First of all I would like to say I am very grateful that I discovered this forum :)

I would hate to create a thread about my PC issues straight away, but there is a pressing matter that i have to resolve first. Hope you can understand.

Well here goes

Four days ago I reformatted my computer for the first time. Everything went smooth and no issues arose. The programs that I installed were Limewire, MSN, Firefox, Windows Media Player and that was pretty much it.

However I started talking on Windows Live Messenger with one of my so called "mates". He sent me this YouTube link and I trusting him that it was safe opened it up. It seemed like the legit YouTube site however, I noticed that my CPU shot up to like 80-90 and not drop even with no websites or programs running. So I assume that the link had something to do with it. I downloaded ‘Malwarebytes' did a scan and found two things one of which was a Trojan. After the scan the CPU dropped down to 5-10 as it was prior to opening the link. I deleted him off MSN as-well.



But now I can't help but to feel paranoid that the link contained a key logger or something that enabled him to see what I'm doing. Should I be concerned :confused: ?


Thanks for hearing me out guys
 
Never clink links thru messengers, even if they are from friends.

Run combofix and then hijackthis and post their logs
 
Hey thanks for the reply guys but my anti-virus went crazy and quarantined at least three items when i tried to install ComboFix. Adding to this my internet tabs all closed automatically and my computer beeped twice :confused: is this normal and should i proceed with the scan ?

Sorry for my noobiness :sad:.
 
Download Combofix, unplug your computer from your internet connection, disable the anti-virus, run combofix, enable anti-virus, connect to the internet again and post log :)
 
I can seem to get the scan going... i get that blue box but i always get a error saying that "PEV.cfxxe" did not shut down properly and requires me to send an error report or not, i click don't send but that same second it comes up again.

Any ideas why?
 
Hijackthis worked though, ill post the log in the next post

I posted it but it said that a moderator needs to approve the post :neutral:
