HP Pavilion dv6 64 Bit running Windows 7 Premium has been compromised because of peer2peer sharing...my own damn fault. Service Packs will not load correctly, Microsoft Security Essentials is running but is false never
showing malware. In safe mode there was a command with essentials that said -hide run key. There are no files in System Folder. Lots of files in System 32 but extensions are all over the place: .dll, .man etc. Whenever I try to make changes cmd32 prompt is
triggered and kills the effort. Changes have been made to the Registry. There are 2 or 3 copies of almost every Windows file on the machine. Some are booby trapped or are redirects. I did a clean Restore with factory disks 3 times now, twice paying for computer
tech professionals only to have it come back. The network has also compromised my Iphone 4S with a bootstrap program that even redirects the APP Store. I have done factory resets on IPhone, changed the home router and still have a persistent problem. This
issue has also compromised one other Machine running Windows Vista and another Machine running Windows 7.
I want to restore machine to a point without the registry changes. I want to get rid of all peer2peer networking files, logs, and all programs that do not belong. With that I hope to get a clean install of Itunes to
clean the IPhone and restore. I deal with tons of digital video and music through my job so the machine was ripe for the pickings as well as downloading videos through an app on the iphone. There were several downloaded programs paid for that seem to have
had an impact on the issue: WINCALENDAR Sapro Systems, Internet Download Manager, Speed Bits Accelerator, and a Pocket Remote Desktop with the IPHONE as well as using apps from IOS to download to the IPHONE. I also used a program to create a proxy and VPN
to hide the IP address which may have caused some issues. A hidden VPN loads on my IPHONE (see it through system log) but I do not know what program it is loading through. I have found hidden peer2peer programs within actual programs on the machine: Radeon
graphic program. Please assist in teaching me how to fix Windows 7 on this machine and remove any and all peer2peer programs, logs, and devives as well as possible malware. I also need to eliminate the changes to my registry. I would also be interested in
receiving advice on better ways to secure my devices amd browser and ideas on where I would be able to download safe programs from the internet as even the ones I paid for are giving me headaches.
Thank You.
I also forgot to mention the Drivers on the machine are a mess. Most drivers are actually listed as System32/drivers/HTTP or System32/Drivers/AFD.sys with many of them found in Device Manager under Hidden Devices.
