Okay so I reinstalled the program and everything worked fine, i did liveupdate, scanned it in safe mode, it found the trojans, I then disabled system restore to clear unwanted restore points, and turn it back on later.
One problem, I still get redirects and the same site keeps trying to attack me, there was this other site attacking from asia as well (it was .asia) but I didn't get the full name.
Problems: I ran TDSSkiller.exe as suggested, it removed some rootkits but it states "atapi.sys" is infected by a TDSS rootkit, and TDSSkiller does not remove it on reboot.
something called "tidserv" is still messing with my connection, it is fine on my other computers and it's connected wirelessly with the laptop, it works with google but when I try to go the the windowsupdate website it will act if the internet has been disconnected, but if I go to a common site it works, so I can't update windows from the site, also my firefox and internet explorer crash everytime I close them.
Small Concern: msnmsgr.exe I know is msn messenger, it seems like a legitimate executable file, but when I go into the windows live messenger file i find multiple msnmsgr.exe's and it goes as so "msnmsgr .exe" each one having another space before the .exe, I don't know if this is a virus, spyware or what, but it bothers me that it is spaced, because it seems fake to me.
Solution: How do I get rid of this rootkit, make my internet browsers work correctly and not crash upon closing them, update windows, and is my msn messenger safe, and how will I know if my computer is completely rid of these pests? I will turn on system restore after I have finished cleaning the computer.
I appreciate the help you've given me, but I need a little more, thanks.
