bumblebee Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Hi guys, I need some help. I have this infection on my computer XP Antispyware 2012 and am finding it difficult to remove. I have accessed Malwarebytes to try to get rid of it in safety Mode, but no luck. This infection won't allow me to open any browsers, except Google Chrome from which I am posting this. Any suggestions on what I can do would be gratefully appreciated. Cheers BB Quote Link to comment

Lefty Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I doubt Kaspersky touches it. I run it all the time, and for spyware, I still need Malwarebytes. Quote Link to comment
bumblebee Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 Cheers guys, think I have got rid of it. Went into Safe Mode Networking. Luckily I had Google Chrome, the only browser to appear in that mode. Then I downloaded Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, and after I copied the install icon and changed the .exe ending to .scr and pasted the original, so then I had 2, one ending .exe and the other .scr on the screen. I installed the .scr one, ticking updates and launch when finish and then did a Fast scan, this seems to avoid the attention of the Trojan. After deleting all threats, it automatically reboots to make the deletions final. It all looks ok now, fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment
