Can you spot the malware?

Welcome to Major Geeks!


Most of those references are in your System Restore points which AV scanner in the majority can scan but cannot remove, but they can be removed easily by turning off system restore and turning it on again which flushes those restore points, the others are in your temp internet folder again these references can be flushed by deleting those temps.

HOWEVER dont flush your system restore point yet, please follow the below and attach the logs requested as you may have malware somewhere else on your PC, only once your deemed malware free should you flush the restore points, as even an infected restore point is better than having none in case of issue arrising during malware removal in which you may need to use a system restore.

Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

• READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

• If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.

• Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.

Notes:

1. If you run into problems trying to run theREAD & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can running steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
   
   • Starting your computer in Safe mode
2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
