Hi haydan, There could be a conflict between McAFee and Emsisoft. Thou we do are best to be compatible with other security software the same cannot be said of the competition. Software conflicts between security software, especially those with a firewall component, and Emsisoft is the main reason that we suggest that users only install one anti-virus application. I would like to get two reports from a third-party tool we use to help with diagnosing issues with systems.

It also appears that NEMTY is unbreakable and cannot be decrypted using third-party decryption tools.

That is the dangers of downloading pirated software. Let's make sure of what we're dealing with. The following site is quite good at identification, and will also offer advice on who, if anyone, might have a decrypter available, even if it is not us. We contribute to the site as well.Please visit the following website and upload both an encrypted file (between 256KB and 2MB in size would be best) and a ransom note for proper identification, and share with me the web address of the results page: https://id-ransomware.malwarehunterteam.com/ Please be sure to read the information link on the

Somehow it is protecting itself and reinstalling on startup. Let's try use AdwCleaner. Download AdwCleaner and save it on your Desktop. Close all open programs and Internet browsers (you may want to print out or write down these instructions first). Double click on adwcleaner.exe to run the tool. Click on the Scan button. After the scan has finished, click on the Clean button. Confirm each time with OK. You will be prompted to restart your computer. A text file will open in Notepad after the restart (this is the log of what was removed), which you

Please run FRST again. Next, select and copy the following text, including the words Start:: and End::. Switch back to the FRST program window, and click the Fix button. It should read the fix directly from the clipboard and run the fix. When it is finished, please attach the fixlog.txt file it created in the same folder the FRST program is in.

Closed Infected by unidentified crypto virus
Kevin Zoll replied to Agos's topic in Help, my PC is infected!
You may or may not get your data back. Some will take your money and never sen you a decryption tool. Others will send you a decryption tool or a broken private encryption key that cannot decrypt the data. There are some that will send you the private key and a working decryption tool. You are rolling the dice, and hoping that you come up with a winning roll. -

Unfortunately, it looks like this one cannot be broken, at least at this time. There is a piece of malware running on the system and we need to take care of that. Copy the below code to Notepad; Save As fixlist.txt to your Desktop. Close Notepad. NOTE: It's important that both files, FRST64, and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work. NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system Run FRST64 and press the Fix button just on -

Closed Laptop randomly restarts.
Kevin Zoll replied to BlackTunicLink's topic in Help, my PC is infected!
I recommend that you start with first reinstalling the Intel Dynamic Platform & Thermal Framework Driver. Then disable all Chrome extensions and re-enable them one at a time until you find the extension that is causing Chrome to crash. -
Closed EMail Archive .eml records are infected
Kevin Zoll replied to IT4SmallBiz's topic in Help, my PC is infected!
Yes, the entire archive will be deleted. It is not possible to just remove one or more files from a ZIP archive. You would need to unZip the archive then scan the folder and quarantine or delete the infected emails. -
