OK, another tool to check for other types of rootkit.


  • Download TDSSKiller and save it to your Desktop.
  • Extract its contents to your desktop.
  • Once extracted, open the TDSSKiller folder and doubleclick on TDSSKiller.exe to run the application, then on Start Scan.
     

     
     
  • If an infected file is detected, the default action will be Cure, click on Continue.
     

     
     
  • If a suspicious file is detected, the default action will be Skip, click on Continue.
     

     
     
  • It may ask you to reboot the computer to complete the process. Click on Reboot Now.
     

     
     
  • If no reboot is require, click on Report. A log file should appear. Please copy and paste the contents of that file here.
  • If a reboot is required, the report can also be found in your root directory, (usually C:\ folder) in the form of "TDSSKiller.[Version]_[Date]_[Time]_log.txt". Please copy and paste the contents of that file here.
