  • It seems quite a long list... have finally identified how to turn off AVG, too, for if I still need to do the ComboFix bit.

    thanks, all.

    There is definitely something iffy there:
    C:\32788R22FWJFW\swxcacls.cfxxe
    This looks like a virus type of thing, but I doubt Hijackthis will remove it, as something else is triggering it, and once it's in memory it will block removal attempts

    These are not necessarily bad, but do you recognise them:
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Mouse Suite 98 Daemon] ICO.EXE
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PDService.exe] C:\Program Files\Utimaco\SafeGuard PrivateDisk\pdservice.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SlipStream] "C:\Program Files\SlipStream Web Accelerator\slipcore.exe"
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [zzzHPSETUP] F:\Setup.exe
  • Thanks for going through the list. Nope, none are names I recognise.

    Is there anything I shoudl do at this stage (apart from have another cup of tea and stay calm)?

    scan with this

    You may want to go through this once the problem has fixed, you have a lot of bloat on there

    Thanks - am downloading that to a memory stick now.

    What should I tick for the Autoscan, please, everything?

    Update: I went for everything - one new trojan (trojan-downloader.java.openconnection.cg.) found and deleted so far...

    Update 2: An hour in and only 14% scanned so far, so I fear it's going to be another late one.

    Ooo - virus MEM:Rootkit.Win32.TDSS.d - can't be disinfected or deleted as disinfection failed. What should I do? Skip i.e. not perform any action?

    I skipped, but a quick google shows this is a tough one. It's now found it again, in the system memory (I think), and has gone into 'Disinfect Active Threats' scan mode, but now back to 'disinfection failed'.

    Anyone had success with this one? Is this likely to be the big problem?

  • Progress: kapersky restarted my machine, it didn't have the 'Generic Host for Win32' mini issue I first came here with, the task bar at the bottom of the screen is now blue, the icons for Wirless and Local Area connection are now in the tray by the clock and the 'Network Connections' window now works! Will track back through the thread to see what I was supposed to do with it.

    Still no internet connection, but it's looking more normal which I'm hoping is an encouraging sign.

    Kapersky Virus removal still going, and still no way to sort the MEM:Rootkit.Win32.TDSS.d issue yet.

    Thanks to all for reading, and extra special thanks for those who've kept me going yesterday and today.
