    ataport.sys BSOD


    ok so i was playing battlestar galactica online when MSC detected virus after virus after virus the virus's being
    obfuscator or something along those lines
    cycbot.B
    and another one starting with Ponm along those lines.
    (after MSC deleted them they came up again and again)

    i couldn't catch them has the BSOD came up fast (im lucky to have remembered those ^)

    the pc shut down before i could read the BSOD but i could make out the word ataport.sys with 0x00 etc to the right (couldn't make out those either)

    it then restarted very well after.
    then it could be a few seconds into desktop or a few minutes into desktop it BSODs again.

    im in safe mod at the moment ran a virus scan using
    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    it found 14 virus's and deleted them all.

    restarted and same BSOD came up.
    i barely had enough time to activate my account on this forum
    (that needs to be fixed BTW)

    i used the BSOD Dump & System File Collection app but the data its collected seems way to personal for my Liking could you tell what ones to attach regarding my problem.

    also ever since this has happened i keep on getting redirected in firefox and ie when i click google links

    Try this method it only uses the DMP files.





    To enable us to assist you with your computer's BSOD symptoms, upload the contents of your "\Windows\Minidump" folder.

    The procedure:

    * Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another (temporary) location somewhere on your machine.
    * Zip up the copy.
    * Attach the ZIP archive to your post using the "paperclip" (file attachments) button.



    To ensure minidumps are enabled:

    Go to Start, in the Search Box type: sysdm.cpl, press Enter.
    Under the Advanced tab, click on the Startup and Recovery Settings... button.
    Ensure that Automatically restart is unchecked.
    Under the Write Debugging Information header select Small memory dump (256 kB) in the dropdown box (the 256kb varies).
    Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as %systemroot%\Minidump.
    OK your way out.
    Reboot if changes have been made.

    Re your Google Re directs...
    I suggest you download / run the free version of SuperAntiSpyware to scan your computer.
    Do a full scan after updating. It will take some time to complete

    As JMH said at a minuimum run SAS. The google redirect is fairly widespread atm. You can also download HiJackThis and run it. Post the logs and one of our malware specialists will take a look. http://free.antivirus.com/hijackthis/

    was i not supposed to zip compress it?
    i took it directly from the desktop out from the minidump in the windows folder, how's it suspicious i don't understand.
    i followed the instructions i was given.

    You did it correctly I believe.. I think I was asking you to run the malware scans first because of some suspicious circumstances.
