Hey guys, I've got a nasty one I can't shake on my own. I can't delete the culprit files (msb.dll and nsrbgxod.bak), even with Killbox in safe mode. Here's the Hijack this and Malwarebytes log.

Hi,

Did you let MBAM clean its findings? If you didn't, please do so and post back produced report.


Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here or here or here.
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.
  • When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
    1. DDS.txt
    2. Attach.txt
  • Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.
