Hi I was wondering if anyone has come across malware that is so invasive non of the anti-viral / anti-spyware tools can detect or remove it. Recently we had one workstation that for whatever reason had its IE browser hijacked while doing google searches. The hijack appears to happen some of the time but not on all searches. The other thing that happens is that I can't open a cmd window on the machine or run regedit. I have run Symantec Endpoint Security, Kaspersky 5.x and several tools out on the internet to try to identify and stop this behaviour. The only thin I think of left is that its a registry virus or that the file is either JAvascript or ActiveX based and its hiding out somewhere (otherwise regular scans would have caught it).
I've looked at removal tools for Conficker, 7.7.7.0 hijack, etc... Removed System Restore data, cleaned up all Temp directory locations as best I can.
Any un-conventional ideas would be appreciated.
thanks.
