READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

 

We did not ask you to run AVG Antivirus. We ask you to run AVG Antispyware and that should have been done before MGtools was run.


You have too many antispyware programs installed and they are going to get in the way of removal of malware. Uninstall SuperAntiSpyware and AVG AntiSpyware now (yes right now before continuing).

Is your copy of SpySweeper a paid version or free trial?

• If free, uninstall it now.
• If paid, keep it, but uninstall Windows Defender and Spyware Doctor.

Is your copy of Spyware Doctor a paid version or free trial?

• If free, uninstall it now.
• If paid, keep it, but uninstall Windows Defender and Spy Sweeper.

If both Spyware Doctor and Spy Sweeper are paid versions, you must only keep one installed.

Address the above before continuing.



Uninstall the below old versions of software:
Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2
Java(TM) 6 Family
Java(TM) 6 Update 2
Java(TM) 6 Update 3
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 1

Make sure you reboot after uninstalling the above!

After reboot, now install the current version of Sun Java from: Sun Java Runtime Environment

• Run avenger.exe by double-clicking on it.

• Click on the magnifying glass icon.
• Copy everything in the Quote box below, and paste it in the box that opens:

• Now click the 'Done' button.
• Click on the traffic light icon and OK the prompt.
• You will be prompted to restart, OK the prompt and your PC should reboot, if not, reboot it yourself.
• A log file from Avenger will be produced at C:\avenger.txt

Also delete all files and subfolders in the below folders except ones from the current date (Windows will not let you delete the files from the current day).
C:\WINDOWS\Temp

Now run Ccleaner!

Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created by running this and also attach the log from Avenger.

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

 

You're logs are basically clean. You just need to delete the below file:
C:\WINNT\system32\REN6290.tmp

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

1. If we used Pocket Killbox during your cleanup, do the below
   • Run Pocket Killbox and select File, Cleanup, Delete All Backups
2. If we used ComboFix then UNINSTALL COMBOFIX (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
   • Click START then RUN
   • Now type combofix /u in the runbox and click OK.
   • Note: The space between the X and the /U, it must be there.
3. If we user SDFix you can delete all the SDFix related files and folders from your Desktop or whereever you installed it.

8. If we had you run RenV.exe, you can delete it and the Log.txt file on your Desktop.
9. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
10. If running Vista, 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.
