RKreport2.txt 1.89KB 92 downloadsMy laptop was recently infected with a virus causing popup warnings of an imminent hard drive failure. I’ve confirmed that this is a virus and not a problem with my hard drive. I found a possible solution on this forum posted May 28, 2011 by Essexboy using Unhide.exe, RogueKiller, and OTL. I downloaded and ran the programs as instructed but I’m not sure if the virus was actually found or removed. The instructions called for posting the scan results logs so I’ve attached them to this post. Can anyone interpret these logs for me and tell me if the scans found the virus and if they were removed, or what I might try next.
