Hello, when I try to boot off the flash drive it says..

"Could not find kernel image: linux"
"boot:"

I also tried with "LinuxLive USB Creator", as opposed to "netbootin", and I got a blue Kubuntu screen with four options on it.
-Live Mode
-Install
-File integrity check
-Memory test

not sure what to do with it now.

Hi,

select live-mode. That should bring you to a desktop.

There press alt+f2 and a small window will open where you can type in the program you want executed.

In that window type konsole. That will open the command line.

type dd if=/dev/sda of=MBRbackup.zip bs=512 count=1 into the command line window.

This will create a file called MBRbackup.zip in your home directory. Either upload this directly from the live-cd to this thread (if you have an internet connection).
Or attach a flash drive (it should be recognised automatically by Kubuntu) and transfer the file from your home directory onto your flash drive.

Hi,

that looks clean so far. Is Spybot still showing the infection in svchost.exe?


Download this file: http://noahdfear.net...oads/udriver.sh
Open Konsole and type in cd Downloads. Type in ls. Make sure you see udriver.sh
Then type bash udriver.sh and press enter.
When done, post me report.txt which will be created in the same folder as udriver.sh.

Spybot doesn't show the svchost.exe infection anymore, just those five cookies still.

Here's the report:

Hi,
that is the file as it was created? I think there may be a bug.


But since the alarm is no longer appearing in any case, I think we're chasing a ghost that is no longer there. As said those cookies are from big advertisement networks, you will get them almost instantly when you almost any given webpage. You can configure your browser to no longer accept cookies if that bothers you. (However that will eman that you also can't stay logged in here any more, for example)
