Hi. I recently reinstalled windows, and in my brilliance, forgot to install an anti-virus program until a few days in. As a result, I've become infected with numerous malware, and what avast tells me is a rootkit. I only noticed the infection when numerous windows functions stopped working (windows firewall), and ping.exe kept appearing in my processes tab. At any rate, I tried to find a result via google, and was met with limited luck by running a few scans and using combofix. However, the rootkit remained, and kept attempting to drop consrv.dll into my files. While Avast seemed to hold it in check for a while, I think it's turned into a serious infection once again. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've attached the results of the scans advised by the sticky in this forum.
