Pump.exe

Hello,

I have a laptop running Windows XP and I'm trying to remove a virus that I believe the file name is pump.exe. It seems like this virus has my laptop posessed. My internet doesn't work properly, I'm not able to go to the correct websites. It redirects me to somewhere else or just says I'm not able to connect with the site.

It won't let me install AVG, Ad-Aware, or any other kind of program. I tried to get into msconfig but not even able to do that. I even tried doing this under safe mode with no luck. It still has to be running even though I can't find it in Task Manager.

Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated in helping me to get this virus under control. As it probably would be easier to do, I'd hate to do a reformat. Thanks again.

not sure what you were gonna do with msconfig?
The Task Manager is not going to show any malware..

Can you do a System Restore under Safe Mode?

ComboFix should get your system back to where you can run any programs that the infection may have disabled. After running it, use Malwarebytes and your favorite antivirus programto clean out the rest of the nasties.

The virus or whatever pump.exe is; is preventing from ComboFix from running. I have tried to run it as an administrator even without any luck. Can I run combofix through DOS/Command Prompt maybe? If so, how can I?

I don't know off the top of my head. It always ran for me no matter how messed up things were. Check here: A guide and tutorial on using ComboFix

Does it allow you to run programs now? Such as installing and running Malwarebytes?

No, its still keeping any kind of anti-virus or anti-spyware program from installing onto the computer.

It's not something I've tried, but I've heard you can boot from a USB drive: Boot From A USB Flash Drive. Your motherboard would have to support this option. Once you've booted to a known good OS, you can run programs from the drive. An alternative would be a bootable CD.

What would be a good bootable CD to use? The motherboard doesn't support booting from a USB flash drive.
