Hello, I'm talking about the boot partition, I know that farbar only gives the partition on the computer. What exactly will this do for you? @icotonevHello..! Welcome to MalwareTips..!
Please follow the following instruction ..:
Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop. --> IMPORTANT
If your antivirus software detects the tool as malicious, it’s safe to allow FRST to run. It is a false-positive detection.
If English is not your primary language, right click on FRST.exe/FRST64.exe and rename to FRSTEnglish.exe/FRST64English.exe
Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.
---------------------------------------------------
- Double-click the FRST icon to run the tool. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
- Press Scan button and wait for a while.
- The scanner will produced two logs on your Desktop: FRST.txt and Addition.txt.
- Please attach the content of these two logs in your next reply.
In your next reply, please include:
- FRST.txt
- Addition.txt
Hı, thanks for your answersRemoving a boot sector virus can be difficult because it may encrypt the boot sector. If the virus cannot be removed due to encryption or excessive damage to existing code, the hard drive may need reformatting to eliminate the infection. But before that, we can try to remove it as long as you send me the necessary analysis logs.
Hı, thanks for your answersboot viruses are now known as 'bootkits'. They write their code in the MBR as a bootloader at the beginning of the boot process and then disguise the actions of malware running under Windows.But I'm not sure with you if that's what it's about ..! Please do the following:

Can you help me please? @icotonev
Thanks, obviously I don't want to send the FRST records as they contain my information (filename etc.). but if that will help me to be absolutely sure that my boot is free of viruses, I can throw it away. Normal mode as far as I know, not quite sure @icotonevOf course I will try..! Does your OS boot in normal mode..?
if yes, what's the problem with sending me logs with FRST...I want to review them to get an idea of what we're dealing with..!
