Trojan:DOS/Alureon.A - reboot loop

    Looks like I was hit by the Trojan:DOS/Alureon.A. Last week my Dell Inspiron Laptop (Windows 7 64) shut itself and when I try to start again it went into a indefinite reboot loop. When it boots it receives a startup error and wants to launch startup repair until the message told me that it could not repair automatically.

    I read "READ ME FIRST INFO" but I cannot perform any steps as I cannot get it to boot normally. I looked at other forums on my other computer, where I was able to download the Farbar Recovery Scan Tool x64 on my USB drive and run the program. Attached is the FRST.txt log, as requested to another user. Also, I tried to download TDSS Killer from your site on my USB drive but received the following error in command prompt: the subsystem needed to support the image type is not present.

    Please help.

    I was able to do a dell datasafe restore before I ran the Farbar recovery tool.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!
    So does this mean that you fixed your problem?

    FRST shows that you have a couple system files missing
    Do you have your Windows boot DVD?

    Download this >> View attachment fixlist.txt


    Save fixlist.txt to your flash drive.
    • You should now have both fixlist.txt and FRST64.exe on your flash drive.
    Now reboot back into the System Recovery Options as you did previously.
    Run FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
    The tool will make a log on the flashdrive (Fixlog.txt).
    Please attach this to your next message. (See how to attach)

    Now boot into normal Windows can continue with the below.



    Then attach the below logs:
    • Fixlog.txt
    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

    I have attached the fixlog after running the farbar using given fixlist.txt

    I also found the file C:\Windows\System32\LPK.dll in my X (dell recovery) drive and copied it to the C drive before I ran the farbar fix. I did not find the other C:\Windows\SysWOW64\LPK.dll file.

    After I rebooted my machine it still went into the Startup repair mode and running for the last 40 minutes. I will post the result after it is completed.

    Thank you chaslang for responding quickly to my post.

    I ran the farbar using the given fixlist.txt and I have attached the fixlog.txt.

    Before running the fix I was able to find the
    C:\Windows\System32\LPK.dll file in my X drive (dell recovery drive) and copied it to the c drive.
    I could not find the file C:\Windows\SysWOW64\LPK.dll in the system.

    After I rebooted my machine it is got into the startup repair mode. It is running for the last 40 minutes. I will post the results once it completes.

    Thank you chaslang for responding to my post.

    Startup repair completed after 2 hours

    It is complaining about MissingOSLoader

    I am not sure what to do next.

    All your help is appreciated.

    I attached the fixlog.txt file earlier and got a message stating that the admin has to approve the message. I am not sure if you have received the log file
