. Type MSCONFIG in the box, then click OK. Then another window which has a title of System Configuration Utility will show up. Click on the Services and Startup tabs to display what progams are loaded at the bootup process. Uncheck those programs that you don't want to load when you boot up. Be aware that you might be stopping a needed program when you do this, but if you are pretty sure that a particular program is not needed, then unchecking it will decrease the memory usage load on the PC. I also use two programs called AutoRuns and Process Explorer to monitor what is running on my PC.

    By the way, what I mentioned previously may not work if you have a trojan that has infected certain system folders and would not show up in the System Configuration Utility display. In this case, I would recommend that you run a utility called Hijackthis (Merijn.org) and then post the log report in a help forum (NOT this one) such as spwareinfo.com or castlecops.com. Hijackthis might indicate a hidden trojan on your system, but it is not foolproof. But I would do what I previously posted first.

    That file may or may not be a keylogger program. It would be best to have the suspect file scanned. You can use the Kaspersky online file scanner or the one mentioned in the previous post to see if anything suspicious is in the file.

    Correct.

    Invited or not, you have - or had - UnHackMe installed on your system at one time or another. Its either still installed, or it left orphan files when it was uninstalled that cause the opening screen msg about "partizan.rri" running.

    If you want that off your system:

    1
    Use start->control panel->add-remove programs to remove UnHackMe - if its still there.

    2
    Whether or not UnHackMe shows on the programs list, go to

    c->windows->system32 where you should find three orphan files (see image)

    partizan.log
    partizan.pbk
    partizan.rri

    Delete all three orphan files

    3
    Reboot your system

    The UnHackMe start-up issue should be gone.

    Worked for me.

    thanks daktari I appreciate the info
    I have this issue also and forgive me for interjecting but my situation seems worse hopeless even

    If I cant get past the start screen which says
    \??\C:\WINDOWS\system32\partizan.rri effectively I cannot boot into my system then how do I get rid of those 3 'unhack me':blink: generated files
    does any one know how to get past the start screen (also cant boot or get past a list of drivers when I tried safe mode)
    does it mean I have corrupted these files and probably the entire system too?
    if so next step reinstall windows
