combofix Access is denied error

[Gamezertruth]

I have a strange problem yesterday with combofix and got error code while combofix is done a scan !

combofix & RogueKiller & adwcleaner and  all other tool’s won’t scan fast but it’s scan slowly ! lol

combofix take more then 20 to 30 min as the other tools take a Little of min !

Code: [Select]

/wow section - STAGE 6
Access is denied.
.
/wow section - STAGE 38
Access is denied.

Did you disable the AV temporarily while running this combo fix? and on elevated command prompt?
                     If you have already done these, please see that some programs like rootkit is residing to prevent the use of combofix from scanning. I would rather suggest hitmanpro to run to find these  type of inherent hidden rootkits. If hitman pro is not a free program.
                                 Just download JRT by thisusu. It is effectively cleaning these rootkits. I think that the program is attacking the dns somehow, and also have registry entries to not allow combo fix. I will try to help you after these steps are attempted.

I have to temporarily disable anti-virus, but the problem still there and may be the reason is the drive of AntiVirus that plugged itself in network area so maybe should I completely remove the AntiVirus ?

Hi,
               You could temporarily disable the antivirus and then run this on elevated command.
There will be options in the settings to temporarily disable the AV. Particularly the real time protection is to be turned off while running this tool. Am I correct Shane?

I've had to disable all security features including real protection, however, the first time that I get this error of combofix

hi, Did you try Thisusu JRT tools from Bleeping.com

[Gamezertruth]

hi, Did you try Thisusu JRT tools from Bleeping.com

Never had that error with combofix before, but yeah, some AVs, even when you turn them off dont actually shut off like they are suppose to!

Hi, Gamez,
                     Your computer is clean. that means you have got rid off the issue. Why not tell how JRT fixed your problem so that it helps the others also. What is the file that prevented combo exe from working correctly. Which rootkit is responsible for this behaviour?

First, my computer is clean, which means that I have no infection/no rootkits thing yo there , however what are you talking about it is not a rootkit checker/scanner ? As in the previous post.! So I think that JRT tool is just a security tool to remove unwanted :O)

from JRT website

Junkware Removal Tool is a security utility that searches for and removes common adware, toolbars, and potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) from your computer

                                 Just download JRT by thisusu. It is effectively cleaning these rootkits. I think that the program is attacking the dns somehow, and also have registry entries to not allow combo fix. I will try to help you after these steps are attempted.

Hi, Gamez There are so many programs which helps in finding unwanted third party programs which are doing negative things such as injecting PUP, rootkits, trojan etc etc.
                       Junk ware removal tool removes all those things that are unwanted and it is also being updated by thisusu. It works on command prompt and it removes anything not wanted in your computer, or suspicious in nature. Before prescribing this, i have tested on my computer, in which it has removed unwanted exe and folders and files of the log file which is enclosed.
                          Trying JRT does not involve any risk and it has to be allowed only to do its work. It environment would not prompt you or you could not do anything in the middle. This program does help in cleaning unwanted things.
                                   Is it a risky program Shane. I am using for 2 years occasionally whenever i suspect weird behaviour in my computer

Hi, Since you reported that your system is clean, i do not know exactly what is the status. It seems that you are having some unwanted programs. Did you try JRT. what are the damages you presume that your system is said to have
