Re: I have a weird icon on my toolbar that keeps flashing

Before beginning the fix, read this post completely. If there's anything that you do not understand, kindly ask your questions before proceeding. Ensure that there aren't any opened browsers when you are carrying out the procedures below. Save the following instructions in Notepad as this webpage would not be available when you're carrying out the fix.

It is IMPORTANT that you don't miss a step & perform everything in the correct order/sequence.

The file I was trying to collect for our tool authors and AV vendors was blocked from being packed. We'll try another method. This should also disable it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Download this file - http://download.bleepingcomputer.com...a/ComboFix.exe

    * IMPORTANT !!! Place combofix.exe on your Desktop


  2. Disconnect from the internet....pull the plug!
  3. Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

    Suspect::[28]
    C:\WINDOWS\trJ64.exe
    C:\wuA32.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\winsys.exe
    Save this as CFScript.txt




    Refering to the picture above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe
  4. Follow the prompts. Type "1" and press Enter to begin the scan.
  5. Your desktop may go blank. This is normal. It will return when ComboFix is done. ComboFix may reboot your machine. This is normal.
  6. When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply

    Note:
    Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall


    When CF finishes running, the ComboFix log will open along with a message box--do not be alarmed. With the above script, ComboFix will capture a file to submit for analysis.

    Ensure you are connected to the internet and click OK. A browser will open. Simply follow the instructions to copy/paste/send the requested file.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  7. Open HijackThis and click on 'Do a System Scan and save a Logfile'. Save the log file and post it here.
