    Can Not Start any of the Malware programs

    I have tried to run Malwarebytes on my PC but it will not start. I had to reenable the Task Manager to get anything going at all.

    I did manage to get HighJackit to run and I have attaached the Log file to this Thread, hoping that someone can help me.

    You know you have posted here several times with problems and have really not followed the steps recommended. The last time was in May concerning Virusheat. Hopefully now you will see things through to the total clean up, otherwise the computer is going to end up being "toast".

    You have a "boat load" of MAJOR malware on the sytem that is for sure. At the very least 45 very nasty items noted in your log. Now is NOT the time to ignore the problems, you may very well totally lose the use of the computer if your don't get it cleaned up.
    Can you run any online scans?

    Try this. ComboFix
    Click on the Save button and then when it asks you where to save it, make sure you save it directly to your Windows Desktop.
    When you have the Save as screen configured to save ComboFix.exe to the Desktop, click on the Save button. ComboFix will now start downloading to your computer. If you are on a dialup, this may take a few minutes. When ComboFix has finished downloading you will now see an icon on your desktop similar to the one below.

    ComboFix Icon
    For now, do not start ComboFix as there are a few more steps that need to be done first.


    • Close all open Windows including this one.
    • Close or disable all running Antivirus, Antispyware, and Firewall programs as they may interfere with the proper running of ComboFix.

    Double-click on the ComboFix icon found on your desktop. Please note, that once you start ComboFix you should not click anywhere on the ComboFix window as it can cause the program to stall. In fact, when ComboFix is running, do not touch your computer at all and just take a break as it may take a while for it to complete.
    Just as combofix begins to run you may get a Security Warning.
    Windows is issuing this prompt because ComboFix does not have a digital signature. This is perfectly normal and safe and you can click on the Run button to continue. Once it begins to run you will see a screen asking for you to push 1 to run, 2 to abort. Push 1.
    Combofix will then begin.
    ComboFix will disconnect your computer from the Internet. Therefore, do not be surprised or concerned if you receive any warnings stating that you are no longer on the Internet as your connection will be completely restored at a later stage in the program.
    ComboFix will now start scanning your computer for known infections. This procedure can take some time, so please be patient.
    While the program is scanning your computer, it will change your clock format, so do not be concerned when you see this happen. When ComboFix is finished it will restore your clock settings to what they were previously.
    When ComboFix has finished running, you will see a screen stating that it is preparing the log report.
    This can take a while, so please be patient. If you see your Windows desktop disappear, do not worry. This is normal and ComboFix will restore your desktop before it is finished. Eventually you will see a new screen that states the program is almost finished and telling you the programs log file, or report, will be located at C:\ComboFix.txt.
    When ComboFix has finished, it will automatically close the program and change your clock back to its original format. It will then display the log file automatically for you.

    Please post back here with that ENTIRE LOG.
