How to fix my own thing after infection with a rootkit

<< < (4/5) > >>

Gamezertruth:
This is what I do always like I run these tools!Clicking on the analysis and kill all the startup items  :cheesy:

Rick:
I found that autoexterminator is useful too;

has that had any impact.

did you identfiy what rootkit virus you had?

Gamezertruth:
I have asked one of the experts, but he does not know what kind of rootkit virus that I'm infected with!
So what can I do now?

Shane:
If you have a rootkit that is brand new and no scanners can detect it yet then your stuck doing a reinstall to get rid of it bud.

This is just one of the many reasons I cant stand rootkits.

Rick:
first off, you mention that it put some nonsense in the start menu?

The name of that file?

Where does it reside in your system?
Looked at the registry key to confirm it does or does not link to any other areas?

searched hidden files for the name of the file in the start menu?
