First thing you need to do is right click the network ‘icon’ in the task bar and click ‘disable’.
This prevents the trojan from accessing the internet to ‘update’ itself.
Secondly, reboot into ‘Safe Mode’ and then re-run Malwarebytes and your antivirus program.
Thirdly, reboot normally and re-run ‘Malwarebytes’ again to be sure the trojan is gone.
If everything checks out ok, then ‘right click’ the network ‘icon’ on the task bar and click ‘enable’.
Sorry for my ignorance, is that the icon that looks like a monitor and a plug/trident (Windows 7)?
This prevents the trojan from accessing the internet to update itself.
Secondly, reboot into Safe Mode...
I'm with you up to here, when you are in safe mode w/the net blocked why not just do a "system Restore" to a checkpoint dated before the trojan first showed up. It's simple and very quick compared to a full scan which doesn't seem to be working anyway. I say that 'cuz I got hit w/ the same "malware" BS, except I kept getting screens saying I needed to buy their program to debug my system ($50)... Method as described worked just fine.
