    Default Fake Windows anti-virus pop-ups, no access to C:/, task manager or control panel.

    Can someone please help me??? I have Windows XP SP2 and have been experiencing some problems….

    - Task manager disabled
    - No access to My computer, Control panel, My documents etc on Start menu.
    - I can access My documents through programmes (such as Word) but the C:/ still does not show.
    - ‘VIRUS ALERT!’ is written next to the clock on the start bar
    - LOTS of pop-ups pretending to be Windows and warning of viruses, internet attacks etc which all try to get me to download their ‘antivirus software’ from a page that keeps opening in Internet explorer.
    - When I use Process Explorer to ‘kill process’ of Internet Explorer the Start bar and all desk top icons disappear.

    I have had these problems before which then lead to my desktop background turning red with a bio hazard symbol and a warning about viruses. I searched the net, followed some advice, downloaded ‘Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware’, ran it, rebooted and everything was fine. That was a couple of months ago but when I run the Anti-Malware programme now it shows varying numbers of threats (I’ve tried it a few times!) ranging from 12 – 203 which when deleted prompts a re-boot…everything is fine for 5 seconds, then it is back again! This implies to me that there is a ‘root cause’ that is not being deleted but hey, I know nothing really, that is why I am here!

    As per the instructions of ‘What to do before you post’ I downloaded, installed and ran Spybot. 66 problems were found and apparently fixed. Ran it again, still 16 problems – these don’t seem to go away no matter how many times I ‘fix’ them.
    I had to run Spybot in normal mode as when I tried to boot up in Safe mode according to the instructions, the option simply wasn’t in the Boot Menu that appeared after pressing F8.

    I already had NOD32 Antivirus running which occasionally tells me a threat has been found, normally repeating
    “Application Win32/Adware.Vapsup found in operating memory. The file can be deleted. No action can be taken while the file is in memory. System memory infection originated from file C:\WINDOWS\okmdepqb.dll”
    and
    “File C:\WINDOWS\okmdepqb.dll is infected with application Win32\Adware.Vapsup. The file can be deleted.”
    “C:\WINDOWS\mrvtdpae.exe is infected with adware.vapsup.”
    But the ‘delete’ button will not select!

    I cannot think of anything else to include now other than the Hijackthis log that has just been produced.

    Please help…..

    Default Update

    I have since managed to get into Safemode using the F5 key and I ran Spybot until it said there were no threats on my system. I have rebooted in normal mode but the 'VIRUS ALERT!' written on the start bar is still there and I still have no access to my C:\

    The pop ups havn't started yet which could be because I uninstalled Internet Explorer?

    Can anyone help????????

    Default MicroBillingSystems + others PLEASE HELP

    Hi! I do not really understand my computer which is why I desperately need help....

    I recently had a problem with a very 'active' virus (lots of pop-ups, disabled functions on desktop etc) which I appear to have cured by various means based on internet research (I waited for a reply here but none came....) All of the nasty red results relating to that virus have stopped appearing on the Spybot result page after I run a scan......MicroBillingSystems will not go away!!!! Everytime I click 'fix problem', it says it has successfully removed it...but then it is there the very next time I scan!
    I have looked it up on the internet and I do not have the common pop-ups it creates, none of the processes related to it appear in task manager and I cannot find any of the files associated with it when I 'search' my C:\. It is just one registery thing. If I delete the registery thing will something bad happen???

    Also.... numerous times when booting up a warning appears saying "windows has recovered from a serious error etc" and no matter how many times I click 'send' or 'don't send' error report it will not go away! Photoshop Elements also says a similar message when I try and open it but adds that it "cannot recover" and simply won't open. What may have caused this? Is there anything I can do to sort it out?

    ALSO.... when trying to sort out the MicroBillingSystems problem I found a webpage caliming to help which had the usual 'download this now to fix your problems' link, I did, I ran the software and the results showed not only the MicroBillingSystems (the only thing that appeared after running Spybot) but also a lot of malware which seemed to be the ones which caused my previous problems that have now ended. The software then prompted payment to remove them. Are they actually there or has it just made it up to get me to buy their product?!

    Here is my HijackThis log....

    Hello,

    Apprantly you missed our sticky topics:

    "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance)

    Do NOT run 'fixes' before helpers have analyzed the HJT log

    The Waiting Room: Post here if waiting for help longer than four days

    Aside from the forum being very busy, volunteer helpers look for topics with a zero response, adding posts and comments will remove that zero.

    If you still require help, please start a new topic and include a fresh HijackThis log with a link to this thread in your new topic, and clarifying

    I have done a few things based on my own internet research
    Regards.
