Hey guys newbie here,

I hope you can help me.

I'm having a trouble with Vista's uac control.It fails to block a specific .exe file.

I was browsing the internet yesterday when I realised I picked up something.An unknown application hmqrujsa.exe was appearantly trying to copy a command in thye OS source. I think it is trying to clone the uac.The uac prompted me to accept or block it.I obviously blocked it.The same message kept comming back.On safe mode I managed to locate the actual file in the app data folder and deleted it.Then I removed the additional keys in the registry editor and the temp folder. As soon as I restarted the computer the same message came back again.

Please help.

Hi,Thank for the reply,
I have been using both malwarebytes along with trend micro ( which has the firewall enabled ). I scanned the computer on both regular mode and safe mode .Neither of the apps could detect it. My AV is up to date and I have just downloaded another batch of update

Welcome
If you are certain you got the virus a few days ago, back a week before that with system restore and all will be good again.

Hi thanks,
I tried to restore the system to an earlier date but I have no restore point. I am 100% positive that I picked it up esterday at 11 AM. Immediately after that I followed the routine trouble shooting thing to get rid of it. The UAC is still prompting me to let that .exe file through the cmd . This is getting on my wick.

I assume that includes a set of MBAM updates?
Check the IE Add-ons - a lot of stuff gets re-installed through that route.
