    Hello, I was using my computer last night and I got a fake virus protector pop up. It made all my icons disappear and wouldnt let me do much of anything. I am on a computer that has two user accounts on it. Whatever this is it will not let me log on in safe mode. I get a blue screen that states there is an error. I ran malwarebytes and superantispyware and removed everything they found on both user accounts but everytime I restart my computer the same files return. They are _ex-08.exe ,3076r.exe , 1025w.exe and some files that have all random numbers.exe and one that always starts with WPV+random numbers.exe. I am at a lost here and could use someone who has a great knowledge of computers than I do.

    Thanks

    Joe

    Hello and Welcome to MGs. :)

    You will need to head over to the Malware Forum and go through all steps in the READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide. Then you will need to post the logs that are asked for in a new thread. They are great over there and should be able to help you out.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Before I start though I was wondering, since there are 2 users on this computer and I can not get into safe mode, should I run these prgorams on each users side and post 2 different logs or will running it on one users side cover both users? Ugh hope that makes sense :)
