Post Anti-Malware doctor
How do I remove anti malware doctor if i'm not the administrator? I recently contracted a virus program known as anti-malware doctor, and I am having some difficulty getting rid of it. The fact that I am unable to go into safe mode or download any programs that might remove it isn't helping any. If anyone out there has an alternative solution please let me know, thanks!

Try Malware Bytes, it's a pretty damn good anti-malware tool. It should be able to scrub it off.

If it's what I'm thinking it is, then you can kill it like how I did. Start up your computer as usual, then mash the task manager button as fast as you can when you log in. If you can get task manager open before it starts blocking all new processes, then you can end it, then go into msconfig, and remove it from your startup, and delete the files.

If you need something like a last resort, use combofix.

Every time I used it, it worked, but in one case it completely obliterated daemon tools because of its auto start.

www.eset.com has an online scanner, run that, then run your computer through malwarebytes, almost guaranteed to kill it.

I got that recently. Blew it up with http://killbox.net/ if I remember correctly. However, Malwarebytes is excellent.
