J.exe is a trojan virus. Remove it from your start up by going to Run>msconfig>startup and unchecking it. Then goto run again and type regedit. browse to these 3 places and delete any keys related to j.exe.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Cur rentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Run

Then once it is disabled delete j.exe from C:\Windows\System32.
You now just removed a virus manually.

Please follow this procedure...

Since you are infected, its most likely you have more than one infection.

Have you tried booting to safe mode and running malwarebytes? IF you can't get malwarebytes to run, try combofix.

Please follow the directions carefully and post the log file if you can get it to run.

Did you ever clean up your computer from the infections you had back in August or is this a continuation of that problem? Here is your post from August...

omg!

If you never got it cleaned up then you need to take the hard drive out of your system and slave it to another system and scan it using a fully updated antivirus/malware program and let it delete whatever it finds. Then put it back in your system and scan it again using your own fully updated antivirus and Malwarebytes.

If you cleaned up your infection in August and you are reinfected again, then you need to learn good surfing habits.

1. Don't visit porn sights
2. Don't click on any popup ads
3. Scan your system on a daily basis to keep it somewhat in decent shape.
4. Don't open any email from unknown people.

change the name of the .exe file for malewarebytes and/or combofix and it will run just change it to whatever you want like eateagaege.exe or aera3r.exe. The virus probably knows of these programs and stops them from running but once you change the exe file name it will run.
