Hello: Please help me! I've been fighting with a virus for a week on my HP Pavilion laptop, it will not allow me to use my internet browsers (Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer), it seems to have turned off my display (screen is black, no image when I shine a flashlight on the screen when booting), however if I attach an external monitor it comes up with no problems. When I try to activate the laptop in monitor in display properties it tries, but will not activate my laptop screen. I've run ccleaner, mcafee, system mechanic and malwarebytes (had to change the name of the exe to get this to run, but it will not allow me out to the internet to update the software). I am an IT person and totally at my wits end with this laptop. PLEASE, any help will be GREATLY appreciated....I'm really trying to avoid wiping my hard drive because I do not have a copy of XP. Thanks, Megan Here is my Hijack This log...ran in safe mode...can run in normal mode if you need me to. Thanks again!

Hey megz77 Please reboot your computer into Safe Mode With Networking by doing the following: • Restart your computer • After pressing the power button, repeatedly tap the F8 key. • Instead of Windows loading as normal, the Advanced Options Menu should appear; • Select the option to run Windows in Safe Mode With Networking, then press Enter. • Choose the administrator's account. Now, please download ComboFix. With ComboFix, at the download window, please rename it to Combo-Fix(.exe) before downloading it. Save it to your Desktop. Please disable all security programs, such as antiviruses, antispywares, and firewalls. • Run Combo-Fix.exe and follow the prompts. • Accept the End-User License Agreement. • Allow the Recovery Console to be installed. • When you see the window below, click on Yes. • When the Recovery Console has been installed, click on Yes to start the scan. **Understand that things like your system clock changing and your desktop disappearing might happen. Do not worry, because all will be restored later. • Wait for the scan to be fully completed. • If it requires a reboot, please do so. • After the scan has completed entirely, please post the log here. The log will be located at C:\ComboFix(.txt) Do not click on the ComoboFix window, as it may cause it to stall. Best Regards
Hi cdavefrew....I will do this tonight when I get home from work and post the log here. Thanks again for your help!
Ran combo-fix. It fixed quite a few problems. My laptop was set to chkdsk upon first reboot and this would not work prior to running to combo-fix. My system time and date are in military time, and I still cannot get my monitor to function on my laptop. I'm going to run McAfee because it keeps trying to run. There was nothing in the log except the following...

Hi cdavfrew, I am running Windows XP, should I still try the Antivir Rescue CD? Safe mode is working, chkdsk ran (I think it totally ran, I left the room when it was in 5 of 5 and when I came back later my laptop was off), and IE and Firefox are working better than before (not redirecting to crazy websites telling me to buy rouge antivirus software). Do you think I need to try re-installing my display driver? I have an ATI video card and turned off the ATI service when I kept getting multiple instances of ati2evxx.exe proceses running on my machine. Do you think this could have to do with why I cannot see my laptop monitor but can see the display if I connect my laptop to an external monitor? The laptop showed no signs of the lcd going bad...I did the flashlight test and cannot see any graphics, so it's not a backight issue. Any more help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for all of your help so far!
Hello again. I tried re-running Combofix. I was reading through some forums and noticed that it said to make sure you save the exe to your desktop. I was running it from a flash drive. Sorry about that.... Here's my Combo-fix log....hopefully this helps. Let me know if you still want me to try the rescue disk you suggested as well. Thanks again!

Hey Megan Ahhh... that's better. Your log looks clean now. Perhaps your laptop monitor has spoiled, and you might want to try bringing it to a computer repair shop to check it. I would also like you to follow these instructions: Find this folder- C:\Qoobox, zip it up, and upload it to http://www.uploadmalware.com/ Best Regards
Hello again cdavfrew Thanks so much for your help, the laptop is running great now, except for the monitor that is. When I got into Display Properties, Settings, my laptop is seeing both my external monitor that I am running off of currently, and my LCD laptop screen, however, when I try to toggle between screens (function F4 on my laptop) my external monitor flashes black, then comes back up. It seems like it's trying to switch to the LCD, but something is holding it up. Also, when I try to drag my #2 monitor to be the #1 monitor, it will not allow me to check "make this my primarty display". I tried disabling monitor #2, but apparently I didn't do this correctly because all it did was disable the ATI driver and revert to the basic display drivers. Any suggestions on things to try? I will follow your instructions and zip up the Qoobox and upload when I get home tonight. Thanks again for all of your help! You're a life saver!
Hey Megan Sadly, I cannot determine what is wrong with your laptop moniitor without physical access. Perhaps you should get it to a computer repair shop instead. Best Wishes
Unfortunately money is a big issue right now, and I don't want to get ripped off it it's just something that's disabled due to whatever virus I had. I guess I'll have to just keep searching Google (no help so far, but maybe a miracle will happen). Thanks again
Hey megz77 Sorry to hear that you cannot fix your computer at a computer repair store... problems like yours can be quite tedious in research for a fix, as it can be due to driver, wire, video card, etc problems, and can be quite hard to narrow down. Wish you good luck though! Best Regards
Thanks...I'll probably just wait until after the holidays and take it in to be repaired. BTW< my laptop picked up Antivirus 2009 again. I was able to clean it quickly this time....but wow, is this an agressive virus. Any suggestions to keep it at bay? Apparently it disables my mcafee. I had to re-enable everything once I cleaned it.
