    Good Morning,
    My computer is infected with this annoying ZEUS!! I was reading a news article on my AOL page and I clicked on another little sub article that said something like “10 most adorable celebrity kids” and about half way through the photos, Zeus critical alert popped up stating I had to call this 800-number. I shut the power off at the surge protector and left the computer off for about 30min. I have the Read and Run Me logs.
    Malwarebytes scan will not complete. It freezes at the “scan file system” stage. TDSSKILLER will not download. I have the other logs.

    It looks like you may have just seen a fake warning popup that was trying to get you to call that number to con money out of you. I only see a little junkware to remove.

    First did you knowingly install the below. If not then I would suggest uninstalling it.
    Amazon 1Button App

    Now run AdwCleaner again and this time select the below items and have them removed.

    You're welcome. Looks good now.

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware.
    2. Renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it in step 4 of the READ & RUN ME.
    3. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis. If you don't see it or it will not uninstall, don't worry about it. Just move on to the next step.
    4. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8, 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.
    5. Now goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 Right Click and Run As Administrator ) on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    6. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    7. If you are running Win 8, Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below to flush restore points:
      • Refer to the instructions for your Windows version in this link: Disable And Enable System Restore
      • For Windows 8 and 8.1 system restore see this link: Win 8 System Restore - How to enable/disable
      • What we want you to do is to first disable System Restore to flush restore points some of which could be infected.
      • Then we want you to Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    8. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
