Do I have the w32 Blaster?

Can he open REGEDIT and navigate to

Code:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\RANDOM.exe

Also take a look in here

Code:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\Internet Security

Also look in here

Code:

%appdata%\amsecure.exe

Start 78 . We will work from there .

You're welcome .

Prescottbob,

Getting a fresh start is good.

However, on second thought, start with Post #79 in Safe Mode with Networking, and go to Post #78 where the
--->> is, and requests you to take action with RKill, etc.

In Post #78, here:
--->> Please press the Windows key and the R key simultaneously to open Run dialog box.

In the Run box, type (or copy/paste with your mouse, if you can):

iexplore.exe http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/rkill/dl/132/
Press: OK

...press on with the rest of Post #78...

The best chances of getting this malware beat, is to go in Safe Mode with Networking.

Also, did an icon appear on your Desktop for this malware?

If I'm not mistaken the virus is called Internet Security 2013

Yes, that is it, and may be a bear to get rid of.

It can also add a RootKit for dessert....

Yes most rogue antivirus software do .
