    Howdy - I'm working my way through the read first stuff, and I'm into the vista cleaning guide now. I'm not able to get ComboFix to run. I downloaded it from the link in the guide, and I've completed all of the prior steps in the guide (and cleaned out a few trojans in the process), but when I try to run ComboFix, I get the following 2 errors:

    ---------------------------
    Error - Win32 only
    ---------------------------
    Incompatible OS. ComboFix only works for Windows 2000 and XP

    <repeated in several languages>

    and then:

    [Window Title]
    32788R22FWJFW\nircmd.com

    [Content]
    Windows cannot find '32788R22FWJFW\nircmd.com'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

    [OK]

    I think my system is clean now, but I'd stilll like to finish the guide. Any ideas?

    Just skip that step and continue with the guide and attach the logs for:
    SAS
    MBAM
    C:\MGLogs.zip
