Virus Stopped Me Opening Malware Bytes

[ILM126]

The virus seems to be turning folders on C drive and other USBs into .exe . And when you tried to delete the folders, it comes back a few seconds later. It seems to have infected almost all the laptops at school. I don't know what to do, I tried the tips given on the Malwarebytes forums and it failed.

Why did you run FIX not made for your PC? Don't do it anymore!

Is this school PC or your private?

Read this topic and attach requested reports:

Sorry about that. But here are the requested reports.

Hi,

Before we begin, I want you to have this in mind:

• At the top of your post, please click on the "Watch thread" button and make sure to check Watch this thread...and receive email notifications. This will send an email to you as soon as I reply to your topic, allowing me to solve your problem faster.
• Please do not install any new software during the cleaning process other than the tools I provide for you. This can hinder the cleaning process. Please do not perform System Restore or any other restore.
• Instructions I give to you are very simple and made for complete beginner to follow. That's why you need to read through my instructions carefully and completely before executing them.
• Please do not run any tools other than the ones I ask you to, when I ask you to. Some of these tools can be very dangerous if used improperly. Also, if you use a tool that I have not requested you use, it can cause false positives, thereby delaying the complete cleaning of your machine.
  
• All tools we use here are completely clean and do not contain any malware. If your antivirus detects them as malicious, please disable your antivirus and then continue.
• If during the process you run across anything that is not in my instructions, please stop and ask. If any tool is running too much time (few hours), please stop and inform me.
• I visit forum several times at day, making sure to respond to everyone's topic as fast as possible. But bear in mind that I have private life like everyone and I cannot be here 24/7. So please be patient with me. Also, some infections require less, and some more time to be removed completely, so bear this in mind and be patient.
• Please stay with me until the end of all steps and procedures and I declare your system clean. Just because there is a lack of symptoms does not indicate a clean machine. If you solved your problem yourself, set aside two minutes to let me know.
  
• Please attach all report using
  
  button below. Doing this, you make it easier for me to analyze and fix your problem.

First, go to Control Panel and uninstall following (skip lines that cannot be uninstalled):
- TornTV
- Torntv V9.0

***** NEXT *****​

Download attached fixlist.txt on the same location as FRST (otherwise the fix won't work)
NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to the operating system

Open FRST, and click Fix. Attach me that report after it is finished.

***** NEXT *****​

Please download AdwCleaner by Xplode and save to your Desktop.

Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool.

• Click on the Scan button.
• After the scan has finished click on the Clean button.

Press OK when asked to close all programs and follow the onscreen prompts.
Press OK again to allow AdwCleaner to restart the computer and complete the removal process.

• After rebooting, a logfile report (AdwCleaner[S0].txt) will open automatically.
• Post logfile will also be saved in the C:\AdwCleaner folder.

There is also now a virus on google chrome that changes your new tab window, I have no idea what it is called. It seems to be closing google chrome quite frequently.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Can you run Adwcleaner one more time with the same procedure and attach produced reports: R1 and S1

 

[ILM126]

But for some reason. The R1 & S1 reports are a few days old, and there is another two reports called: R2 & S2. I'm just going to attach both files anyway.

 

[ILM126]

And now, when I try to reinstall Malwarebytes. It comes up with this, word by word:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Internal error: Expression error 'Runtime Error (at 79:177):

External exception E06D7363.'
-------------------------------------------------------------

Then it also gives me this

-------------------------------------------------------------
Runtime Error (at 69:252):

External exception E06D7363.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Then this

-------------------------------------------------------------
Internal error: Expression error 'Runtime Error (at 45:89):

External exception E06D7363.'
-------------------------------------------------------------


Then the install finishes and Malwarebytes doesn't start up.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Ok, please download and run this tool:

http://downloads.malwarebytes.org/file/mbam_clean

If it ask you to restart, please do so. Then download fresh setup and try to install again.

 

[ILM126]

Yes! Yes! Thank you so much. I just successfully installed Malwarebytes and it seems to be running fine Now I'm running a quick scan.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Very good

I would like one more tool to be run:

Scan with McShield

Please download McShield by dr_bora and save it to your desktop.

• Install it on your machine.
• It will initially run a scan and show the result as a toaster by the system clock.
• Start the Control Centre by clicking on the
  
  icon in your system tray.
• Go to the Scanner tab and tick unhide items on flash drives.
• Plug in the drive and McShield will start a scan.
• A logfile of this scan may be found in the Logs tab of the main screen.

Please include that log in your next reply.
