Have you changed the computer boot order in your BIOS as I think you may need to have your optical (CD/DVD) drive as the first boot device option or it will go to the HDD as the first boot device.

Can't you burn the rescue cds in another computer and scan yours?

[zillie25]

ok I was able to make the BD rescue disk via Imgburner.
BD did not found any infection. However during the starting up he repeated this error: "cloop: zlib decompression error"

At this moment Kaspersky is hanging on "searching for Kaspersky Lab product directory". This seems not to work?

Avira does not work on either of the three PCs (1x Vista ; 2x XP) On the first screen (MS DOS-like) I confirm the default option (scan) and then I get the image with the moles, even on the not-infected pc (at least I hope he is not infected but he uses the same wifi, however not in any network with other pc's).

What means the image with the moles?

What if none of the rescue cd's find any infection?

[Lisandro]

I should have suggested Dr. Web first... I'll change the canned text.
Maybe you should try it.

Dr Web keeps hanging at the green start screen: Dr Web Live CD, I dont get the progression bar

I used the image of today, version 090801

In the safe mode he stops at : Version: 5.0.1.090801 (WHITE)

 

Dr Web is doing the memtest-86
No idea what this means...

Man, your computer is severely compromised.
I'll think on trying to get access to the disk (using another computer where you install the disk, using a Linux live cd, etc.) and try to backup your files and data. Reformating seems to be on the way...

Testing is there is a hardware problem in the memory (RAM).

I just don't get it.    I mean while working on my pc everything goes normal and smooth. Surfing goes well, browsing goes well...
I always used Bitdefender Internet Security 2008 and made it scan my pc regularly.

Just Retried dr web again: error = method_name_crs failure for PnP_0C1

I will still try Fsecure.

The picture of the moles (see attachment few posts ago): does it mean my pc is infected?

Did you uninstall BitDefender to install avast? Just disable? So... they're conflicting.

I removed bitdefender with theit uninstall tool, and theit Tech team said the pc was clean afterwards.
I still had some leftovers from Norton also, a trial package was included when I bought the pc. Norton also completely removed with the Norton removal tool from Symantec.

How can I find out that there are some leftovers from BD or Norton?

The picture with the moles is indeed at the previous page of this topic.

The removal tools should have removed the necessary items.
A registry cleaner, now, could make more bad than good.

Do not find... am I blind?

[zillie25]

here it is again

Dr Web Live CD and Kapersky Rescue CD both give this error: "method_name_crs failure for PnP_0C1"

F Secure shows this error: cloop: "zlib szcompression error-3 uncompressing block 166 656636 /65526 /42209 /02"

Only the rescue cd of Bitdefender seems to work, and this one shows no infections

What does these errormessages mean?
