Hello, my PC has recently been a victim of reader_s.exe...I've reformatted my PC several times and it still popped up. However with the last reformat, things seem to be going fine, but I have a...

After I used ATFCleaner everything on my browser is messed up, like I can't see images, etc.

Actually I think that the .dll seems to regenerate only when someone uses another account to sign on the computer. (after combofix)

Uh oh, pmkjh.dll regenerated itself and a number of new .dlls appeared..

I have tried VundoFix numerous times in all versions but pmkjh.dll still regenerates itself.

I will use ComboFix when I get home tonight.

Avenger did delete it but pmkjh.dll regenerated itself a minute later.

Do I HAVE to use ComboFix? I heard that it can mess up your computer pretty bad and I have a lot of stuff on here so I'm not sure if I should risk using CF.

I've tried AVG, Ad-Aware, VUNDOFIX, HijackThis, RegRun, and Spy Sweeper but I just can't get rid of pmkjh.dll and it's driving me NUTS! How do I get rid of this stubborn .dll?

Okay so I've been getting A LOT of pos.tmp etc. files in my C: Drive and My Docs. I also have a Red X for the icon of my C Drive. I also have these "system messages":

Yeah but the files I deleted were created at the exact same time my computer was infected. My computer seems to be working fine now after I deleted certain services.exe files that I'm positive were...

Long story short I was surfing the web and this thing told me to vote three times before I could enter the site, and by the third "vote" my computer froze and the spyware troubles began.

Okay so...

Hi all, my computer is constantly at 100% even when I'm just opening Firefox. At the moment I believe my computer is clean of viruses/nasties (that I know of). My computer is a Compaq Presario...

Nevermind, I got rid of Look2Me. Thanks for the help anyways jhay116. :cool:

According to the HJT online analyzer stuff, the first one is unkown, the second one is safe, and the third one is not necessary. Whenever I delete the third one it comes back on...so yeah.

Well, I found out that I have the Look2Me/VX2 variant which is pretty hard to remove. I downloaded lm2fix, but the log NEVER shows up. Help?...

Hello all, recently my computer has been acting very weird and it keeps on redirecting my browser to other pages and popups keep appearing. I've used Ad-Aware SE, Spybot, cwshredder, and even Ewido...

Nope, the scanners didn't state where the viruses were located. I wish they did though..these viruses are getting extremely frustrating.

Nope. I never get the BSOD, just random restarts.
