Instead of creating a new thread about this I thought to post it here. The FBI virus is getting nastier and almost impossible to remove. Here is what I encountered so far with the newer versions of it:
1. No matter what profile you log into it shows.
2. Sometimes I can get into Safe Mode: lately not so much.
3. Scanning as a secondary drive from another computer I am finding squat. Am I doing something wrong? If I am I can't think of what.
4. Resulting in a lot of rebuilds and that is getting old fast even though my company makes money off of it.
5. One computer that had the variation where even in Safe Mode I can't do anything, I was successful in using MS's bootable CD for Windows Defender and it cleaned it enough so I can load and update Malwarebytes in Safe Mode and clean up the rest plus a lot of manual removals. Malwarebytes is good but far from perfect.
6. That CD didn't work for others though; grrrr..... Meaning I run it and it reports the PC is clean. What the hell???
Any new tools especially something I can boot from that I can use to fight the fight? Again rebuilding this PC's especially when there is a question where the customer put the MS Office license and all their other programs becomes more of a hassle than it's worth.
I should have been a truck driver when I had the chance. :-D
