Hi, I know I should know better but I downloaded a game from Piratebay and guess what ! Win32 trojan. AVP tried to remove but it kept replicating and I ended up with about 10 hits. Finally removed. Malwarebytes could not find any trace. Now I find everyday I have a scheduled upload job that my firewall blocks. I guess I have a rootkit. I tried to get into safe mode to run malwarebytes but F8 doesn't work. Running windows xp 32 bit. Anyone have a boot to kick me.

any help to figure out how to get into safe mode appreciated. tks

f8 should still work, just spam it during the post.

if you can burn a cd, boot from http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/rescuedisk and run the scan. cant hurt!

If you have a basic spare keyboard try booting up into safe mode with that connected, some of the more complex keyboards don't respond before Windows has loaded.

ok will try the other keyboard. I tried to make the boot disk but my writer at work won't recognize disk ! Anyway I came home early (dentist!) I checked task manager there is an upload to occur every 4 hours

C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Fix it Center\MatsApi.dll",RetryDataUpload

Also a config task also to run every 4 hrs

C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Fix it Center\MatsApi.dll",RunCollectConfigurationInfo

Likewise, while I was typing this I had a request from Mozilla to upload a plugin command-plugin.exe

This bad baby doesn't give up and has all the tricks.

thank you private firewall 7.0

I may have to reinstall.......Dumb me.

I've had good luck with safe mode, then combofix, and then malwarebytes. (I haven't run into that particular one yet though.)

I hope everyone who deactivated his firewall because it was "annoying" (don't laugh, I had customers like that!) has read this!

Please do not use combo fix if you don't know what you're doing
