    Bsod worker_thread_returned_at_bad_irql


    Hi,

    I am new to this so please let me know if i am missing any info here.

    Recently started noticing BSOD after downloading a movie- possible trojan with it. removed by mcafee but still consequences of BSOD and frequent windows restarts.

    Attached zip from SF tool.

    Thx

    Hello and welcome to seven forums v7377

    You shouldn't be running two antiviruses and a one like McAfee which is a known cause of BSOD's.

    McAfee
    Code:
    Unloaded modules:

    We have seen McAfee cause BSOD's on several systems and recommend uninstalling it with the McAfee Removal Tool and replace with Microsoft Security Essentials. How to uninstall McAfee products using the consumer Removal Tool (MCPR)

    Uninstallers (removal tools) for common antivirus software. Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes are recommended from a strict BSOD perspective. They do not cause blue screens on the system as other AV products do.

    Microsoft Security Essentials, Free antivirus for windows and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free

       Information
    • Do not start the free trial of MalwareBytes, unselect that option when prompted.


    • Update and make full scans with both separately.

    Virus check

    Scan your system with the following:

    Kaspersky TDSSKiller - How to remove malware belonging to the family Rootkit.Win32.TDSS (aka Tidserv, TDSServ, Alureon)

    ESET online scanner - One-time virus scanner free with ESET online scanner

    As well as Windows Defender Offline: How to Use Windows Defender Offline

    Please run these tests and report back the results

    Thanks!
    Removed Mcafee and working with Microsoft security essentials and malwarebytes.
    TDSSkiller, ESET online scanner and WDO- all no threats.

    Systemfileschecker- no issues
    Scheduled disk check
    Will test for REM and Harddrive diagnostic procedure soon.


    However, Microsoft security essentials history showed quarantined- trojandropper:win32/vb.hy
    Removed but not sure what effects it has left on my laptop now!!

    and if anything else I need to do.
