Downloaded a STALKER: Clear Sky crack at http://www.mininova.org/tor/1877628 and then went to install it, virus warning popped up from AVG, I ignored it because most of the cracks show up as Trojans, but this one really was!!!(damnit!) Then whole computer got taken over. My Start Menu has changed, there's no access to All Programs, my Task Manager is 'disabled by administrator'. I've run the removal programs in this post http://www.computing.net/answers/se... and SpyBot & AVG 8, to no avail. Under admin SafeMode, task bar is normal, but under my user SafeMode, taskbar has the VIRUS ALERT!. Never seen anything infect SafeMode before! I need this damn thing off my computer!!! Anyone got any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

First, PIRATEING SOFTWARE BY DOWNLOADING OFF OF TORRENTS OR USING PATCHES/KEYGENS IS ILLEGAL AND PUNISHABLE BY LAW!!! DO NOT DOWNLOAD FROM TORRENT UNLESS YOU TRUST THE SOURCE (Like a friend sends you pictures) OR ARE POSITIVELY SURE IT IS LEGAL (Freeware.) Now that that's out of the way, try running HijackThis and a Malwarebytes' AntiMalware (Google Them) and scan with them. DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING ON HJThis YET!!! But post the log. Post the MBAM log too. William E C I AM WEC!!! "If at first you don't succeed, redefine success!" - Anonymous

I know, I know, shame on me. Sometimes I can't control the inner deviant though...it just takes over :D When I get home I'll install HJThis. I already ran Malwarebytes AntiMalware and it found a good amount of things, and I removed them, but problem still persists. I'll post that log when I get home tonight as well. Thanks!
