Clever Malware Problem

Thanks in anticipation of your help, really appreciate it.

Brief summary of problems noticed in last couple of days:

Google links redirect (via counter.fastclick.net) to random sites

Unable to install AVG as it thinks there is already antivirus software installed (there isnt)

Unable to install superantispyware under its usual filename, under an alternate filename it blue screen crashes near the end of installation

Malwarebytes antimalware installs (again under an alt filename) but wont load


Spyware is getting smarter huh? Used to be able to find the program in taskmanager... this is way beyond me.

Ive followed your sticky, again I really appreciate you taking the time to help me with this, was up till 3am pulling my hair out!

Re: Clever Malware Problem

Hi hope you dont consider this an early bump just thought i'd let you know having seen my DDS and also tried to update windows defender that I dont have norton installed. I haven't used it for years (always felt it was an uberdrain on resources) and when I search my hdd for 'norton' It only returned four files none of which are norton antivirus.

Also is windows defender an AV? Not really paid much attention to it until now.

Cheers

Re: Clever Malware Problem

A belated welcome to TSF irishdave,

Unfortunately, when someone posts a second time in their own new request thread that gives us the impression someone has already replied here. If you still have not resolved the issues there, let's get a look for any hidden settings right off.


Download Gmer from here (click the Download EXE button) to your desktop, then click that file to run Gmer.

If on it's opening scan Gmer locates items shown in red or indicates "hidden" or "rootkit", stop there, and click on the Copy button and rightclick on your Desktop, choose "New" > Text document. Once the file is created, open it and rightclick again and choose Paste. Copy the information and post it here please. We don't want any crashes just from taking an initial look at things.

If not, then click on Scan (before scanning, make sure all other running programs are closed and no other actions like a scheduled antivirus scan will occur while this scan completes. Also do not use your computer during the scan).

When completed, click on the Copy button and rightclick on your Desktop, choose "New" > Text document. Once the file is created, open it and rightclick again and choose Paste. Copy the information and post it here please.
