I never thought I'd say this, but I seriously need help getting rid of the nastiest malware infection I've ever had.

This infection not only slows down my computer, crashes firefox, redirects search results, it also doesn't let certain antispyware programs install/turn on.

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


I tried researching how to get rid of it ,and I just found this link.
LINK

I've tried booting up in Safe Mode and using both Antivir/Super Antispyware it found about 50 Trojans. Antivir finds that specific Trojan, but won't let me remove it. A squared found it, but won't let me remove it.

Malwarebytes/Spybot install, but won't run. I tried changing the .exe file like I did with super Antispyware, but it still won't run.

Does anyone know anything that will FUCKING kill this? If worst comes to worst I'll have to reformat.

GOD THIS IS THE SMARTEST VIRUS EVER!

It won't run. It takes forever to install(probably the virus/trojan is doing it's mischief).

First, thing I did was run hijackthis, and post it on a site that analyzes malicious processes. The problem is that Hijackthis can't detect these. All the ones it did detect I deleted.

No. I'm fucking sick of people always just saying "Reformat!". Do you know how much a pain in the ass it is, also I've always been a pretty knowledgeable person on ad ware/viruses. My Brother has fucked up the comp tons of tons of times doing dumb shit/looking at porn. I've always fixed the infection. Reformatting is like excepting defeat in my opinion.

God why do I always have stress/shit happened to me. I'm a nice guy!

Well next time put all your shit in another partition different from the OS. You only need at most about 60GB for your OS.

Well only advice i can give really is to wait for people on the tech forum you posted at to give you further instructions and in the meantime try running every online scanner known to man. F secure, eset, panda, bitdefender all have good scanners if i recall correctly

I'm not really knowledgeable on this software. I've read it in the threads, but I also found out that it can do some damage to your OS if not used properly.

Would you care to explain how it works?

Thanks will do although this seems really old.

I don't download porn I'm smarter than that. I stream it on Redtube with adblocker making that window look clean.

Honestly another thing that is bothering me is how I got the trojan to begin with. I have to 2 possibilities. A MP3 I downloaded, or a Antivirus suit torrent I downloaded and ran. I think it was the MP3.

I knew it looked shady. Chains of Love by Erasure is now my least favorite song ever.

Hahaha are you serious? Your choices are a music file and a warezed app suite containing presumably at least one executable, and you suspect the music file??

Admit defeat. Reformat. Once you've been back doored you can never be sure it is gone. That's the nature of rootkits. And next time don't download warez antivirus apps. Wasn't your brother "doing dumb shit" this time.

I mean, it's cool if it seems like Trojan Defense Suite worked, but all the programs you tried previously either couldn't detect or remove something. You can't be %100 sure that TDS got everything, that there isn't something there it couldn't find. I mean if there are no symptoms continue merrily on your way or whatever. Hope you're not part of a botnet.
