I got the Antimalware Doctor virus

thread starter Johasua Sep 14 2010 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

Ok guys so I got this virus. It's called Antimalware Doctor, and I think some of you might know what it is. I've tried a couple of tutorials on how to get rid of it, and I finally got one of the recommended virus scanning thingies (Malewarebyte's Antimalware) to start scanning. I checked back on the scanning in like an hour or so to find that my computer has rebooted. It's done that twice now. How do I keep my computer from rebooting? And are there any other solutions to get rid of this virus? I can't get into the registry editor btw. Thanks

Malwarebytes themselves state that it can remove this. Either something else is at play, or you are doing a full scan which gives enough time for your computer to reboot again (so do the quick scan, which should be enough to find it, unless your computer is slow and you have a lot of files). Try using RKill if it doesn't work, then resort to Malwarebytes after. The link there offers the download link and an explanation for this program.
