Is this a virus - Windows Delayed Write Failed

HUFCsteve

Loads of dialogue boxes have just sprung up on my laptop saying Windows - Delayed Write Failed.

Another is saying Windows detected a hard disk problem.

I've googled it and there does seem to be a virus with this message. Question is... What do I do now?!?

And looking in msconfig I can see a file I don't recognise - rfDlnGbvljmBD.exe

closed

untick the file in msconfig, reboot using safe mode with networking, and scan with malwarebytes, tdsskiller etc.

HUFCsteve

Scan with what?

no backups?

HUFCsteve

I do have backups of these files thankfully.

Malwarebytes found a fakehdd file so have deleted that and rebooted as prompted. Currently running VIPRERescue so will post outcome of that and Hijackthis log in a bit.
