    Welcome to MajorGeeks, carachama :)

    NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system

    Attached is fixlist.txt
    • Save fixlist.txt to your flash drive.
    • You should now have both fixlist.txt and FRST.exe on your flash drive.

    Now re-enter System Recovery Options.
    Run FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait.
    The tool will make a log on the flashdrive (Fixlog.txt).
    Please attach this to your next message. (How to attach)

    Now attempt to boot normally.

    Thanks! Windows appears to have booted normally (didn't restart within one minute as it was previously doing). Fixlog.txt is attached as requested.

    That seems to be the only issue. Is there any way to tell from the logs when the infection occurred? Thanks again for the fix.

    Nothing is really 100% certain because malware can change Creation and Modification dates on files and folders. But if we were to go by what's in the logs, it would be: July 16th, 2012 @ 8:30AM
