[Alissa Lambros]

Malware attacked my computer hidding all of my files. I went on to my control panel to files and un-hid all files on my PC. The files I lost are shown but are shadowy. how do i get them to be shown fully?? Ive tried going to Admin run as and using F:\>attrib.exe -r -s -h /s /d F:\*.*
every time I tried using that root command it said that it doesn't exist or cant be done. How do I get my files back fully???

ComboFix

:!: It must be saved to your desktop, do not run it from your browser:!:

:!: Disable your Antivirus software when downloading or running Combofix. If it has Script Blocking features, please disable these as well. See: http://www.bleepingc...opic114351.html


Download and Save this file -- to your Desktop -- from either of these two sources:
http://download.blee...Bs/ComboFix.exe
http://subs.geekstogo.com/ComboFix.exe

Rightclick on ComboFix and select Run As Administrator to start the program.



* :!: Important: Have no other programs running. Your Task Bar should be clear of any program entries including your Browser.


* A window may open with a series of Disclaimers. Accept the Disclaimers to start the fix.

A caution - Do not run Combofix more than once. Do not touch your mouse/keyboard until the scan has completed, as this may cause the process to stall or your computer to lock. The scan will temporarily disable your desktop, and if interrupted may leave your desktop disabled. If this occurs, please reboot to restore the desktop. Even when ComboFix appears to be doing nothing, look at your Drive light. If it is flashing, Combofix is still at work.

A file will be created at => C:\Combofix.txt. I'll need to see that in your reply.

If you get an error: 'illegal operation attempted on a registery key that has been marked for deletion'
just reboot once and it should go away.
