Re: Do you trust the uninstaller?

Hi all, we actually now have an easier fix for this one.

You may want to print out these instructions for reference, since you will have to restart your computer during the fix.

Please download AproposFix from here:

»swandog46.geekstogo.com/aproposfix.exe

Save it to your desktop but do NOT run it yet.

Then please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

Once in Safe Mode, please double-click aproposfix.exe and unzip it to the desktop. Open the aproposfix folder on your desktop and run RunThis.bat. Follow the prompts.

When the tool is finished, please reboot back into normal mode, and postthe entire contents of the log.txt file in the aproposfix folder.

Edit: Removed request for a HijackThis log...that pest doesn't appear on HJT logs. All I need is the log.txt file from the aproposfix folder

Glad to hear it! We can all thank Swandog46 from SpywareInfo (and other forums) for developing that tool

I ran the Aproposfix, but I don't understand the part about posting the contents of the log into the folder. I mean, I found the log and copied it, but where do I paste it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I had the problem, that I wanted to install Alcohol 120% and always had the Internal error 25001.25005 and 25001.250061.
After spending hours of investigating I suddenly found out that my device manager was completely emtpy. Then I investigated some more hours until I found information about this aproposfix. I ran it in safe mode, restarted and everything works perfectly again!!

Thanks to the developer of this great tool.Thanks a lot.

Wonderful thing! I installed, fallow the instruction and the computer was more responsive/faster and everything seem to work again!
I was looking for bunch of files that looked strange and dubious like "Cocrefox" and could not find any help from searching google,not a single link! Or traces that those words exist in the internet very strange. When I was looking in my registry my computer would crashed. My comp ran very, very slow and that is what made me suspicious, the lag and strange character would appear when typing, very scary wile working on Illustrator. The key was that I could not find the Device Manager and that search lead me to this place. I always new I had something, I ran Avg, HighJackThis,SpyPatrol, PestPatrol, SpySweeper, Spybot, AdAware,.... None of them could find the malware
Thank YOU, Thank You! For the fix
