If a ComboFix log has been requested by a helper then please create one by following the instructions below.</p> <p>The first thing you should do is print out this guide, as we will close all the open windows and programs, including your web browser, before starting the ComboFix program. </p> <p>Next you should download ComboFix from one of the following URLs:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/combofix" cla ss="goodurl">BleepingComputer.com</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.infospyware.net/antimalware/combofix/" rel="nofollow" class="goodurl">InfoSpyware.net</a></li> </ul> <p>To download ComboFix, simply left-click on one of the links above and you wil l see a prompt similar to the figure below.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p align="center"><img src="how-to-use-combofix_files/download.jpg" alt="Downloa d ComboFix Screenshot" height="274" width="407"><br> <strong>Download ComboFix Prompt</strong></p> <p align="center">&nbsp;</p> <p align="left">Click on the <strong>Save</strong> button, and when it asks you where to save it, make sure you save it directly to your Windows <strong>Deskt op</strong>.

At this point you should do the following:</p> <ul> <li>Close all open Windows including this one. <br> </li> <li>Close or disable all running Antivirus, Antispyware, and Firewall programs as they may interfere with the proper running of ComboFix. Instructions on disabling these type of programs can be found in <a href="http:/ /www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html" class="goodurl" target="_new" >this topic</a>.</li> </ul> <p>Once these two steps have been completed, double-click on the ComboFix icon

found on your desktop. Please note, that once you start ComboFix you should not click anywhere on the ComboFix window as it can cause the program to stall . In fact, when ComboFix is running, do not touch your computer at all. The scan could take a while, so please be patient.</p> <p>Once you double-click on the icon, you may see a screen similar to the one be low. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p align="center"><img src="how-to-use-combofix_files/open-file-warning.jpg" alt ="Windows Open File Security Warning" height="310" width="406&quot;&quot;"><br> <strong>Windows Open File Security Warning</strong></p> <p align="center">&nbsp;</p> <p align="left"> Windows is issuing this prompt because ComboFix does not have a <a style="text-decoration: underline; border-bottom: 0.075em solid rgb(0, 46, 1 84); padding-bottom: 1px; color: rgb(0, 46, 184); background-color: transparent; " class="itxtrst itxtrsta itxthook" href="#" id="itxthook6" rel="nofollow"><span id="itxthook6w0" class="itxtrst itxtrstspan itxthookspan" style="background: no ne repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; font-size: inherit; font-weight: inherit; co lor: rgb(0, 46, 184);">digital</span><span id="itxthook6w1" class="itxtrst itxtr stspan itxthookspan" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; fo nt-size: inherit; font-weight: inherit; color: rgb(0, 46, 184);"> </span><span i d="itxthook6w2" class="itxtrst itxtrstspan itxthookspan" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; font-size: inherit; font-weight: inherit; colo r: rgb(0, 46, 184);">signature</span></a>.
