I cannot open my spybot, like the hourglass is on screen for a few seconds, then nothing.
I tried ad aware and got
win32backdoor.TDSS 2 counts
and unknown 1 counts.
I tried to remove, quarantine everything, nothing works.
I tried updating ad aware and it can't connect.
Combofix won't open.
Retried everything in safe mode for the hell of it, nothing.
