Hi and welcome to the Daniweb forums :).

* At the end, be sure to checkmark the Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform full scan, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad.

Make sure that you restart the computer.

The log can also be found here:
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
Or at C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt

Post new HJT log.

Re: DNS Changer Trojan?
 

everything is working good. i already had MBAM, the problem was that I couldn't update any of the anti viruses of the malware tools. I was un aware that there were 2 site mirrors to update MBAM and the second one was successful. These DNS Changers are particularly nasty.

Re: DNS Changer Trojan?
 

Can you pls post the MBA-M log as well as a HJT log, as there still could be a problem there!

Thanks,

Cohen
