this is some kind of really nasty rootkit infection. Is the machine 32bit or 64? I think it's very hard to bust out either way but probably impossible if you have 64 bit

then this is my last idea:
ftp://ftp.drweb.com/pub/drweb/cureit/drweb-cureit.exe
restart in safemode (press F8 several times).

Try starting it and running it several times. Go to options and make it do "complete scan". I have not tested this myself but i read it in a danish forum that looked pretty neat.

You may want to throw in some basic anti-rootkit programs like Blacklight, AVG anti-rootkit, Sophos anti-rootkit. However you should include a warning not to fix anything if these detect anything, and instead post on a known anti-malware forum.

Also you could have a group for other programs like SpywareGuard, SpywareBlaster, MVPS hosts file, and other tools that don't fit into any category.


Why spybot useless? I have faith in spybot


I do think that SUPERAntiSpyware is a lot better though, that program fixed a lot of shit for me that other programs couldnt

I think this like malign cancer all over a human brain. Treatment it either to weak our will leave the computer totally crippled afterwards and probably not totally clean either :/

the best way of keeping your system clean while not having gay performance decreasing antivirus/firewall/antspy software, is makin constant backups of a clean system and restore those often enough.

to make a backup you can use applications like CloneZilla: http://www.clonezilla.org/

just format your HDD.
make 2 partitions to seperate data from applications. (with gparted f.e.)
make a clean install of an OS you like.
install all the applications that you like and you know are clean.
then use clonezilla to make a backup image.

now all you gotta do is collect the applications you would like to add to the system (the installers) and every month or so you can do this:
- restore your image of the system partition.
- install all the apps you collected and whish to add to your system
- make a new backup image of the new system
- enjoy a "brand new" computer every month without needles bullshit apps which slow down your pc
small dicks have great firepower
