    I did that entire malware removal guide, including some extra scans at the end. So I have many logs.

    Still getting false links in google. I can't search anything, it's all ad pages. Sometimes if I hit refresh a few times it fixes itself. Not lately, since the completing the guide.

    Please help.

    Hi Shrap

    1) Please go to Add and Remove Programs and uninstall the following software:


    2) Now we need to use ComboFix to remove a bunch of malware files.

    • Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!
    • If it is not on your Desktop, the below will not work.
    • Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below code box into it (make sure you scroll all the way down in the code box to get all lines selected ):
    Code:
    
    
    KILLALL::
    
    
    
    File::
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\rkgtocweypboxw.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\awtsPIxx.dll.vir
    
    
    Folder::
    C:\Program Files\XoftSpySE
    
    
    
    • Save the above as CFscript.txt and make sure you save it to the same location (should be on your Desktop) as ComboFix.exe
    • At this point, you MUST EXIT ALL BROWSERS NOW before continuing!
    • You should have both the ComboFix.exe and CFScript.txt icons on your Desktop.
    • Now use your mouse to drag CFscript.txt on top of ComboFix.exe
    • Follow the prompts.
    • When it finishes, a log will be produced named c:\combofix.txt
    • I will ask for this log below

    Note:

    Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.


    3) Now Run Ccleaner!

    4) Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created by running this and also attach the log from combofix



    Be sure to tell us how things are running.
