Malware poblem!!!

UNINSTALL COMBOFIX

• Click START then RUN
  
• Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK.
• Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
  
• 
  

You can also delete any logs we have produced, and empty your Recycle bin.


Close all windows and try typing this command directly in and see if ComboFix runs.

Remember to use the " marks and there is a space between exe" and /killall

Start > Run > type "%userprofile%\desktop\combofix.exe" /killall

If ComboFix runs, please post the log.

let me know how it went.

Hey...
After i uninstalled and typed in what you said I got the message C:\Doucments and settings\Kine\desktop refer to a placement that is unavailable. And so on....

Can I delete all the other programs too?

Did you put this command in, Start > Run > type "%userprofile%\desktop\combofix.exe" /killall ?
If cf ran post the log if it didn't then it has gone
I would keep malwarebytes as it's a good program just remember to update before using.
ccleaner another good program but it's your choice as to whether you keep them I will recommend some programs in my final post.

Yes I put in that command, and didn't get any log...

Congratulations you are clean!
Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Create a new System Restore Point
This is a good time to clear your existing system restore points and establish a new clean restore point:

• Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore
  
• Select Create a restore point, and Ok it.
  
• Next, go to Start > Run and type in cleanmgr
  
• Select the More options tab
  
• Choose the option to clean up system restore and OK it.
  

This will remove all restore points except the new one you just created.

Here are some free programs I recommend that could help you improve your computer's security.
