I'm following instructions as noted, but every time I try to run ComboFix, the computer crashes (showing the "blue screen"). The person helping me stated to post a new thread if I had trouble since they only help in the AM (see copy of message below). I had disabled Norton prior to running ComboFix, tried running in regular and safemode, and every time, just before ComboFix finishes loading, the computer goes down. Please advise if there is something else I can do to get ComboFix to run or another option.

"Hi


Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix tool:

Please ensure you read this guide carefully first.

Please continue as follows:

Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix, link
Remember to re-enable them afterwards.

Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.


When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

Please include the following reports for further review, and so we may continue cleansing the system:

New dds log.

A word of warning: Neither I nor sUBs are responsible for any damage you may have caused your machine by running ComboFix. This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.

Hi besodulce84,



I don't help with logs thru PM. If you have problems create a thread in the forum, please.


PM means Private Message. What he means by "I don't help with logs thru PM" is that we don't provide assistance via Private Messages; we only do it on public forums :)
