Loading ...A couple of weeks ago my Malwarebytes program stopped opening. I figured it was some Windows update that had screwed it up. I deleted the program and reloaded it a couple of times … no soap. I wasn’t too worried I scanned my machine with AVG and Superantispyware and they didn’t find anything wrong. About this time I noticed that my computer was sure running a lot, bunches of CPUs being used when I had hardly anything open. I looked at the Task Manager but wasn’t able to figure it out. This morning I started the computer in Safe Mode and was able to finally run Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes found 6 or 7 Rootkit Trojans on my computer. After deleting them, Malwarebytes now opens normally and my computer is no longer running like crazy with nothing open. I’d guess that my computer was being used by someone for bitcoin mining or else in DOS attacks.
THANK YOU MALWAREBYTES!
