I was getting this avast! popup for rootkit. When I logged into my computer It was constantly BSOD, had to boot up around 3 times just to get back into windows again.
My error from avast! was:
MBR:\\.\PHYSICALDrive0
Rootkit Name: Rootkit: hidden boot sector
I have followed the instructions below:
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=70771I ran aswMBR.exe and it found the rootkit, I hit "fix" - It wanted a reboot ASAP (didnt reboot yet)
Then I ran TDSSKiller and it found 1 threat, and it said "Suspicious objects", Only option after this was to skip, no reboot option. I obtained the report, then I rebooted.
After the reboot I was able to login successfully with no BSOD, but TDSSKiller still shows 1 threat and aswMBR.exe was producing a different error this time. Both results are below. Please help!!
