Re: Run, cmd not working

Despite full scanning with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Version 1.36 I have not
found any problems. Using DB version 2060 as I am still unable to get a later
version because the update feature fails (as it does with AVG 8.5). I have
manually updated AVG and done a full scan but nothing has been detected.

Thanks for all suggestions and help.

As after midnight in the UK I will retry on Thursday to diagnose/rectify the
problem.

Hi Thanks

Regedit doesn't work
I'll update AntiMalware manually and try a full scan.

Thanks for now

Hi

Cmd.exe window does appear at all. It has done before
Task Manager works.
Msconfig works
Anti-Malware runs and scans but finds nothing on a quick scan (Ver 1.36
Db2060)
AVG 8.5 scans but finds nothing now. Previously has removed PUP Tool.AX and
virus Win32/Heur.
I get a command prompt window if I run "command" (that is something new to
me)

I cannot open a command prompt window from the Run dialogue box.

Also cannot get auto updates for my AVG 8.5 AV and Anti-Malarebytes
programmes. IE7 works fine though.

Need some new angle of attack if it's a virus/trojan as I can't find one.
Tried scans in safe mode and with HiJack This I can't see anything obviously
bad.

any help suggestions greatly appreciated regards IanC

Has CMD ever worked?
What do you see when you run CMD?
Does COMMAND work? (not the same program)
Does regedit work?
Does Task Manager work?

If you run Malwarebytes (and I wish you would) are you saying you
can't do an update? What happens when you try to do an update? Does
it run at all?

Learn something new everyday!

Does regedit work?

My Malwarebytes DB is 2079 and I updated today.

Try to update your MBAM and do a FULL scan.

See, regedit is an important clue, hence my question :)

Yes - Malwarebytes is the thing to run.
