Hello. So after hours of researching online, I believe I have the nasty ESQUL rootkit problem. When I try to click Internet Explorer, the message with the globalroot\system32\ESQUL[randomletters] pops up. When I click "OK" a windows message shows up telling me that JAVA isn't working properly and needs to be shut down. After that, IE appears to be running properly, but it probably isn't really, right?
I used to have Symantec Endpoint Protection, but the malware wouldn't let me run a scan, and so I tried deleting it with Hijackthis. I'm not sure if it worked, but basically I don't think I have any Anti-virus protection on my PC right now. I also stupidly tried running Combofix by myself, and the famous bluescreen showed up and I'd have to restart my computer.
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place, but please help me if you can! I would really appreciate it.
