Using a different PC, I downloaded HijackThis onto a USB stick and transfered the software to the infected PC under Safe Mode. However, I could not run it. Double click to run and nothing happened. I also tried to run ComboFix and got an error message saying "ComboFix.exe is not a valid Win32 application".
Grateful for any help to get rid these files and get the PC back to normal.
I did manage to run Silent Runners and following is the log file:
"Silent Runners.vbs", revision 56, http://www.silentrunners.org/
