not a valid win32 application

My daughter woke up with an unexpected icon for a Windows Police Pro and almost all of her programs including her Avast Antivirus give her the error "not a valid win32 application" We tried deleting the file, but it came back. We cannot run Hijack this verision on her computer.

 

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Let's see if we can get some info so that we can determine which system file has been corrupted. That way we can try to replace it.

Download and save the below to your PC (save it anywhere you can find it. The Desktop is fine). Then double click on it to run it.

AVPFind.bat

It should take a couple minutes to run. You will see a black command prompt window while it is running and it should close when it is finished. Once it finishes, attach the c:\avplog.txt


Now download and Run exeHelper

• Please download exeHelper to your desktop.
• Double-click on exeHelper.com to run the fix.
• A black window should pop up, press any key to close once the fix is completed.
• Post the contents of log.txt (Will be created in the directory where you ran exeHelper.com)

Note: If the window shows a message that says "Error deleting file", please re-run the program before posting a log - and post the two logs together (they will both be in the one file)


Next, try running the below online scan:

Reboot immediately after scanning if it finds and removes anything. Let me know if anything was found. See if you can save a log with it and attach it in the next reply.



Now run a scan with MGtools and attach the log. Using MGtools



Next post please attach:

• c:\avplog.txt
• log.txt (from exeHelper)
• SAS log (if you can)
• New MGlogs.zip
