Greetings,
Please bear with me. I am not technically savvy. I know enough to be dangerous, therefore try not to "do this at home". The first hdd was the .exe trojan-. The second was my bad. I had removed my kitty pictures from my external before I put it away. I put in the pendrive to view and bingo- the serpent was back. Oblivious, I kept on buzzing around (had avg home) until the serpent locked me out, took my c dr and turned it into x. DEAD. I finally got my acer back. The very first day, I tried to do everything correctly to ensure safety. I immediately downloaded AVG and got the toolbar virus. One day. I called avg, they remoted in and now not only do I still have the virus it is turning into a serpent. I am giving this information because I do not always explain things well nor coherently. I may misunderstand your questions and give absolutely absurd answers. With this being said, to the nut of the matter:
I have an Acer Aspire One Win 7 starter that I upgraded to full 7. Anomalies began to occur. Small but warnings. After AVG remoted and it worsened, I am very ashamed to say that all common sense left me ( lost my kitty pictures). I was in such fury that it not quite clear the the steps I did next. It had not locked me out of C. But took control of user rights. It attached the c drive to X. Every time I boot up I rcvd 'not genuine copy of micros'. Since this did not seem to be as bad as the other, I created dban. It ate it for lunch, twice and left a very small used bite when I reformatted the usb. Nope, not going there again. To date, I have thrown away, 15 usb, 14 sd, 3 external hdd, it murdered my external cd/rom. It can read my password and access point and has control over the internet. I changed my password and access points enough that they no me by name. That is when I completely lost it. I believe this to be what I have done: Set factory default 5 times, nope. Tried to take ownership back through advanced permissions ACCESS DENIED. From here it gets fuzzy. Knowing that it had control of cmd.exe, I decided to confuse it, welcome to my world. I booted up, hit ctrl, alt, delete 20 times in succession, thinking that it could not thwart all that in such a short order of time. I let the boot go thru, I typed in cmd.exe, Mr. Sulu I have the com. I now have the full list of windows commands to kill the serpent AND I DON'T know what they mean. One listed looked very promising, Boot- in my pea brain it occur to me that my luck had run out and to come to you. I do not have an installation disc. I thought maybe it I booted from the cmd a copy of win 7 (have key) It woud mash, kill, burn, throw in a vat of acid the serpent. I hope I have made some kind of sense (oh yeah, I went into safe mode with cmd to get to this point) Feel free to ask anything, I will answer as best as possible.
Now that I have written the sequel to War and Peace, I ask:
If you have any solutions, advice, direction or a hammer, I would greatly appreciate any help and actually listen to it. If there is no solution, I thank you for taking the time to read this (and not fall into a coma).
Many regards, addhdd- oh one more thing- I am not lazy I did look all over for an answer before I came here.
