    Hi there. I literally just got this bad virus.

    It crashes every application with a critical error as soon as I try to open them.

    It changed my background to a blue screen telling me I have a virus

    It won't let me install any programs by telling me "The Systems Administrator has set policies to prevent this installation"

    Random critical application errors. One regular critical error happens to mdm.exe and I don't know what that is.

    Blue Screen of Death, giving an error with the driver BOGUS_DRIVER and other things. I guess something the virus created.

    Mind you also, this is all in safe mode (apart from background changing).

    This is all I've noticed so far.

    Here is the Hijack This log I did 10 minutes ago,





    It's a major pain because I can't install any programs. Maybe an online virus scan will help??? Somebody please help me out. :cry

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs 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.

    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


    Note:

    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can running 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:

    Starting your computer in Safe mode

    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and 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.
