Need Help: Virus Attack, Power Surge, Blue Screen and More (In That Order)?
I would describe my luck as ungodly bad.
I started out getting the antivir solution pro virus on my system.
For hours i ran malwarebytes, antivirus pro, and avast security scans on my entire system. (Full Scans Mind You).
I restarted my computer, once, and when i restarted went from a driver screen to a black screen.
I figured out how to get my system to safe mode, i pressed f8 during the driver screen then selected one of two options i had for running the system. Ive never had to do that before, in fact i didnt even know that the option existed. I restarted the system and selected the second option. My system made it to the xp loading screen then . . . black screen. I went back through the whole process, pressed f8, then selected run the system in normal mode. Alas, back to my error ridden screen.
I decided that i would download spy doctor, as one forum suggested, then put on a flash drive in order to install it on my other computer as it would not allow me to access the internet, let alone download anything (even at full signal strength). I got it on the flashdrive, rebooted my computer, WENT INTO SAFE MODE, began installing spy doctor then . . . power surge, thunderstorms outside. I restarted the computer, went back into safe mode, fully reinstalled spy doctor, which was wrongly convinced that it yet existed. I attempted without success to run spy doctor in safe mode, my safe mode wont allow scans or internet connection. I restarted the computer and went to normal mode, attempted to run spy doctor and dsicovered my arch-nemesis . . . THE BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH! (nooooo). I was thoroughly demoralized until i restarted my computer and all was fine until i double clicked on the rapidly becoming malpractice ridden spy doctor and, well, blue screen (EGAD). I uninstalled spy doctor promptly. I read a forum post where a tech support - er, from the company that brought us death-spy-dotor suggested i download spy doctor 4, instead of 5 which i was, apparently, using. My computer will not allow me to excecute the .exe file necessary to run the SD4 setup, bastards. I did try the "run" too in the start menu, it didnt work.
I got the virus from pirate bay, without downloading anything, and i was on the main screen.
I have alot of experience with tackling viruses, this one baffles me.
These are the sights i have been to.
http://pc.errorsfix.org/windows.php?seed=blue-scre...
The intitial scans turned up Nothing.
I had visited more sights while trying to find a solution, the computer im using wont let me view them in history. Just guess at the google searchs, in my haste they were simple.
SpyDoctor 4 is working! (At the moment)
Ran SpyDoc, 22 threats detected total, costs money imnot willing to spend to remove. Malware & Anti Spyware came up blank again.
Virus is finally gone, woo hoo. And just to catch up, system restore just caused a blue screen, i restarted from last known working configs.
User rlkill, then updated malwarebytes an vuala.
And one more thing, one of my original problems, that my system requires me to hit f8 and select a driver to run the system with on boot up or it goes to a black screen, is still present.

First, you are using the wrong scanner. Restart your computer in safe mode with networking. Once loaded, click start > run (Xp and Windows 7) (for Vista click start and type the following command in search) > type inetcpl.cpl > ok. In the internet properties window click on the advanced tab > Click on the button to "Restore advanced settings" > click also on the button to "Reset" internet explorer settings. This should reset your internet connection. Next, download, update and choose a full scan with Malwarebytes. When the scan is finished remove anything detected. Follow this with a scan with Superantispyware again removing anything found.

I'll give you my background information on this specific rouge anti-virus:
I had the Antispyware Soft variant of this one that you have now like about a few months back. From a last Yahoo Answers question I saw about this, I was pretty shocked. It seems to have evolved because I simply used Malwarebytes (twice and full scan) in Safe Mode. I even have the logs to prove it (message me if you want to see them^-^) :P
