Need help recovering after viruses
« on: August 30, 2009, 10:53:59 AM »
Hi, I ran a scan the other day and got rid of several viruses. However, I can't figure out how to repair the damage they did to my computer.

Lots of stuff is malfunctioning, including Avast. There is a little red circle with a bar over the toolbar logo. The On-Access Scanner isn't running. VRDB won't work.

I also can't do a system restore because that isn't working. I can barely get Firefox to launch...it keeps crashing on me. My virus scans are SUPER slow. CheckDisk isn't working right. On and on and on.

I need some advice on how to get things working right again. I can't even reboot without tons of tries before it works.

Are you sure you are clean  ???

Try
Malwarebytes Antimalware http://malwarebytes.org/  and press "remove slected" after scan

No, I'm not sure.  :-\

MBAM is what I used initially. After I restarted to finish the removal is when all my problems began.

How is that program supposed to work? All it's doing for me is opening the black box, blinking for a few seconds, and then closing.

Im not sure, i think it is only a fix for windows

Overview
The User Profile Hive Cleanup service helps to ensure user sessions are completely terminated when a user logs off. System processes and applications occasionally maintain connections to registry keys in the user profile after a user logs off. In those cases the user session is prevented from completely ending. This can result in problems when using Roaming User Profiles in a server environment or when using locked profiles as implemented through the Shared Computer Toolkit for Windows XP.

UHP Cleanup doesn't do anything like a malware scanner, etc. you install it and it does its work at shutdown, to close stubborn processes. So this isn't specifically a malware solution, but if malware was causing shutdown problems then it could help.

So if you aren't suffering shutdown problems in XP (check your windows event viewer logs) then this is unlikely to help.

 :)  Hi S-100 :

 Since your problems started after using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, it seems
 wise to seek Help on THEIR Support Forums at www.malwarebytes.org/forums
 particularly their "General Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Forum" . Their Forums
 are staffed by trained, CERTIFIED, Volunteer "Malware Removal Specialists" .

 That 1st Entry in their Log ( "avastform.exe [Trojan.Agent]" ) looks highly
 suspicious !?
