    Well clearly Dr Webs removed something

    Fact is your computers badly infected (At least from your combofix log, whats been removed since ive no clue)

    Youve also run Hitman pro and Stopzilla (I wouldnt touch Stopzilla with a bargepole)

    At this stage you should be thinking about formatting and reinstalling the operating system

    omg.....

    im now having to use a laptop to ask for help.

    I did a drweb scan on my computer and when it went to re start i have no mouse. have i mega broken computer. im upset with myself now and my son is cross with me.

    we have tried using keyboard to get onto control panel to see if its there but it wont let me move across or down when i get on control panel.


    please help

    What kind of mouse are you using, USB, wired?

    Is it just the mouse?

    Go into your device manager and check mice and other pointing devices and see what it says, maybe your driver is corrupted or has been deleted.

    Would check this idea is good with someone as I don't want you copying the infection over too but:

    How about saving all the important stuff (documents, music) on a DVD or an external harddrive?

    Don't run Dr. Web unless told to by alienRIK in my opinion! Can you find the log for Dr. Web?

    Well me personally, id rather you run a fresh combofix scan so I can see whats happening NOW as opposed to before you ran everything else

    Download a fresh copy of combofix too (Will probably need to rename it for it to work, anything will do 'sehf78er34gf.exe')
