I got a malware pack that the antivirus software I have used (awdware, norton, hitman pro,malwarebytes) can't get rid of. I am trying to manually uninstall it, but cannot find the files specified by the tutorials.
% %ProgramData%\*.
%CommonProgramFiles%\ComObjects*.exe
%windir%\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Temp\ Monkeytize.tlb
are some examples.
Is this because it's built off a different version of windows?

When the Zoek.exe download appears, save to the Desktop.
On the Desktop, right-click Zoek.exe and select: Run as Administrator
Give it a few seconds to appear.

Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware programs, so they don't interfere with the running of Zoek.exe.
You can find instructions how to disable your security applications here:

I always suggest that if you are highly infected to do this instead.

Especially if you know how.

Either way, up to you. We will be here to assist if wanted.
