I think I have an undetected virus.

results= not happy

While in opera computer starts going hay wire. Mouse gets jumpy with an hour glass popping up and is suddenly unresponsive for a few nanoseconds.

NOT NORMAL! Epic fail when gaming!

First symptoms: unresponsive mouse during game. Screen blackouts during game. Dunno if it was dropping frames before or what. I have never seen that before. The screen would just flicker black for a few seconds.

Unusual task manager trigger; It stops doing whatever it is doing when task manager is opened.

I know there is a site, but I do not remember where. I used to download a program and it listed processes to them and they could see things that were wrong.

Wait, I just remembered that the iobit 360 program does that.

BRB; ...

might be solved

iobit 360 finds 6 threats during scan. Hopefully it finds all of them.

It has been so long since I've had a virus I forgot about it while testing AVG.

Hope this is helpful to someone anyways.

You may want to post this in the security forum.

Hi, HellionDarklord.

Based on IOBit's past practices, I wouldn't run it on my computer. See the following for additional information:
-- IOBit Steals Malwarebytes' Intellectual Property
-- IOBit’s Denial of Theft Unconvincing
-- IOBit Theft Conclusion

If your computer has not returned to normal, I suggest a scan with MBAM: Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.

• Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
• At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
• If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
• Once the program has loaded, be sure Quick scan is selected, then click Scan.
• When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
• Be sure that everything is checked, EXCEPT items in System Restore as shown in this sample:
  
  
• Click Remove Selected.

oh I'm new here and didn't see a security forum.

 

[HellionDarklord]

maybe mayware bytes will help me? rb: windows 7 has been virus free for me for some time. (until I got this last one.)

There seems to still be some mouse sticking ingame.

open task manager and look for any unusual background service. to be accurate then task manager, you can use this Process Explorer

 

[swarfega]

What anti-virus software do you have currently installed ?

 

[Krispy1]

run rkill then run malware bytes when ur done use avast are ur active av

[HellionDarklord]

the Process explorer seems a nice bit of software at first glance. Why does windows 7 not come with this program natively?

 

[HellionDarklord]

oh, and I was running AVG Free and that was it in order to test it. So far malwarebytes has found nothing.

errr.. not in my area of knowledge

Hitman Pro might find something. Try it with and without Force Breach mode. If it finds anything, you can activate a 30 day trial and it will remove it for you.

How does Hitman Pro compare to Emsisoft Anti-Malware? I am running the trial and noticed that when monitoring system usage compared to Avast & Comodo, it is more taxing on my system.

That sounds like a worm to me but just saying.

It does (most of it anyway). You can get to it from the task manager, Performance tab, [Edit]"Resource Monitor"[/edit].

It's actually the same code as Process Explorer but with a Windows 7 UI on it. Though there are some of the more tweaky drill-downs missing, there is still a ton of info about everything your machine is doing under there

Are you running Emsisoft real-time? Hitman Pro is purely on-demand, for now. It only scans for active threats but it is very good at it, in my opinion. (Long read. Edit: Not as long as I originally thought.) You can read exactly how it works in the Command-Line Reference: http://www.surfright.nl/en/downloads/business

This was a program initially made by System Internals. MS bought the software? As it is very in-depth, these programs are not for general users. They allow you to kill just about any program (some AV wont stop through this)

I use this on my systems as well as Autoruns: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

Look through all thier programs there is a lot of great stuff in the suite Sysinternals Suite


Edit: Correction: ProcExplorer is a good interface, it does the same as Windows Taskmanager. (I feel it is easier to find info through ProcExplorer)

Guess You're right corrine. I shouldn't posted that in the first place. It's too dangerous for personal use without expert to guide... Thanks for correcting me
