RE: Kaspersky TDSSKiller updated to v.2.7.9.0
I've never had luck with this utility. It will find the threats, claim to remove / cure the threats. Restart the infected PC and the threats are back. You can scan > remove / cure > restart as much as you want the threats aren't removed / cured at all and keep returning. Managed to stop this using Comodo Autostarts.
This wasn't just on one occasion or the same PC, I've had this happen across a few PC's. I only use TDSSKiller to tell me the location of the threat now as the removal options don't work.
Hitman Pro has become my number one Rootkit remover, works every time.
