My name is Jürgen and I will be assisting you with your Malware related problems.īefore we move on, please read the following points carefully. Is there a way to make sure I don't have any rootkits hidden on my laptop? Can malwarebytes detect stealthy rootkits? Thanks
But so far, I don't experience anything unusual and I don't ever want to experience it (thinking that the virus might just be "inactive") that's why I searched that in google and was informed of gmer. I don't know if my laptop is infected with a stealthy rootkit since what I read online is that any interference with GMER "MAY" be interpreted as a presence of a rootkit.
But sometimes before the blue screen appears, I was able to open GMER for, let's say less than a minute? and I was able to glance at some results, like Unknown mbr code and 3 other entries that I wasn't able to look at. I tried three times to open it, likewise 3 blue screens of death and 3 restarts. and bam, Blue screen of death, (my laptop is running on windows 8, 圆4) and it says that what I should search for later is: WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR something like that. But when I open it a dialogue box appeared that said something like " file:///C:/windows/system32/config/system: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." So I just closed it and opened it again.
So I tried to search on google on how to detect hidden processes, rootkits and such and there I read that GMER is a good rootkit/other suspicious stuff detector. So last night, I was still curious if my laptop was infected and the infections are just being stealthy. So, just this past 2 months I think my laptop was infected and posted here.
