OK, I seem to have gotten some nasty malware. It all started a couple weeks ago with PC Security 2009. Symptoms include unwanted popups, unwanted audio tracks in the background, and slowing down of my system. Also, I have yet to get any brand of anti-spyware to run since becoming infected. What has been happening is that I am completely able to download and install the anti-spyware programs. Before running any scans I go through and kill processes that are unneccessary or possibly malicious. However, upon running anti-malware scans, all anti-malware programs will futz out in the middle and from that point on I am then unable to do anything with those programs. I receive an error message that reads "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." This is currently happening with both MBAM and HijackThis. I have attempted to rename the installation files as well as the program files, but it always does the same thing. In an effort to be thorough before I posted, I also went ahead and downloaded RootRepeal to look for rootkits but didn't find any that I am aware of. Right now I am stumped and getting frustrated. Any assistance with getting MBAM up and running so I can clean out my system would be appreciated.

-David

It's been 4 days with no response from here, so I figured I would try something new. I ran ComboFix, then reinstalled MBAM and HJT. Both now run properly. Below are the logs from ComboFix, MBAM, and HJT. Assistance would still be greatly appreciated, as the pre-ComboFix versions of the MBAM & HJT .exe files are locked on my system and I am unable to delete them.

Sorry for the long delay, if you still need help please let me know

Thanks for the response. I am fairly sure I've gotten rid of the malware that was causing the original problem after running ComboFix and re-running MBAM and HJT. At least, I haven't noticed any of the popups or audio that I was getting before and follow-up MBAM scans have been coming up clean. However, it did leave the residual problem of being unable to delete the original named versions of MBAM and HJT's .exe files. Whenever I try to delete those I get an error message that reads "Cannot delete HijackThis: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use." If you could help with the residual cleanup I would appreciate it.

-David

Please run the following to remove any tools that might have been used during the scaning and cleaning of your system.

STEP A

Uninstall ComboFix.exe

• Click START then RUN
• Now type Combofix /u (if you renamed Combofix.exe use that name instead) in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the /U, it needs to be there.

• 

• When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"

Remove this folder C:\QooBox if the uninstall instructions don't work and delete Combofix.exe AND check your system time and reset if needed

STEP B

Uninstall GMER
Click on START - RUN and type in or copy/paste %windir%\gmer_uninstall.cmd to remove GMER.

STEP C

Uninstall other tools
Please Download OTMoveIt by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.

• Double-click OTM.exe to run it.
• While connected to the Internet, Click on the green CleanUp! button and it will populate a list of items to clean from your system that we used or may have used.
• It should ask if you want to clean up, select Yes and allow the system to clean up these items.
  NOW please reboot your computer to finish the cleanup process

So you all set now?

Please post a status update on this.

Thanks
