Alright so, i got mixed up with this scam artist on the internet, and i remember downloading something stupid from him but im not sure if i disinfected it or not. I DO NOT KNOW IF I HAVE A KEYLOGGER SO DO NOT ASK. And i know that if something did install it would definetly be a keylogger. But like i said im not even sure if i did get any virus at all. I was wondering since ive read on hacking forums how hackers will encrpyt their keyloggers to make it slide pass antiviruses. So i was wondering if a keylogger was encrypted would malware bytes or spyware doctor detect it? I have professional version of both. Thanks im on right now so ill reply to anything quickly!

You might download this and see if it finds anything. I believe it is reputable and has a 15 day free trial'

Hi and welcome to the forum! . If you think you might be infected, then follow the directions below. Thanks!

Scan and post logs - read note at bottom in green
If you're having Malware related issues with your computer that you're unable to resolve.

1. Please read and follow the instructions provided here: I'm infected - What do I do now?
2. If needed please post your logs in a NEW topic here: Malware Removal - HijackThis Logs
3. When posting logs please do not use any Quote, Code, or other tags. Please copy/paste directly into your post and do not attach files unless requested.


* Please do not post any logs in the General forum. We do not work on any logs posted in the General forum.
* Please do not install any software or use any removal/scanning tool except for those you're requested to run by the Helper that will assist you.
* Using these other tools often makes the cleanup task more difficult and time consuming.
* If you have already submitted for assistance at one of the other support sites on the Internet then you should not post a new log here, you should stay working with the Helper from that site until the issue is resolved.
* Do not assume you're clean because you don't see something in the logs. Please wait until the person assisting you provides feedback.
* There are often many others that require asistance as well, so please be patient. If no one has responded within 48 hours then please go ahead and post a request for review


* NOTE: If for some reason you're unable to run some or any of the tools in the first link, then skip that step and move on to the next one. If you can't even run HijackThis, then just proceed and post a NEW topic as shown in the second link describing your issues and someone will assist you as soon as they can.

Hi!

I see that you have already posted your HJT log!

That being said,

Do NOT download any other programs or try to fix this yourself when being helped as this can make things more difficult for the person helping you. Just follow exactly what they say.

Also, as for the scam part, you should have your accounts changed if you haven't already.
