Bastard of a Virus

[shea300]

Hello , I have a virus on my computer that has disabled all security tools i had and have tried installing. Including: AVG 2015 , Malware bytes , Bit defender , any reputable anti rootkit software. I receive the message: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000279) unins000.exe. thank you for any help

Boot into safe mode if you can and scan there.

Try using Bitdefender's free online malware scanner.

If all else fails, scan hdd from another computer or reinstall windows. Might need to do a system restore if you manage to rid of the virus, won't know the damage it's really done unless you got info on it by googling the process if you're able to identify it.

If you scans detect, write the name down and google for info on it.

try running a program called rkill.this should stop the virus from blocking your install of an antivirus tool.
