Love Your All-In-One Solution, A Question

(1/2) > >>

McKealty:
After a recent loss of a large portion of our IT, a lot of the computer cleaning has been given to me.  I've usually taken my time, running an antivirus, then using your solution to (I think) remove common registry entry points for malware.

However, I'd like to know for sure if this is, in fact, what your solution does.

Let's say a browser redirect or something has been removed, I would check in HKey_Currenet_User > Software &
HKey_Local_Machine > Software to ensure their entries have been removed.

If it doesn't (and believe me your program does an awesome amount of work anyway!) does anyone know a good list of registry points I would go and delete by hand?

Shane:
The tools I normally run are

malwarebytes anti rootkit
tdsskiller
and combofix as a last resort.

I only run my Windows Repair tool after a system has been cleaned from an infection and something is broken :-)

McKealty:
Thanks!

I've heard tdsskiller mentioned a few times while I was watching/talking to the T1 guys.  I played with it a few times, what am I looking for in its results?

Shane:
Just see if it finds anything and if it does have it clean it up :-)

Hi Shane,

I was hoping you could outline a strategy along with the tools that you use, as you mentioned, to clean the computer first before using Tweaking.com's tool.

It would mean a lot, as I think I'm using some tool that are either unneeded or redundant.  I need to streamline this process because, like I mentioned, this has all been delegated to me after some downsizing.

I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Paul
