    opps should have gave a description on what is happening. I recently had the rediret pop up every time i was on the internet so i did a virus scan with trend micro house call and it showed this gac32/64 virus . it said it would be deleted after a restart how ever it is still there. So I asked my friend for help and he sent me a link here.


    (sorry for the bump didnt know how to edit the post)

    Go into more detail about why you can't attach anything in IE. Uninstalling and reinstalling IE9 might be the easiest solution. Or simply downgrading to IE8.

    ok so i found out how to uninstall IE9 from the windows site how ever after i did they i couldt reinstall it. it kept failing to install. not only that but a lot of my programs (games) do not open anymore. I didn't think it would be such a problem.

    any clue on what i should do?

    thisisu Malware Consultant

    So you should be on IE8 now. First see if you are having any problems with IE8.

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer

    Does this folder exist? If so, open the folder and find iexplore.exe in it. Then try opening iexplore.exe by double-clicking it.

    If you you weren't able to locate any of these folders / files, then do this:

    http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/6703/generalxpicon.gif Download SystemLook from one of the links below and save it to your desktop.
    Download Mirror #1
    Download Mirror #2

    If you have a 64-bit system, please download the 64 bit version from here:
    SystemLook (64-bit)

    • Double-click SystemLook.exe to run it.
    • Copy and Paste the content of the following code box into the main text-field:
    Code:
    [COLOR="DarkRed"]:dir[/COLOR]
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer
    
    • Click the Look button to start the scan.
    • When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan and a file entitled SystemLook.txt will be created on your desktop.
    • Attach that file to your next message. (How to attach)

    Hi,

    Something is wrong with Internet Explorer apparently. It's weird that it doesn't revert to IE8 for you. You may want to try the following through command prompt: sfc /scannow

    It may be able to repair the kinks in IE9.

    No problem.

    Just so you know, since this sounds more like an issue with Internet Explorer and Windows rather than malware related, feel free to post in Software regarding your remaining issues. This way, more people will be able to help you.

    If you are not having any other malware related problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    • Any programs we had you download and/or install can be removed at this time.
    • If we had you download and run ComboFix, here is how to uninstall it:
      • Press and hold the Windows key http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h363/debojyotidas/Windows_Logo_key.gif and then press the letter R on your keyboard.
      • This opens the Run dialog box.
      • Copy and paste the below text inside the text-field:
        • "%userprofile%\desktop\ComboFix" /uninstall
      • Now press ENTER
      • ComboFix will extract its files one last time and you should receive a notification that ComboFix has been uninstalled shortly after.
    • You can re-enable your Disk Emulation software at this time via DeFogger.
    • If we had you create or download a registry patch or "fix" script, these can be deleted at this time.
    • Go into the C:\MGtools folder and run the MGclean.bat file to remove additional traces of our tools.
    • Now we will toggle System Restore to remove any infected system restore points.
    • Lastly, here is a guide to protect you from future infections: How to Protect yourself from malware!
    • Be safe :)
