Infection: XP Desktop

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Run Hitman Pro again and activate the 30 day trial license and use it to cleanup all the Potential Unwanted Programs that it reports.


After running Hitman Pro, reboot the PC and then run a new scan with Hitman Pro and attach a new log.


Are you still having problems?

 

You're welcome. You attached the log from what you deleted, not the log from after reboot and a new scan. I want to make sure it comes up clean after a reboot and new scan.

 

You're welcome. Looking good now!

Your logs are clean. Please complete all of the below final instructions before running any other scans to avoid false detections of things we have already quarantine or left overs from system restore.


If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware.
3. Renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it in step 4 of the READ & RUN ME.
4. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis. If you don't see it or it will not uninstall, don't worry about it. Just move on to the next step.
5. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
6. Now goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 Right Click and Run As Administrator ) on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
8. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
9. If you are running Win 8, Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below to flush restore points:
   • Refer to the instructions for your WIndows version in this link: Disable And Enable System Restore​
   • For Windows 8 and 8.1 system restore see this link: Win 8 System Restore - How to enable/disable​
   • What we want you to do is to first disable System Restore to flush restore points some of which could be infected.
   • Then we want you to Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
