Download

On a clean PC try these steps

Run the downloaded file rescue2usb.exe.

On the Kaspersky USB Rescue Disk Maker window, click Browse... and select the iso image of Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10

Select the required USB device from the drop-down menu.

Click START.

Wait until the process is complete.

Click OK on the open window informing that Kaspersky USB Rescue Disk has been successfully created.

Plug the USB flash drive to the infected PC and boot from the USB

Boot your computer from Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10

Press any key to enter the menu.

In the start up wizard window that opens, select the graphic interface language using the cursor moving keys. Press the ENTER key on the keyboard.

Read carefully the license agreement of Kaspersky Rescue Disk. If you agree with all terms, press 1 on the keyboard. To reboot the computer, press 2. To shut down the computer, press 3.

You don't have to use the USB flash drive tool you could just burn the rescue.iso file to a disc

@VistaKing,

What do you plan to do with the Kaspersky Rescue CD?
Haven't used it in a couple of years, and can't remember.

@herbc,

If you are infected with Alureon, the Master Boot Record (MBR) is normally altered by a Rootkit in a way that the infection will even survive a complete format of the hard drive.

Yesterday, when the computer would still boot, a little bit of patience and following some sound instructions as presented could have worked you through it, with our assistance. That is water under the bridge. However, if you plan to continue doing "your thing" in any way shape or form, please do not waste our time.

Where you are at right now, looks as if a damaged/corrupted Master Boot Record (MBR) precludes the Operating System from loading.

You need to fix the Master Boot Record before you can boot.

Need to load up the XP Recovery Console. Do you have a Windows XP CD?

You have got to be kidding me. Patience, patience? When you have time please review my threads from the beginning. You will quickly see that i had tons and tons of patience.

The problem was i had three or four different guys jumping in telling me contradictory information and then after trying every different method recommended to the T , nothing improved my system.

After following along step by step in two separate threads on two different subjects i got to the point of realizing this is going in circles, check for yourself , after running DDS as requested to start and following all the steps in order i , on day three was asked to run DDS again

So what did i do, i thanked everybody and respectively said i'm closing out my topic and if i found a solution to PumHijackHo i would report back with a fix in case someone else ran into the same problem.

Not shockingly, after i close out my topic one helper appears and tells me to do the exact same thing i did in my first post , run DDS again.

I have not asked for help with that topic since, yesterday i was very busy and needed a download link because i was going to be on my parents computer and wouldn't have net access.

I was not back home with net access till the following morning, yes all night working on it. I then see a post saying don't waste are time .

Thanks but no thanks guys

Take care

yup Herbc I think there were too many cooks in the kitchen too. Do let us know how it turns out.

herbc,

Ahhh!!! Understand your frustration, particularly when there are too many cooks (4 already on this thread

and 4 also on the previous thread!!)

And then on this thread, instructions are followed to a "T"...

Post #6, on WDO:
If the computer is infected with Alureon, please do not use Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) or Windows Defender Offline (WDO) to remove it.

...couldn't seem to get their computer to work with Defender Offline...

Requested not to run WDO, but ran it anyway.
