I am having the exact same problem with ComboFix. Getting expired message and having the application delete itself.
Thanks for letting us know what to do to get ComboFix working.

I have gone and done something really stupid here.In the pop-up window I hit the uninstall button. All hell has broken loose and Spybot Search and destroy is having a field day trying to stop registry entries.![]()

Go in and totally UNINSTALL the combofix. To do this delete the copy of combofix, (default location is C:\ComboFix)
Next try this;
Please download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.
DISCONNECT FROM THE INTERNET...REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE BACK OF THE COMPUTER
Reconnect the internet and come back here with the Deckard Scanner Logs.
- Close all other windows before proceeding.
- this means TURN OFF ALL other security programs too....
- Norton Anti-virus, AVG Anti-spyware,
- Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
- When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply.
Ok That worked so I have attached the logs
Oops pressing the wrong buttons again! Here are the logs
Cheers

Your system is now showing multiple trojans. Since there seems to be a problem with combofix we will start another way
PLEASE WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, TAKE YOUR TIME AND DON'T CLICK ANYMORE WRONG BUTTONS.
Download the following to your desktop;
CCleaner
30 day Free Trial of Trojan Hunter
his will be a zip file. Open it to install and then update
Disconnect from the Internet. Pull the plug from the back of the computer.
Reboot the system in Safe Mode.
Double Click the CCleaner icon.
When it opens click the Run Cleaner Button.
When it is complete then go to the Trojan Hunter program. Run a full system scan and have it fix what it finds.
Once you have completed both of the above. Shut down.
Reconnect the internet cable and then reboot to normal mode.
Run the Deckard scan program again and post back with the new logs.
Finally getting somewhere I think. Downloaded and ran both programs although I had difficulty installing the Trojan Hunter as it seemed to shut itself down before installing so i rebooted in safe mode and installed then. Seemed to work Ok as it deleted several trojans. There is no extra text with DSS scan but HJT ran and left a log so I have posted that as well. PC is running very slow at the moment

minou30, combofix is a very powerful tool and should NOT be run without supervision and only under recommendation of malware tech helping you. If you are running this on your own you can cause damage to the system.minou30 I am having the exact same problem with ComboFix. Getting expired message and having the application delete itself.
