startup problem after installation

Then you maybe could try avast! Antirootkit: http://public.avast.com/~gmerek/aswMBR.exe
Download, execute and run a Quick-Scan. This could take several minutes. Don't forget to save the Logfile after scanning.

thank you. i'll try that right now...

[DJBone]

Ok. Please report back the result.

oh.. it just found something File: C:\Users\Ello\AppData\Local\TempDIR\BetterInstaller.exe **infected** win32 ... the rest is not visible within the aswMBR window

i guess i need to have some patience and wait for it to finish. i guess the complete message is saved in the logfile later?

edit: if i scan this file with avast internet security nothing is found..

Yes, it is.

damn, it crashed...

[DJBone]

damn, it crashed...

BSOD? Or the program?

DJBone

[cploj]

no, just the program..

[DJBone]

Then reboot your computer and please try it again.

Wouldn't it be better discussed in:
avast!WEBforum » avast! support forums » Non-english zone » Deutsch
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=24.0

As cploj appears to be German.

The idea is good. But isn't that cross-posting?

DJBone

PS: I'm german.

You could start a new topic in the "Viruses and Worms" subforum (in English), adding a link to this topic, and/or summarizing the main info in your first post there.

Or the people in the subforum would need to come here to help you (and they might come ).

I know but maybe he will understand better.

[DJBone]

@cploj: How good is your english? If it isn't very good then maybe YoKenny's suggest is the better solution.

yes, maybe it would be better for me to speak german about this stuff. however, i just got the idea that when i installed and ran the first test it may have found something and that something was a important file which is now missing. to bad, after deinstalling and reinstalling the old log files seem to be gone.

now i am running aswMBR again and well, lets see what happens.

anyhow, i still wonder how i could get infected since i always used the free avast version before
