Re: 2nd thread, malware: blue screen, bugs & more

Hi,

Well done.

WARNING -THIS MACHINE DOES NOT HAVE THE RECOVERY CONSOLE INSTALLED !!
Now, let's get the Recovery Console installed before we go ahead with further cleaning.

Go to Microsoft's website =====> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310994

Select the download that's appropriate for your Operating System, which is Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 in your case.




Download the file & save it as it's originally named, next to ComboFix.exe.






Now close all open windows and programs, including all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  • Drag the setup package onto ComboFix.exe and drop it.
  • Follow the prompts to start ComboFix and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Recovery Console.
  • At the next prompt, click 'Yes' to run the full ComboFix scan.


  • When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.
Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt .
