PC Defender in System Restore

[Guest antioch]

Whilst having problems with a series of BSODs over the last couple of days,

 

I had a look in system restore with the mad thought in mind that at some

 

point it could help but mainly with the intention to check to see if I can

 

restore at any point during the 100 Software Distribution Service 3 entries

 

since Feb 24 2010.

 

Going back through all points, I was surprised that there were only 4 check

 

points and to my horror I saw that PC Defender had been installed on March

 

24.

 

If this is that rogue one that has been of interest for a while, then I

 

could find no trace in my system - probably too well hidden - but I have

 

done countless scans with MS Security Essentials, MBAM,SAS and a couple of

 

on-liners a couple of times since then. But I have read that it is a sod to

 

find and remove.

 

I cannot think what else it could be - apart from updates, nothing else has

 

been installed on the computer and I certainly have had no pop-ups with any

 

virus warnings. MBAM/SAS have removed some minor stuff on the odd occasion.

 

 

 

Reading recent probs with this SDS, I am aware that some have had problems

 

doing a SR prior to one of these entries.

 

My laptop has about 20 SDS enties and twice as many check points over the

 

same period.

 

 

 

Providing I can keep my computer stable, I was wondering if it worth trying

 

a system restore to a point just prior to this suspect rogue install or best

 

left to just drop out in time.
