That program saved my computers "life." i now have what i think as full control over my computer. I can now run hijack this and/or combofix. Would u like me to run Hijack this and post a logfile as well? or continue to run malwarebytes as it said some files couldnt be removed? or run avg,?

[Advertisements]

Please run combofix and post that log and a new Hijackthis log.

[kahdah]

Please run combofix and post that log and a new Hijackthis log.

[rich06]

ok. did u see the malwarebytes log on the previous page. im gettin on that

[kahdah]

Yes.

Yo have a badly infected machine.
Combofix will help even more.
So run that and we will continue from there.

should i fix checked in hijack this? i assume so

[kahdah]

PLease only run combofix double click on it and follow the prompts.

Post the combofix log in your next reply

[rich06]

it will be a few days until my next real post. out of state.

[kahdah]

ok whenever you get back.

[rich06]

ok.. sorry for the delay. new problem. when i turn on the tower i get message "windows couldn't start; missing or corrupt file "windowsroot>\system32\hal.dll" "please reinstall a copy of the above file." how would i go about that?

[kahdah]

Follow the instructions in this link >here.
See if that helps you through it.

Let me know.

[rich06]

i am having problems even entering the recovery console. the only thing i can get into is if i hit f10 right as it boots which takes me to the system restore... once its past that though is when i get the error message

[kahdah]

WHen your computer boots up dont press anything until you see an option to about the Recovery Console.
It will say Windows <(Your version of XP)
then Recovery Console.

Then choose to enter the Recovery Console.

See if that works.

[rich06]

it doesnt get that far. error pops up before i get any options

[kahdah]

At startup do you have an option for a system recovery?
