[QUOTE="Papirus, post: 93171, member: 4131"] OK, these were the steps that I did (all in Windows Normal Mode): 1. Run Windows Repair (all 3 steps)....but I forget to close the antivirus, norton ghost and hitman pro services. 2. Run FSS and network still not working. Here is the log. [attachment=3013] 3. Run Windows Repair again for step 3 (repair) and this time I close the above services to avoid conflicts. 4. Run FSS and network still not working. Here is the log. [attachment=3014] 5. Run TDSSKiller and here is the log. [attachment=3016] (load module checked) [attachment=3015] (scan log) Then I run the OTL mode again to scan the wbemess.dll and fastprox.dll in www.virustotal.com. None of them show any sign of virus. Then I run McAfee Root Kit Remover in OTL mode. Interestingly, it says that it found zeroaccess rootkit in the CD. Here is the log. [attachment=3017]. I upload the shell32.dll from the CD to virustotal.com and it does not find any virus. Is this a false positive error from McAfee Rootkit Remover? Is there a way for someone or McAfee to check the Rootkit Remover tool? Also, I can restore my computer in 20 minutes using the backup data that I have and therefore fix the network problems. However, all other steps that we did will be gone and zeroaccess issue will pop up again (even though I am not sure if this is really an issue or not). Do you have any thought on this? Thanks.
