    Hello all,
    I am afraid I am a newb to all this malware browser hijacking stuff. Today I was surfing the web and get infected with a bunch of malware. I followed the tutorial posted all the way to running ComboFix. It seems as though Malwarebytes recognizes Vundo and BHO but can not repair them even upon reboot. Also SAS identifies Virtumonde but can not get rid of it on reboot either.

    This is the first time I have had such an issue an I really want to just do a C:Format and re install but I have spent all day going through the "process" and I am so mad that this malware even exists its getting personal. I really want to fix the issue but dont seem to be getting anywhere.

    I am running XP professional version 2002 SP, AMD Athlon 64 processor 3000+ 2.01 GHz, 1.50 GB of RAM. Radeon X850. LanParty Motherboard

    Please help me, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Important Notice: A new version of SUPERAntiSpyware is out that should help with this problem from Vundo.
    • Please uninstall your current version (this is necessary).
    • Then download this SUPERAntiSpyware
    • Install this new version. It may tell you that you need to reboot to complete the installation. You must reboot at this time.
    • After the reboot, run SUPERAntiSpyware and immediately click the Check for Updates button to get more updates for the database.
    • Now run a new full scan of your system. And attach this first log later.
    • Since this infection has been reappearing after a reboot, you will have to reboot again and then run an additional scan to make sure it comes back clean. Attach this second log too.
    Then you also need to attach the log from running MGtools as requested in the READ & RUN ME.
