    Boot Infection


    I have some type of boot infection. Its on all 7 of my pc's and im pretty sure its on my phones and tablets also. System Restore, Reset or Reinstalling windows have no affect at all. The only way im able to see what's going on is by using acronis on boot up. It's showing that my c drive is the reserve and my boot drive is x. Also it shows another folder labeled system that im unable to delete. Under my bootx: drive is $Recycle.Bin that comes back everytime i delete it. Im unable to format x drive either. All of my files are corrupt. New windows installs files are replaced. I can tell by the date. They all end up with the date 7/10/15. I have attached a pic of a log file from windows\system 32 folder Boot Infection [​IMG]

    steps taken for infected Pc's.


    Hi:

    There is no one set of "boilerplate", "cookbook" or standard steps.
    Each computer is unique.
    Each malware infection is unique.
    Proper diagnosis, cleanup and repair depends on the particular infection and the system that is infected.
    The process can be tedious and time-consuming, often requiring the use of multiple powerful tools, in the proper sequence.
    Many of them can actually damage the system if deployed improperly by untrained computer users.

    Bottom line:
    Malware cleanup is best done with *customized* support provided by trained individuals who know what tools to use and how to use them.

    There are a few folks with such expertise here at this forum (I am not one of them).
    And there are a number of reputable computer disinfection fora where trained malware removal experts provide free, custom assistance.

    Cheers,
