Yessir, got to do my first Win8 malware removal today. Machine was a Christmas gift, and it has already required cleaning. Fortunately (since there still isn't a version of ComboFix for Win8), it didn't turn out to be anything too intense. TDSSKiller came up clean, and MBAM 1.7 found 119 PUP, almost all of which where MyWeb related, but there were several entries for software (toolbars, etc.) related to GamingWonderland.com, as well as Incredibar, and a couple of coupon toolbars and related stuff.

None of that was particularly difficult to remove, but I also noticed that TVFanatic.com's player was installed. That installs two or three nasty things (variable, but always including Yontoo), that MBAM still fails to detect, but both ComboFix and NOD32 (including the Online scanner) do remove.

Well, just for grins, I decided to run the computer's bundled AV software, McAfee, before I ran Eset's online scan. Amazingly, McAfee found no threats

One really interesting thing stood out when I compared the MBAM and McAfee scans. I ran full scans with both programs, and McAfee reported 191,310 items scanned, which included processes in memory, registry entries, files, etc. MBAM reported 368, 623 items scanned. Perhaps the term "full scan" doesn't mean what I thought it did?
