    I got maleware infection on my PC, with a bluescreen and message "Windows Script Host", and it says "Can not find script file "C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\.tt2.tmp.vbs"

    I was following procedures in "READ THIS FIRST" thread step by step and doing all antispyware etc, but at combofix step, PC got hung and after rebooting, I can's log in. As soon as I type my password on the logon screen, it begins logging but then suddenly logs out. I tried logging in repeatedly, but no luck.

    Please help, just want to mention that I did recovery console installation alrite, and that option is asked while booting.

    Thanks,

    Can you boot in safe mode and login? If not, we will need to use the Recovery Console to try and restore the registy.

    Okay we may be able to make your PC bootable again by using the reocovery console to restore the registry to a backup that was created by ComboFix using Erunt.

    Reboot the PC and when you see the screen with the selection for the Recovery Console, move the cursor to select it and hit enter. This should noot the machine to the recovery console.

    You must enter which Windows installation to log onto. Type 1 and press enter. This will select the C:\Windows installation.




    At the command prompt ( c:\Windows> ), type the black bold print part of each of the below lines (one at a time) each followed by the <ENTER> key. The bold purple part text just shows what your command prompt will be changing to as commands are entered.
    • C:\Windows>CD ERDNT\SUBS
    • C:\Windows\ERDNT\subs> BATCH ERDNT.CON
    • C:\Windows\ERDNT\subs> EXIT
    After the last command the machine should reboot to Windows.

    Did this work?

    there was no SUBS inside ERDNT, rather HIV_BACKUP. I tried the "batch erdnt.con" there, several messages come saying "1 files copied" and then after exit, if reboots windows.

    Like before, windows boots just fine. On the login screen, as soon as i enter my password, it says "loading your personal settings" and desktop starts to appear but immediately it disappears and login screen reappears saying "logging off" and "saving your settings" "closing network connection" etc. Even after multiple login attempts, both my user account and administrator account(safe mode), I can not get past login screen.
