So somehow I've just gotten a rootkit infecting my system, it's resident in memory and might even be in the boot sector. I didn't do anything other than open an attached Jpeg file from a friend that I thought was corrupted.
I'm having major problems with this. ESET NOT detects it but it cannot clean it. Both my Malwarebytes and Spybot S&D won't execute when I run them because this thing blocks them. I have tried Gmer in safe mode to detect the rootkits and it finds several entries but they are greyed out and there are no options to delete the services.
