Hi there!
I got a rogue virus which is killing my computer! I read up about what to do and heard that you go into safe mode and networking and then download malwarebytes etc. However my issue is that I cannot get into safe mode with networking. After not being able to access safe mode with networking I decided to just try safe mode which did work. I then put all the necessary programs on usb pen and loaded them onto safe mode. Malware only picked up 4 infections and these weren't the rogue. This was due to the fact that malware was not up to date and I could not update it due to it being in safe mode. I then tried tackling safe mode with networking again and opened misconfig and changed the boot to 'safe mode with networking'. Again it didn't work but now I can't even access safe mode again if I press F8. All that happens is when I select my account or admin an error alert dialog box comes up with no writing, just the alert icon, an ok and close button. This is really grinding my gears so any help will be greatly appreciated!

David,

can you do a system restore to a time where you are able to boot into windows successfully?

from there you could install malwarebytes and run a scan?

I don't think I can do a system restore considering I can't log on to anything. Every logon gives me that alert.

It could be linked to your profile only.

when youre in safe mode can you create a new account and try logging into that?

When on the safe mode log in page there is admin and david. both give error alerts when you click them. And there is nothing which allows for a new account to be created... :(

David

This Trojan is fake antivirus, a scam.

Malwarebyte alone cannot irradicate as it is self protective and will prevent all av from launching.

Can you tell me the name of the fake antivirus?

Do you have access to your task manager (alt+ctrl+del)?

Can you still run a tool from your pendrive as I can send you a tool to paralyse the virus while you clean the system

Regards

Hi Ambucias!

I honestly cannot remember the full name of the antivirus and cannot obtain it as I cannot log on.

Alt+ctrl+del only brings up a log on to windows dialog box whicn has the username as david and a password, this is odd as I dont have a password on my account...

The pendrive does not open when im on the safemode welcome screen. It seems i'm very limited due to this error alert.

Would you be able to open the pen even in normal mode?

Can you open your task manager without entering the password?

davidc38
Apr 4, 2011 at 04:26 PM

normal mode brings me to the safe mode welcome screen...

ctrl alt del seems to just bring me to this log on windows box and when u hit cancel it brings you back to the welcome screen...the task manager is no where to be seen

ctrl+alt+del then click enter see if you get to it.

You have not answered my question, can you run from your pendrive?

Didn't find the answer you are looking for?

I have another idea. When you get the alert icon, click ok and tell me what you see.

pressing ok just brings me back to the welcome log in screen lad.

Dave, I suggest that you do not delay replying to me because I will go offline in 15 minutes and will return only in 11 hours.

sorry, trying to try and give you as much info as possible but it just seems so messed up. its soo annoying how it just doesnt let me in safe mode again cause i had the solution before i changed the boot to safemode with networking.

The same error alert comes up.

Sorry, no it doesn't let me run in normal mode so my pen cannot be accessed.

Is there anything i can do in the 'windows advanced options menu'??

where you select all the different modes etc?

Ive tried selecting different things but it still brings me to the same welcome page and i still get the same damn error.

do you think my computer is basically wrecked beyond repair? Maybe thats the solution...lol :(

obviously theres only so much advise we can give you before you need to get it sorted physically from an expert. if you want to continue yourself you could A: mount the hard disk in another PC and run a scan of the full drive from another installation or B: purchase an external caddy for you to fit the hard disk into. this will turn the drive into a USB stick which you can again plug into another PC and scan it with relevant antivirus/malware software.

otherwise youre going to have to take it to the IT guys and get it done properly.

Are you going to continue with the help of a local IT company?

i feel we've advised the best we can, but i wish you the best in getting your computer back to good health!

Dear David,

You are the first case I have encountered where the virus resisted me. Usually these types of rogues want money in exchangem this one is a destroyer.

I will refer your case to our inhouse wizard jack4rall to seek his advice, if you can wait will he wakes up in 12 hours (time zone requiring), otherwise, kieferschild's last solution would be the very best.

Kierferschild is also one of our experts.

Good luck

P.S. Your issue is challenging and thank you for posting on Kioskea

Ill be on this tomorrow...

safe mode with command prompt again brings me to the welcome screen which stops me logging on because of an error alert.
