Internet Security Suite has invaded my computer. I downloaded Stopzilla software to r

funchic5 · Mar 2, 2011

My computer is infested with Malware. I downloaded Stopzilla software to fix it because it claimed to be free, but come to find out only the scan is free and you have to pay to remove the problem areas. I am broke and can not afford it. I'm wondering if there really is a free program that will fix my problem? The scan said I have 553 infections. Here's the basic rundown: Name Type Severity
Fake Antivirus Rogue Critical
Internet security suite Spy/Adware Critical
Kamsoft & Ontheor Hijacker High
Security Anti Virus Rogue High
Additional Guard Rogu High
Click Potato Adware Moderate
Hostfile.B Trojan Low
Cookie Spy/Adware Low
Of course theres a ton of each of these but those are the major categories. Is there anything I can do for free? I am not very technologically advanced. I have the free version of avast and its good through mid march because I haven't had computer for long. Any help would be really appreciated!

Yes! Follow the below instructions to receive our totally free malware removal assistance.

Please read ALL of this message including the notes before doing anything.

Please follow the instructions in the below link:

READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

and then attach the requested logs to your next reply when you finish these instructions.

**** If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going. ****

Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not. MGtools will frequently run even when all other tools will not.

After completing the READ & RUN ME and attaching your logs, make sure that you tell us what problems still remain ( if any still do )!

Helpful Notes:

If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode, you can run the steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:[/SIZE]

Starting your computer in Safe mode

If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools and the manual updates for SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes ( links are given in the READ & RUN ME) onto another PC and then burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.

If you cannot seem to login to an infected user account, try using a different user account (if you have one) in either normal or safe boot mode and running only SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes while logged into this other user account. Then reboot and see if you can log into the problem user account. If you can then run SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes, ComboFix and MGtools on the infected account as requested in the instructions.

To avoid additional delay in getting a response, it is strongly advised that after completing the READ & RUN ME you also read this sticky:

Don't Bump! It Only Hurts You!!!

* Any additional post is a bump which will add more delay. Once you attach the logs, your thread will be in the work queue and as stated - our system works the oldest threads FIRST.
