![]() Whatever this is, it directly attacks Malwarebytes (but does NOT attack Spybot or Avira) - in the full blown infection (prior to low level formatting the infected hard disk), it was impossible to install Malwarebytes without changing the name of the Malwarebytes install program to something else - attempting to install Malwarebytes without a name change generated an error message of MBAM_ERROR_LOAD_DATABASE (0,5).Īlso, just to be sure, after Malwarebytes installation, I changed the Malwarebytes executable (Mbam.exe) name to something else (in this case, explorer.exe)īUT even after all of that, Malwarebytes crashed during scanning giving, in one instance, the error message of MBAM_ERROR_CHECK_INFECTED (0,7).Īlso, a side symptom - by cutting and pasting the error message, "MBAM_ERROR_CHECK_INFECTED (0,7)" into Google search, once I actually located a web page with that error message, the virus actually shut down the browser (Firefox) the second it recognized "MBAM_ERROR_CHECK_INFECTED (0,7)" on the web page! So, some specific details followed by a Hijack This log, a Gmer log, a DDS log and a ComboFix log: This virus not only attacks Malwarebytes (makes it impossible to install Malwarebytes but also infects it if you manage to install it) but also attacks Ad-Aware (again, makes it virtually impossible to install, but if you get around that, then it won't run) but the really impressive thing is, it actually survived a full low level format (used Linux to literally write zeroes to every single sector. ![]()
