I have been facing a series of problems oy computer lately.My computer has been infected with spyware and trojans lately.Inspite of turning system restore off,disconnecting the net during scans,deleting the quarantines and scanning the system fully with avg,ad-aware and super anti spyware and system mechanic pro the trojans sem to be recurring back prominently the trojan win fixer and the trojan generic.They along with some adware seemingly modify and add some dll's to the windows folder in such a situation. Your assistance in solving the above will be highly appreciated.Is there any software that is specially meant for rewmoving trojans.

winfixer is a rogue. to remove it, disable ur system restore, clean up ur pc temps with ccleaner, and then try the Winfixer Removal Tool or Rogue Remover.

for manual removal instructions click here.

after this get ur hjt log auto-analysed at www.hijackthis.de just 2 b sure :D

The first link identified the spyware but asks for an upgrade to a paid version to remove them.Second rogue remover is not able to detect spyware detected by the scanner in the first link.ad-aware was also not useful.
Please suggest a proper free spyware scanner.

Can you give the name of the malware? It would help us in pin pointing the removal tool if available.

if it indeed is winfixer infection a safemode adaware scan shud v removed it. manual removal as u can c in the above link is a pain.

u can try vundofix.exe and/or SysProtect the new WinAntiVirus / WinFixer .

posting ur hjt logfile wud be a big help !

There is this generic trojan.ub always keeps adding dll files into the temp windows folder.Moreover I think zlob and erorsafe are present but I am unable to remove them as spyhunter is only able to detect them and one has to pay for a full version to remove the detected spyware .I have turned off sytem restore.
