Last night, my lovely's computer started kicking out messages about her disk being unreadable and she needed to run diagnostics. Thankfully she didn't.
I ran RKILL to get rid of the processes and am currently running a Malwarebytes full scan to hunt this thing down.
I checked Internet Options to see if there was a proxy server involved, but there does not appear to be any.
Problem I am having is I cannot 1) boot up to safe mode (it is asking for operating system to use) and 2)from Start tab, I cannot get to any screens to do a system restore.
Any ideas?
Ping!

Ms came up with a freestanding boot program that runs off a USB stick. I. Believe it is called system Sweeper. It may help you out.

boot into safe mode and run a boot scan.
Havn’t found anything it cant fix
remove it when you cure the system.
It is an ugly program, and you have to know what you are doing.
On the other hand, I have had 100% success with it no matter what malware a client picked up. BTW, you don’t need to pay for it, although I did.
I think your computer is afflicted.
