    You could try running the scan with the netbook in safe mode with networking

    Can you post the names of the ones it does not remove?

    Go into the Malwarebytes 'Logs' tab, and post the relevant logs first so we know what's happening.

    Could be a file infector. Might be easier to backup anything important, then run the factory restore tool.

    Malwarebytes' detection and removal capabilities are at their best in normal mode. A driver it uses doesn't load in safe mode.

    As Russ said, post the log.

    It probably is written that it cannot remove them until you re-boot.

    Have you tried a System Restore. Probably infected by now anyway.

    Agreed with TakeThis, looks like Ramnit.

    Yes it's possible to disinfect in Windows 7, but it would be something I'd only really be willing to do with the machine in front of me.

    bigblackdog - do you have backups of your files? Or another machine to work with?
