    Hi i went to this website: {snip}
    and downloaded the ratiofaker program found here: {snip}

    but it ended up being a virus and putting my system in safe mode. I cannot do system restore or anything. Eset does not detect anything on scans.I have a paper endline and my pc is messed now.
    when windows starts up it is fine but after 2 mins or so my start menu bar gets removed and so does the status and task bar and my desktop icons.
    I checked in safemode and it runs a .dll at start up that is called MServer, i delete it from start up but it just comes back again under a different .dll name.

    thanks for your time and i look forward to your reply.

    It looks like a dropper/downloader for a backdoor or a bot. You'll have to contact ESET support with a log of ESET's SysInspector.

    Hi, I wouldn't write to ESET tech support for this simple problem. Better will be contact some forum specialized on malware removing.

    Yes, the base downloaded file can be trojan downloader/dropper, but loaded files will be written in registry and loaded in processes.

    I was able to log into windows and look at nod32's log and i found out that the following happened....

    C:\Users\Raul\AppData\Local\Temp\wr-1-1645.exe
    Win32/TrojanDownloader.Small.IAW trojan quarantined - deleted RaulCrainic-PC\Raul Crainic Event occurred on a new file created by the application: C:\Users\Raul Crainic\Downloads\ratiofaker1.75-setup.exe. The file was moved to quarantine. You may close this window.

    C:\Users\Raul\AppData\Local\Temp\setupb.exe probably a variant of Win32/TrojanDownloader.Small.NZM trojan quarantined - deleted Event occurred on a new file created by the application: C:\Users\Raul Crainic\Downloads\ratiofaker1.75-setup.exe. The file was moved to quarantine. You may close this window.

    I think you should follow up on your post at CastleCops and let their malware experts help you out.

    Extracted the undetected trojan and chucked it ESET's way. Looks like a Virtumonde trojan to me.

    Excerpts from the website the guy was trying to download his free software from.

    Now excuse me while I go and laugh my arse off.
