    Help me!!

    I am struggling to clear a variety of malware/viruses/trojans from my machine.

    Have run AVG/Superantispyware?spybot/Malwarebytes to clear but had to do in Safe mode as computer was hanging in normal mode.

    Have run Combofix and log is below. Any advice appreciated.

    You have fallen victim to one of the latest attacks that is affecting system files. Notice your Combo log....this means that no matter what we remove, you will still have system files ( even the ones in your i386 folder) that are infected which open ports to download additional malware. The only option you have is to save your data and files and do a complete reformat and re-installation.

    I know that is not what you wanted to hear......:( But it is the only way to make certain your system is reliable.

    The system files are what is infected...not your data or personal files. Once you have reformated and re-installed, and loaded your AV, AS and firewall programs, you can scan your cd for malware. If you like, you can come back to this thread with any logs that you may have questions about.
