Hay guys. Was just using my laptop in the morning and i was working on some work. Suddenly all of my desktop icons disspeared. Then i had a windowsRestorer program come up which told me i had hard drive problems yata yata yata. Its preventing from installing some programs and it wont allow me to use just about any program on my computer that is if i can find them. All my dekstop icons are gone besides my recycle bin. Some kind of rogue im guessing. Spybot found ... fraud defence center and fraud windows restorer. It also found a taskmanager disabler. some other stuff as well. I think Active desktop was one. I need some help getting rid of this stupid malware or virus.

Hi,
Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.com) or here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr) or here (http://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/dds).
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds file to run the tool.
When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
DDS.txt
Attach.txt
Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.

If you used system restore after posting those logs then please create fresh ones and post their contents.
