Help!!!!!!!

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to remove virus/spyware from a friends computer:

I can boot to safe/mode, or regular windows desktop icons are available for about a minute, then blank screen.

ctrl+alt+del gives a steady task mgr.

internet is not available for the infected machine.

I'm hoping from ctrl+alt+del (new task) RUN

I can aim to the burner D:\ and run something from a cd.

What can i download using this machine, install to CD, then run on the infected box.

Thanks & Take Care

PS This really re-enforces my love for Shadow Defender & Acronis.

 

CureIt is an option!!

 

Sounds like you're stuck, unless "this" machine refers to your (not the infected) puter.
I would (if possible) DL Dr Web Cure-it via another machine, burn to disc, run it on the sick box.

Good luck

 

try f-secure rescue cd
if possible put the drive in another computer as slave and scan it there
then use superantispyware,mbam,cure it etc

 

Is it safe to also recomend AVZ toolkit?

 

Hi Guys,

Many Thanks!

Dr. Web cleaned the system, enough to stabilize the OS.

SUPERantiSpyware - found additional malware

Next install/run CCleaner many MB's deleted + 160 reg errors

Next restore point

Next Runscanner many bogus items deleted here

Next Install AVG free 28 items found so far <scan still in progress>

Hopefully I can reboot & get some clean scans, defrag & return the machine.

Take Care

Nice job! How many malware were there?...A thousand!?

 

Hi PiCo,

Too many! Boy Thank goodness for 'Wilders', Shadow Defender, & Acronis. With the three mentioned I became pretty unaware of 'malware' & the real world.

One or two more scans & I'll bless the sick box as cured, it's a miracle.

Thanks & Take Care
Rico
