| 872189 | 2010-04-02 10:32:00 | Hey guys,I have a problem with a friends laptop.I ran Malwarebytes in safe mode and it found 1170 infections,mainly Security Center stuff,now this thing has no antivirus or firewall.In normal mode nothing will run,I mean nothing.Under safe mode I tried to install Hijackthis and it came up with this..The system administrator has set polices to prevent this installation.Avast or any other antivirus will not install either,I don't know what to do next. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||
| 872190 | 2010-04-02 10:36:00 | If its 32 bit, install trojan remover in safe mode / networking. Update then click on scan. Then select all of the options under the utilities menu | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 872191 | 2010-04-02 10:38:00 | cheers Speedy,I have done that and it found nothing.System Restore is off too. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||
| 872192 | 2010-04-02 10:45:00 | Sorry,need sleep,I will check back in the morning.Cheers. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||
| 872193 | 2010-04-02 10:46:00 | Did you tell mbam to remove whatever if it found them?? If it wont remove them, boot into normal windows, rename the exe for it, then do another scan | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 872194 | 2010-04-02 11:01:00 | Yes mbam removed them all.I got Avast installed after running Ccleaner and it has found Win32:Fraudo [Trj].But still can't install Hijackthis.It has now gone into hibernation and killed Avast boot time scan,will start again,lol. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||
| 872195 | 2010-04-02 11:05:00 | Laptop does not start now.Little blue light flashes then nothing. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||
| 872196 | 2010-04-02 11:16:00 | forget last post. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||
| 872197 | 2010-04-02 18:40:00 | When it's that bad sometimes you have to slave the drive to another PC and scan it first that way. And don't use Avast, use NOD32 or if you really can't, use MS Security Essentials. Avast will miss way too much and it will still be unstable. As well as MalwareBytes, use Spybot too. |
