Hi, Downloader.Purityscan.R has infected ?hkdsk.exe and I cannot get rid of it. I have tried TDS-3, AVG, Trojan Hunter 4, The Cleaner, and nothing gets rid of it. So I thought I would post my Hijack Log and see what people could do.

Thanks for the help.

Before we begin, please be sure that HiJackThis is in its own folder. This will allow us to use backups to restore entries if necessary. Please do not put HiJackThis in a temporary folder, or on the Desktop. I suggest using 'c:\program files\hijackthis\' or C:\HiJackThis\, but any name you choose is fine.

Reboot in Safe Mode* and run HiJackThis. <-- IMPORTANT

Check the following items in HijackThis.

Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked.

While still in Safe Mode*, delete the following: (you may need to show hidden files**)
C:\Windows\System32\p2cochk.exe
C:\Program Files\Common Files\tsa\ <-- delete entire folder
C:\Windows\System32\aaupdt.exe
C:\Windows\System32\p2mcorer.exe

Also, uncheck the boxes for hiding known file extensions and hiding protected operating system files. We want to see it all. When we finish here, it would be a good idea to rehide the protected operating system files but leave the rest to be shown.

Reboot in normal mode.
