Hacked and unable to clean pc
Merlin1350 So if it's a ME exploited virus then you will not be able able to get rid of it with out patching the ME exploit, its part of the reason that you need to keep on top of the cpu etc updates, then there is also the chance that you've had a shadow remote system etc etc..
Your best bet is to isolate each machine, and do a clean media install, no backups just clean straight media.. and check on a clean router/switch.. Also check those and make certain nothing is using those which shouldn't be.
Your other option is if you can see the IP that is being transmitted to, lock that down in your routers firewall, literally block it, not a perfect solution but at least a temporary one.
Robert_Graham thanks for the quick reply ! There must be over 75 ip addresses stored somewhere on the pc as I cannot find anything ! I am looking for a windows 11 pro disk now as I reached out to a few local friends for help ! Good advice as I am working with opening a ticket with the router firewall company now as we speak ! Also going the mfg route as we speak ! As far as I know everything is at the latest as I spent most of yesterday reviewing !
