Dreaded explorer reset

Expand Post »
Hellooo! I've been waiting for a chance to post a thread here, I usually have no issues fixing whatever virus may come up by simply reading these forums...but this time I feel like I've tried everything!

The explorer.exe resets repeatedly before just not coming back, I can still start new tasks and access the internet. However most "tech" websites are disabled.

I have tried combofix and a bunch of other stuff that usually works for me.

I have attached the hjt log. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated Thanks

I have tried combofix and a bunch of other stuff that usually works for me.
First of all combofix is not a "regularly used" tool. It should only be used when directed to do so and never should be re-used on another problem. The instruction to use combofix in a thread is ONLY FOR THAT PARTICULAR poster and NOT FOR OTHERS. It is supposed to be uninstalled following all steps given by the helper working with the poster. This can damage your system if used incorrectly or for the wrong reasons OR if used too early too.
If you have used it for this problem post the log.

Re: Dreaded explorer reset

This is just not a program we recommend that people use on their own and that will continue to be our advice here.
We VERY STRONGLY AGREE with and adhere to the CAUTION given here concerning the use of this program and sincerely hope that all others will heed this advice

Due to the power of this tool it is strongly advised that you do not attempt to act upon any of the information displayed by ComboFix without supervision from someone who has been properly trained. If you do so, it may lead to problems with the normal functionality of your computer.
Since I have seen no logs from you then I cannot advise.
