    That might have been remotely funny if I hadn't spent nearly 5 hours last night and the whole of this morning trying to sort this out :rolleyes:

    use system restore to roll back to before this happened

    http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/systemrestore.mspx

    then download and scan with combofix straight away , do a scan that should take 20 minutes

  • Right, I see a trojan in the original Combofix log. Can you run the following programme for me I want to see what else is hiding,
    • Download random's system information tool (RSIT) by random/random from here and save it to your desktop.
    • Double click on RSIT.exe to run RSIT.
    • Click Continue at the disclaimer screen.
    • Once it has finished, two logs will open. Please post the contents of both log.txt (<<will be maximized) and info.txt (<<will be minimized)

    Okay, I have done a system restore and the pop ups have stopped and the system security icons have disappeared, Iam now running combofix. But I have noticed that the little icons you get in your address bar of a webpage have all changed for me. For example, a lot of them have the letters BT??? BT is not my internet provider even?? I used to get a little pic of Martin Lewis in my address bar on the moneysaving webpages..... now I'm getting BT:confused:

  • 1. Close any open browsers.

    2. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

    3. Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:
    Killall::

    DirLook::
    c:\documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\1527240312

    Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe


    CFScriptB-4.gif

    Refering to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe

    When finished, it shall produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt which I will require in your next reply.
