After running HijackThis I tried to install "Malwarebytes", "Windows malicious software removal tool" and "RavINFree". Now all I get is blue screen. I can't run in safe mode either.

Is there any hope left?

Hi,

I have bad news I'm afraid :(

Unfortunately, one or more of the identified infections on this system is a Backdoor Trojan.

Backdoor Trojans are the most dangerous and most widespread type of Trojan. Backdoor Trojans provide the author or "master" of the Trojan with remote "administration" of victim machines. Unlike legitimate remote administration utilities, they install, launch and run invisibly, without the consent or knowledge of the user. Once installed, backdoor Trojans can be instructed to send, receive, execute and delete files, harvest confidential data from the computer, log activity on the computer and more.

I would counsel you to disconnect this PC from the Internet immediately and keep it disconnected. If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable, and it would be wise to contact those same financial institutions to apprise them of your situation.

In addition to the backdoor Trojan that has been identified, this system is afflicted with other infections. This machine is obviously seriously infected and, even if it were stable enough to run the programs that would be needed in order to attempt cleaning it, it could never be considered to be truly clean, secure, or trustworthy without a reformat and reinstallation of the operating system. We cannot remedy unknown changes the malware may likely have made in order to allow itself access, nor can we repair the damage it may possibly have caused to vital system files. Additionally, it is quite possible that changes made to the system by the malware may impact negatively on your computer during the removal process. In short, your system would be highly unlikely to regain any semblance of stability or reasonable functionality without a reformat. Therefore, your best and safest course of action is a reformat and reinstallation of the Windows operating system.

I'm sorry I do not have more encouraging news for you.
