    Removing Combofix.exe File!

    While I was surfing the Internet, I was suddenly bombarded with popups Windows Security Alerts. Small icons are indeed this malware appeared in the systray to ask me to run scans and others. I also saw three icons appear on my desktop, all without 'Antivirus it is not detecting anything! So I tried to run Antivirus and Malwarebytes to make a scan but none of the two starts and I cannot reinstall Malwarebytes. I saw on the Internet that the malware Windows Security Center corresponded to the following in HijackThis, so I checked and "fixed": Code: Select all O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Malware Defense] "C:\Program Files\Malware Defense\mdefense.exe" –noscan. I also downloaded Ad-Aware that it could make a scan and delete some files; the Windows Security icons have disappeared, but still unable to scan my PC with AntiVirus or Malwarebytes. After a reboot my PC does not restart or crashes always after few minutes. So I did another scan with MRT and Ad-Aware but they did not detect anything. In short I need help in removing Combofix.exe File.

    Download SmitfraudFix, save it on your desktop. Post the first report there. Disables security software (antivirus, antispyware) then: Download Combofix sUBs save it on your desktop and not elsewhere! Optionally, install the Recovery Console as it is recommended wait until combofix has finished, a report will be created. Post the report. If Combofix does not start, rename the file and retry Combofix also tried to reinstall Malwarebyte.

    If you are a victim of an infection difficult to eradicate, but we will tackle them.Do the following in the order listed: Download load_tdsskiller of White Wolf to your desktop.

    Thank you for the information you have provided, I regained access to the Internet so I could make the procedure nardino. I found a service load_tdsskiller h8srtd.sys I delete then I started ComboFix. I had great difficulty in launching these tests since the system completely crashed after barely a minute after the opening session but it seems that it is already working in a better condition.

    According to me you should try this: Open Notepad: All Programs-Accessories-Notepad, Glue-y lines written below: Ensure that Word Wrap is unchecked in Format. File:
    c: \ windows \ system32 \ drivers \ KLMD.sys
    c: \ windows \ system32 \ krl32mainweq.dll
    c: \ program files \ ihfkjxb.txt
    c: \ program files \ okntulj.txt
    Save it as CFScript.txt on the desktop. Drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe, Combofix will start and restart the computer. Post the C: \ Combofix.Toujours by C-O Gives information on the evolution of your problems.

    Make analyze this file: C: \ Program Files \ Free Hide Folder \ Uniast.exe. On this site and post the result. To remove the tool, open a notepad in Windows menu> All Programs> Accessories. Copy-paste the following into the box:
    ComboFix / Uninstall
    del c: \ Combofix.txt
    del c: \ Qoobox
    Save As on the desktop RemCombo.bat: Double click the resulting file. Go into the quarantine tab and you empty it of all its contents.

    I could not parse the file because it was not specified in the directory. In any case I uninstalled the program that I did not do anyway. I uninstalled combofix, emptied the quarantine MalwareBytes and reinstalled the latest version of Antivirus update. I also created a new restore point and uninstalled Ad-Aware. Everything seems to work properly.
