Download DrWeb CureIt & save it to your desktop. Scan with DrWeb-CureIt as follows:

  • If you get a prompt to buy the full version just exit out of the window. The scanner will still work without buying the full version
  • If or when something is found, click the Yes button when it asks you if you want to cure it.
  • Once the short scan has finished, Click Settings > Change Settings
  • Under the Scanning tab UNcheck Heuristic analysis and click OK
  • Back at the main window, select the Complete scan button and then click the Green Arrow Start Scanning button on the right and the scan will start.
    • Click Yes to all if it asks if you want to cure/move any file(s).
  • When the scan is done.
  • In the Dr.Web CureIt menu on top left, click File and choose Save report list.

[/list]okay running this program. i ran it last night before bed and was planning on posting the logs. but it was taking so long i went to bed with hopes of posting logs this morning. problem is i woke up and the computer apparently rebooted and there was no logs saved on the program. So i am re doing the scan.. I have some things to do and hoping it wont do the same thing today. It won't let me click on the save report list yet (while or before scanning). According to your intructions it says to click on the save report list after it scans, so I'll assume I am doing it correctly. Will post logs later.alright i tried the dr.web again and it scanned (again and finished). I tried to save the logs as requested but the computer screen went blue with a bunch of writing and it said something like critical errors and it counted down from like sixty and before it got done counting it shut down and restarted. It DIDNT give me a chance to save or even read what was on the blue screen other than the critical error. Then it started back up and came to the black screen and asked if i wanted to start in SAFE mode, normal, or some other mode. I started back in normal mode.

I will wait for a reply before making another scan because it takes about two to three hours to run this scan. Try running i tin Safe Mode.
