    Hello!

    My brother was a victim of another lovely socially engineered fake anti-virus pop-up. It definitely installed some sort of rootkit, I got a ton of notices about MBAM blocking connections to certain IPs.

    I ran through the read me and have attached all logs, just wanted to make sure I got everything. Thank you in advance!

    Have you looked at your ComboFix log? You have a ton of infected system files. So many that I doubt we will be able to get you totally clean. My best suggestion to you is to back up your important data and files and do a clean install.

    Do you have your install disc? Do you have a restore partition?
