[quote name=\'guestolo\' post=\'449738\' date=\'Dec 10 2008, 05:51 PM\']Is that after you tranferred ComboFix to desktop
Try right clicking on ComboFix and choose to "Run as Administrator"
See if that works

Is your AntiVirus shut down?[/quote]

Anti Virus is on, When I click on it it says" combofix has stopped working " just the standard non responding window.

But I asked you to shut down your AntiVirus when trying to run ComboFix?

Sorry about that. Same thing happened when I disabled virus protection.

What do you mean by that, are you trying to click ComboFix as it's running

Let me remind you of the first instructions with ComboFix
No need for the recovery console, so I'll eliminate those instructions

Can you ensure you following these steps
  • Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools
  • Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.

In your case, right click on ComboFix and "Run As Administrator"
[/list]




Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

I'll add this in also, when ComboFix is running, don't double click on it's screen, it may cause it to stall
Did you do that?

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply

Now, can I ask, did you download a fresh copy of ComboFix?

When I say stopped running, I mean I clicked on the icon, and immediately I get a windows popup stating the application has stopped working. This is the same for several other applications Including google chrome, and spyware doctor.

I will try to run combo fix with a fresh download as I did not use a fresh download.

Fresh Download was same way. It states "combofix has stopped working" before anything happens. Windows then says "a problem caused the program to stop working." Big Help windows...thanks.

Are you able to download with the infected computer?

Try this
Download Avenger.zip and unzip it to desktop
See if it will run
http://swandog46.geekstogo.com/avenger2/download.php

Try right clicking on Avenger.exe and choose to "Run as Administrator"

If it will run, can you just leave it open for now
