Ramnit A and potentially other viruses which should i use?
Ok so i recently scanned my portable drive with the new malwarebytes 3.0, apparently didn't find anything on that.
As soon as i installed MSE the moment i started scanning the drive Malware bytes went nuts quarantining SVChost.exe and MSE keeps apparently cleaning and quarantining them as well along with some programs like team viewer but on the actual laptop and not located on my portable. It keeps apparently detecting Jeefos on SVChosts and tries to clean and quarantine every 2 minutes.
So my friend is letting me borrow one of his older laptops to use Windows 10 defender to scan it but it keeps freezing at about 3 quarters, so we had the idea of trying to scan it file by file. When i scanned my photos folder nothing was found but apparently scanning one of my other folders (EPSXE) it found 82 threats most of them Ramnit A's. The problem is i had to do an individual file scan because the entire HDD scan the scanning freezes and refuses to continue on
I'm at a loss of what to do it, of course defender offers the option of clean but i'm not 100% sure it will work and i have some old school stuff that im worried that those virtual images themselves could be infected.
So i was wondering should i try making a virtual image, connect the HDD directly there and scan or make an image of the laptop (with macrium reflect) as a restore and then plug it in and do a scan and try cleaning it? I remembered once on those images i tried a bit defender and avast scan and it cameup with these
( JS dropper AQ (trj), win32 rmndrp, win32:quolko, win32:Genmalicious-GOW[Trj],and win32:Crypt-SJB [Trj])
I want to try and save as many files as i possibly can.
