Getting rid of rootkits without normal/safe mode
Hello,
I was wondering if it's possible to remove a rootkit without having to access normal or safe mode through windows recovery. Something like putting a program on a flash drive and running it from cmd.
I have recently run TDSSKiller recently and removed all threats, but due to unknown problems, I can't even use safe mode anymore (I just get the desktop with nothing on it.
I previously created a couple threads where I worked with VistaKing (why is he banned?) To remove any viruses, and the other when the problem came back but twice as bad.
Slow/freezes even in safe mode, found obfuscator virus
Update kb2859537 - cannot boot in normal or safe mode
The first problem was solved by uninstalling the update, but the second now seems to be a virus.
It would be of great help if someone could even point me in a direction because I'm not sure it is a virus since I worked through it with VistaKing.
If you read through this thank you for your time,
