Help - Computer Virus
Started the computer this morning to find a couple of virus on it.
Can someone help me to remove them.
They are called
1. Win32rootkit.TDSS
2. Win32trojanOLMARIK
I currently run The following Programs on my computer but none will remove them.
1. AGV FREE
2. WINDOWS DEFENDER
3. AD-AWARE
4. CCLEANER
I googled the name of the virus's and downloaded a program called SPYWARE DOCTOR, this was of little use as well.
Anyone able to help ???
Kind Regards

avg 8.5 with the latest updates should remove this for you.
have you started your pc in safe mode and ran a full scan ?
press F8 repeatedly while your pc is booting up this will give you the option to boot using safe mode , then run a full scan.
make sure that your avg is up todate.
also spybot is a free adware removal program which i find good.

Safe mode opens, but NOD32 keeps bringing up the same message
"name="C:\Documnets and Settings\*****\localsettings\applications Data\Microsoft\windows\usrclass.dat.log",threat="" , action="" , info""error opening"
The hard drive is spinning but just keeps bringing this error message up.

Where did your download come from? Was it the ESET website?
You could also try this one, its a free online scanner, but you will need to open your computer in SAFE MODE with NETWORKING.

Try all these, looks like you have tried some. Also ensure you have the latest dat updates. Some sneaky wee bastid virus block the updates of known tools, so you may have to go to the vendor site and apply the update manually.
All free:
Spybot - Search & Destroy
Malwarebytes Antimalware
XoftSpySE
SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition
Also the latest stinger, a standalone tool

Do you have another PC? If so then you could have a look at The Ultimate Boot CD for Windows. Configure it, get the AV an Spyware software on it updated (think you may also be able to do this when booted from the disk) then build and boot from the CD and run the AV/Spyware stuff and see if it finds/fixes the issues.
