This is the problem - alas TDSSKiller is not yet up to removing the complete zero access

I still have Symantec Antivirus Corporate running, but don't see a way to end/disable it in the client or taskbar.  How do I disable it?  The link on the previous page to help with this is dead.

Is there a way to just stop/disable it rather than uninstalling it?  This a work machine.

Run combofix but do not allow Norton to quarantine or stop any files running  ;D

Is it going to "tell" me if it tries that?  Honestly, I've never seen Symantec (Norton?) do anything.  I didn't even know it was installed!   :P

Okay, Combofix ran and produced this report.  I still don't have Internet access, however.

I had to fix this same rootkit. If I remember correctly Combofix tells you to run it again if you don't have internet access. You can also try a repair install.
