    Malwarebytes detected Spyware.zbot and I removed it per instructions. After the reboot I did another Full Scan and it apparently was not removed. I no longer needed the application where the infected file was located so I uninstalled it. It was also listed in the restore files - so I disabled restore to delete any possible infections.

    A third scan indicated it was removed, but decided to run through the scan steps to verify. Some items showed up in HitMan so thought it might be prudent to submit the logs to make sure all infections have been removed.

    Thanks for any assistance you may provide.

    You still need to attach the log from running MGTools --- C:\MGLogs.zip.

    Also attach the spybot log so I can see what it is referring to.

    I've attached the MGTools log.

    Not sure what you mean by Spybot log - I don't have Spybot installed.

    Sorry...got confused.

    I am not finding any malware in your logs. Are you having any malware issues?

    I thought I had discovered and removed malware related to ZBOT, but wasn't sure if the items showing up in HitP went undetected or overlooked by MBAM.

    Not having any problems currently. Just wanted a second opinion by someone who can see deeper :)

    Thanks for all your help.

    You are welcome.

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. You can uninstall RogueKiller and HitManPro.
    2. Go back to step 4 of the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. If running Vista or Win 7, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    5. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    6. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders
      related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    7. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link


    Malware removal from a National Chain = $149
    Malware removal from MajorGeeks = $0
