Please run the following file and it should fix the issue you have.

Afterwards scan your system for malware by doing the following.

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here or here and save it to your desktop.
  • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to
    • Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  • then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version. Please keep updating until it says you have the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • A log will be saved automatically which you can access by clicking on the Logs tab within Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

If for some reason Malwarebytes will not install or run please download and run Rkill.scr, Rkill.exe, or Rkill.com. If you are still having issues running rkill then try downloading these renamed versions of the same program.

EXPLORER.EXE
IEXPLORE.EXE
USERINIT.EXE
WINLOGON.EXE

But DO NOT reboot the system and then try installing or running Malwarebytes. If Rkill (which is a black box) appears and then disappears right away or you get a message saying rkill is infected, keep trying to run rkill until it over powers the infection and temporarily kills it. Once a log appears on the screen, you can try running malwarebytes or downloading other programs.



Download the HijackThis installer from here.
Run the installer and choose Install, indicating that you accept the licence agreement. The installer will place a shortcut on your desktop and launch HijackThis.

Click Do a system scan and save a logfile

Most of what HijackThis lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet.

When the hijackthis log appears in a notepad file, click on the edit menu, click select all, then click on the edit menu again and click on copy. Come back to your reply and right click on your mouse and click on paste.

Post the logfile that HijackThis produces along with the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware log
 
Thanks man,
I tryed everything but it doesn't works! Can't install or run any of theese programs! After the download I can't run the file!
I'm thinking to reinstall the OS and all of the drivers, but won't do it if there is some other solution!
thank you very much, write me if you know some other way to fix this problem!
 
What happens when you try to run the exehelper file? It's not an .exe file so it should run. What happens when you boot to safe mode and try to run it?
 
Can't start exeHelper, it happens nothing...can't run any of theese files that you had sent to me! I don't know how to boot to safe mode?!
 
To enter safe mode, you press the F8 key at bootup. So nothing happens when you open the exehelper.com file? How about downloading this file and tell me if it does anything.

Rkill.scr - http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/rkill.scr

If rkill opens and runs and produces a log then do not reboot the computer, run exehelper and you should be able to run exe files.
 
Well...i have entered to the safemode and started exehelper and he created a log, a .txt file where is written:

after that i tried to install avast antivirus program and IT WORKS!
After that avast done his job with deleting a viruses, but when I start windows normaly the story is the same, nothing works!

And this link, I can't install it!
 
Boot back into safe mode and perform a system restore. Pick a day before all these issues showed up.
 
My problem is resolved! When I pressed F8 button i had an option to do recovery, an after to perform toshiba recovery wizard...and after one hour I returned my pc to initial state, and now everything works very well!
Thank You for your help, thanks a lott!:)
