    My Computer is being attacked!

    Please anyone really good at IT work help...

    Alright cant post from my home computer because its being hit by some malware or spyware called Vista Smart Security 2010

    i've found that the process is called AVE.EXE

    i need something that can kill this i downloaded 2 programs that said they can and in the middle of their scan they shutdown....

    I've shut off my internet because its closing or bypassing my firewall making virus's being downloaded luckily one of my programs is finding them and disabling them.

    Any and all help appreciated my computer is fried until i can figure this out.

        What programs did you try and use.Is one Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.If not then try it.If the spyware wont let you run it,start your pc in safe mode and run it there.

            Disconnect your internet and run windows in safe mode before scanning.

                You could always rewind your computer. Set it back like 2 weeks. I do that more than reformatting.

                  This particular malware is the one that was credited with being 15% of the total malware on the web right now:

                  Its not that hard to get rid of, but it sounds like you got it fully installed on the PC. We are warning users to power off their PC if it pops up, as even if you try and click the 'X' to close it, it will still install.

                    do a search for rkill.exe if you run it before using malwarebytes it will kill the process and let you delete it.

                          If the programs you are running to clean it are not able to and shut down in the middle, are you also using these same programs to scan your laptop when you backup / copy over the files?

                          I'm not expert, but I'd be careful about transferring anything over to a new machine..

                              My wife had that darn thing, it took scans with several softwares and a registry edit to get rid of it. It was like a 4 day part time job. One of the nastiest things I've seen. And it potrays itself as something good.

                                Sirex should be able to recover his log in and change the password. He would then login and change the password.
