Mediachifting virus

I know you mentioned no links but if you don't have the programs already use another computer to download them and then move them over to the infected PC with either a USB flash drive or over our network. If you use the USB option make sure you didn't infect the USB device as well.

My fist steps would be to:

• Run Microsoft Security Essentials and make sure it has been recently updated (hey it's free so why not give it a shot) and/or whatever other AntiVirus program you might have installed already
• if that didn't work get the latest copy of Malewarebytes there is and run it
• still didn't work then fire up RKill and use it to force stop any unwanted processes
• run another full scan of Malwarebytes
• If that doesn't work reboot into safe mode (press F8 at startup until the option becomes available) and try and repeat the RKill and Malwarebytes steps
• Still didn't work? Get ComboFix and let it do it's magic and if it fails it will give you a lengthy log which you can post to one of their forums for further assistance form qualified log parsers.

If that doesn't work just wipe your hard drive and do a fresh install of Windows (I hope you have been doing backups on a regular basis).

If this is what you end up doing then you might as well set your security up right form the start and install a good antivirus suite. You are the first line of defense so don't browse blindly. If you get links that you are not sure of use a link scanner before clicking on the link. Google, Bing and/or Yahoo are your Friends. Use them to find out more about programs before downloading them.

Good Luck
