Just heard a lot of disc activity on my PC and found (via Task Manager) Windows Defender running in the background, so I have stopped it and uninstalled it. I then thought about running Malewarebytes Anti-Malware in Safe Mode. And bingo! it ran! So here is the logfile it produced. The Anti-Malware tool will now open in normal Windows mode. However, I stll can't access AV sites in Windows Explorer. Logfile follows: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.30 Database version: 1306 Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 22/11/2008 09:59:38 mbam-log-2008-11-22 (09-59-38).txt Scan type: Quick Scan Objects scanned: 47661 Time elapsed: 5 minute(s), 57 second(s) Memory Processes Infected: 0 Memory Modules Infected: 0 Registry Keys Infected: 2 Registry Values Infected: 1 Registry Data Items Infected: 5 Folders Infected: 1 Files Infected: 4 Memory Processes Infected: (No malicious items detected) Memory Modules Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Keys Infected: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\tdssdata (Trojan.Agent) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.

Download SDFix.exe and save it to your Desktop. Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with SDFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results". Click on This Link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask. Remember to re-enable the protection again afterwards before connecting to the Internet. 1.Double click SDFix.exe and choose Install to extract it to its own folder on the Desktop. Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following : Restart your computer After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually; Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear; Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter". Choose your usual account. 2. Open the c:\SDFix folder and double click RunThis.cmd to start the script. Type Y to begin the script. It will remove the Trojan Services then make some repairs to the registry and prompt you to press any key to Reboot. Press any Key and it will restart the PC. 3. Your system will take longer that normal to restart as the fixtool will be running and removing files. When the desktop loads the Fixtool will complete the removal and display Finished, then press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons. 4. Finally open the SDFix folder on your desktop and copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt

No joy, I'm afraid. I couldn't access the site directly and had to download SDFix on another PC then transfer it to mine via a memory stick. It will not install, even in Safe Mode. Mike.

I renamed SDFix as you suggested and it installed correctly. I ran SDFix in Safe Mode and the report is below. I can now access AV sites and I have updated my AVG files. Thanks so much.

I ran Malewarebytes tool, but then could not update, so I ran the scan anyway (1st scan below). I tried to download Combofix, but couldn't access the site on any of the links, so I rebooted into Safe Mode, then managed to both update Malewarebytes and download Combofix. I restarted in Normal Mode and ran Malewarebytes again (2nd log below), the ran Combofix (3rd log below). Hope that all makes sense to you. I would also like to say at this stage a big big thank you for all your help.

You computer appears to be clean Navigate to and delete this folder: C:\SDFix Empty the recycle bin. Go to start> run> combofix /u (note the space after combofix) then press enter> run. This will uninstall combofix so give the uninstaller a minute to run. Go to start> control panel> add/remove programs and uninstall these programs: Hijack This Malwarebytes Eset You should keep AFT Cleaner and run it weekly. You should consider adding "Spywareblaster" to your arsenol of antispyware tools, you can download it from this link Spywareblaster Just download it,install it, and update it. Its free and runs in the background, so you don't actually run it, and re-writes malicious script before it can install on your computer. Look for updates weekly as there is no auto-update on the free version. How is the computer operating?
