    Hi there

    This is the first time I've used your service...my roommate recommended it, and the scans I ran seemed to find several problems with my computer. Could you look it over and see if I have any major security concerns? My roommate said he updated my antivirus software, and updated all the missing windows updates.

    • Java(TM) 6 Update 24
    • Java(TM) 6 Update 7

    Uninstall the above outdated Java.

    Reboot
    your machine and install the most current and up to date version of Java available here at the below link:

    Java Runtime 6

    Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

    Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
    to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
    2. If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
      • Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required
      • "%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /uninstall
        • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /uninstall, it must be there.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
    3. Go back to step 6 of the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    4. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    5. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    6. If running Vista, 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.
    7. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    8. 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.
    9. If you are running Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
      • Refer to the cleaning procedures pointed to by step 7 of the READ ME
        for your Window version and see the instructions to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
      • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:

    hi there

    So i followed the instructions, but it didn't successfully merge with the registry. Instead, I got an error message that read:
    "Cannot import c:\users\lizward\Desktop\fixME.reg: The specified file is not a registry script. You can only import files from within the registry editor.

    Any thoughts?

    You have to create the fixME.reg patch properly. The very first line of the file should be REGEDIT4. The Quote: is not part of the fix and there can be no blank likes above the REGEDIT4. It must be the 1st line in the fix.
