UVK forums

Got a netbook in - lady fell for the fake error message scam and called them, let them remote in and, when she didn't have a form of payment that they wanted, they locked her out with SYSKEY. Got control by restoring the registry hives from the RegBackup folder.

Now, just double-checking, cleaning, etc. At the moment, I've checked off MBAM, Roguekiller, AswMBR, ADW and AvastBC. MBAM installed but didn't run/scan; RK was skipped altogether; aswMBR ran fine; ADW doesn't run consistently (sometimes updates but doesn't run); and AvastBC was skipped as well.
Went to run the entire group again and it only ran UAK, all the others were skipped.

In my Pc worked fine the scans somedays ago. When I get home I'll see if they are running correctly or not. Thanks for reporting this Xander

Only MBAM not working for me...

I have noticed Mbam not working for me either. I ran: Reset DNS, Reset host file and DNS, Reset IP Winsock and Proxies, Reset Group Policies, Reset and Fix Firewall, and Reset Registry and file perms. Then ran Mbam again.

Nothing.

So I ran the same fixes listed above again and then Mbam again. It worked the second time.

I took that to mean maybe: Reset DNS IP Winsock blah blah failed the first time through. But running policy fix and reg and file perms fix allowed it to work the second time around. Maybe the order of operations should be looked at? I could not test it again as I have not come across the same situation again.

That's my 2 cents.

Do you have the latest version of uvk brink? Because now is working fine for me. My dad had to change it because MBAM is now version 3.x.x. What version do you have of uvk? Thanks

I do now. And working. Thanks

Actually, I was going to post that RogueKiller hasn't been running lately. Says it's updating and then moves on to ADW.

I tested it a few days ago and it was fine I will test it again. Thank you Xander

Hi Xander, Can you please telll me in what version of windows and UVK have you tried running Roguekiller, Please? Because it is working for me in the latest verion version of UVK on windows 10. Thank you!

Running it right this very second on a Win7 Home Premium with the (always) most recent UVK. Last one it skipped the scan on was also Win7.

For UVK's built-in scans, I opt for UAK, MBAM, RK, ADW and AvastBC. For reference, the Avast Browser Cleanup is also getting skipped most of the time. So, for me, it goes right from MBAM to ADW to my third party list.

Ok Xander thank you. I tried on Vista and windows 10 latest version of UVK and worked fine. I will try it on windows 7.
