I have the DOJ virus and followed the 3 options. The virus will not let me bootup in any safe mode. I tried the hitmanpro booting from the USB but it would say loading bootcode and stay there. I followed the kaspersky method. Everything was good until I scanned. It immeadiatly said no threats detected.
Thank you

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to a flash drive.
  • Plug the flashdrive into the infected PC.
  • Restart your computer and tap F8 to bring up the Advanced Menu, then click Repair your computer
  • Follow the prompt to enter keyboard input method, and then the prompt to enter a password. If the machine does not have a password, simply click Enter.
In the next menu, use the arrow keys on the keyboard to highlight Command Prompt and press Enter.
  • In the command window type in notepad and press Enter.
  • When notepad opens, click File and select Open.
  • Select "Computer" and find your flash drive letter and close the notepad.
  • In the command window type e:\frst.exe and press Enter.
Note: Replace letter e with the drive letter of your flash drive.
  • The tool will start to run. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Press Scan button.

It will make a log (FRST.txt) on the flash drive. Please attach it to your reply.

The virus will not let me use any of the f8 functions. It will shut windows down and reboot normally. However I did get FRST.txt using reatogo.xp following another thread. Here it is

Within REATOGO desktop select command prompt and type in the following command :

chkdsk c: /r

On completion retry a normal boot. If boot fails, go to REAGOTO again and produce fresh FRST report...

After posting the frst.txt file to you I saw that my computer was at a system recovery option screen. This screen had a option for the command prompt. THis was the first time since the virus hit. I typed rstrui.exe and choosed to restore windows to an earlier time. It has been running for several hours saying restoring files. I do not know if it is fake or just taking a long time. I still have access to the command prompt. Should I let it continue to run?

Restoring should be your last option, first we should try to remove this virus. This kind of viruses are easy to remove without any harm to system, but if you are currently restoring files let it finish.

If you want for us to try, execute chkdisk and attach FRST report after it.

Hi guys,
This thing is still saying it is restoring files. I do not want to do anything else without letting you know. Should I stop it and get you another FRST report? I really appreicate you helping me.

On your clean PC, download the following file by right-clicking it and select save as

fixlist.txt

and save it onto your flash drive.

Then, boot to REATOGO, plug in your flash drive, open FRST and click fix. Post the generated log.

Attempt to boot normally.
