Kevin Zoll 309 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Move Win32kDiag to the Desktop. Instructions must be followed implicitly.

You will be presented with 2 confirmation prompts. Select yes on each. Your system will reboot.Note: It is possible that Avenger will reboot your system TWICE. Upon reboot, a command prompt window will appear on your screen for a few seconds, and then Avenger's log will open. Please paste that log here in your next post. ----------------------------------------------------------- Go to start > run and copy and paste the following command in the field: "%userprofile%\desktop\win32kdiag.exe" -f -r This should restore permissions on locked files and remove mountpoints. ----------------------------------------------------------- Post fresh logs for: Avenger (C:\avenger.txt) a-squared Free ISeeYouXP HiJackFree Let me know of any problems you may have encountered with the above instructions and also let me know how things are running now!

Ty6977 0 Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I ran the Avenger and upon restart I continually get the message that NT Authority\System is shutting down, error code 1073741482, will restart in one minute. It just continually repeats this cycle over and over. Any advice? Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Zoll 309 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Do the following: Click Start > Run Type shutdown -a Click OK ----------------------------------------------------------- Download to the Desktop: - SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition - Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware ----------------------------------------------------------- Using SAS Double-click SUPERAntiSpyware.exe and use the default settings for installation.If you get a message like SuperAntiSpyware.exe is not a valid Win32 application then try renaming SuperAntiSpyware.exe to SAS.EXE and see if it will run. This error message often occurs due to malware trying to block the installation. [*]An icon will be created on your desktop. Double-click that icon to launch the program. [*]If you get an error message like The System Administrator has set policies to prevent this installation then see this possible fix which will help for some versions of Windows http://www.superantispyware.com/supportfaqdisplay.html?faq=50 [*]If asked to update the program definitions, click "Yes". If not, update the definitions before scanning by selecting "Check for Updates". ( If you encounter any problems while downloading the updates, manually download and unzip them from here.) [*]The first time you run it, it will ask you whether you want to Enable Automatic Update Checking. This is enabled by default. Since so many people come here complaining about slow start up, I suggest that you disable this now. If you later decide to keep SAS, you should enable automatic updating to make sure you are always up to date. [*]On the next form, you should allow diagnostic reports to be sent but this option is up to you. [*]On the next form fro Home Page protection, you should select Do Not Protect . We do this at this time because we do not want anything to get in the way of cleanup. Since are coming here for malware removal, your home page could be currently set to a malware link and we don't want to block fixing of it. [*]Now physically unplug your cable to the internet (even if you have dial-up, unplug modem) [*]In SUPERAntiSpyware under Configuration and Preferences, click the Preferences button. [*]Click the Scanning Control tab. [*]Under Scanner Options make sure that only the following are Unchecked ( make sure all others are checked ): Scan only know file types Scan for tracking cookies Display scan option in Explorer context (right click) menu [*]Click the "Close" button to leave the control center screen. [*]Back on the main screen, under Scan for Harmful Software click Scan your computer. [*]On the left, make sure you check C:\Fixed Drive and any other Fixed Drives in your PC. [*]On the right, under Complete Scan, choose Perform Complete Scan. [*]Click "Next" to start the scan. Please be patient while it scans your computer. NOTE: If you get a blue screen type crash when trying to run the scan then after reboot, configure the below options and rescan Run SuperAntiSpywareIn SUPERAntiSpyware under Configuration and Preferences, click the Preferences button. Click the Scanning Control tab. Under Scanner Options uncheck the below two optionsUse Kernel Direct File Access (recommended) Use Kernel Direct Registry Access (recommended) [*]Then try doing a new Complete. If it still crashes, just skip SUPERAntispyware and continue with the other instructions. If the scan runs, continue on with the below steps. [*]After the scan is complete, a Scan Summary box will appear with potentially harmful items that were detected. Click "OK". [*]Make sure everything has a checkmark next to it and click "Next". [*]A notification will appear that Quarantine and Removal is Complete. Click OK and then click the Finish button to return to the main menu. [*]If asked if you want to reboot, click Yes. [*]Reboot into normal Windows boot mode [*]Now plug your cable to the internet back in. [*]At this point if you run into any problems where your internet connection appears to be broken, perform the below sub steps otherwise skip to the next main step about getting the log from SUPERAntiSpyware: Click on the Repairs Tab. Click on Repair broken Network Connection (WinSock LSP Chain) and then click on Perform Repair [*]To retrieve the removal information ( the log )after reboot, launch SUPERAntispyware again. Click Preferences, then click the Statistics/Logs tab. Under Scanner Logs, double-click SUPERAntiSpyware Scan Log. If there are several logs, click the current dated log and press View log. A text file will open in your default text editor. Although the logs are automatically save in a folder for SUPERAntiSpyware, you may want to save the log somewhere you can easily locate it. We suggest using an informative filename like SASlog.txt Please attach the Scan Log results to your next reply whether it finds anything or not. This way we no that the correct updated version of the program has been run. [*]Click Close to exit the program. ----------------------------------------------------------- Using MBAM Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
