Hi,

Nothing bad.

RegCure This is a legit program but Registry Cleaners are not recommended. When you run it, if it removes the wrong entry or entries( and they sometimes do) it will make your system inoperable, if it removes orphaned entries you will notice no difference in system performance. I would uninstall this via the Add Remove Programs in the Control Panel.


Lets check a few other things.


Go to this site RootRepeal

Scoll down until you see the Download heading. You can download it in either RAR or ZIP format. Use whatever is easiest for you.
  • Extract the RootRepeal.exe file from the RAR or ZIP.
  • Disable your antivirus, antispyware, and firewalls before continuing or they may block RootRepeal from running properly.
  • Now run the RootRepeal.exe program by double clicking on it.
  • On the botton click the Files tab and then click the Scan button
  • A Select Drives form will open. Select all of your drives by checking the boxes and then click OK.
  • It will start scanning. Wait for it to finish. It can take awhile depending on how many drives, how many files, how many folders…etc. Be patient.
  • When it finishes, click Save Report and save it somewhere you can easily find it (like your Desktop)
  • Name it NRRlog.txt
  • Copy and Paste to log into this thread.





Please run this free online virus scanner from ESET
  • Note: You will need to use Internet explorer for this scan
  • Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
  • Click Start
  • When asked, allow the activex control to install
  • Click Start
  • Make sure that the option Remove found threats is ticked, and the option Scan unwanted applications is checked
  • Click Scan
  • Wait for the scan to finish
  • Use notepad to open the logfile located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt
  • Copy and paste that log as a reply to this topic

All the scans are coming up clean, you may have some sort of windows issues, why don't you post here in our windows forum

http://forums.whatthetech.com/Microsoft_Windows_f119.html





  • How did I get infected in the first place ?
    Read these links and find out how to prevent getting infected again.
  • Tutorial for System Restore <– Do this first to prevent yourself from being reinfected.
  • WhattheTech
  • Grinler BleepingComputer
  • GeeksTo Go
  • Dslreports



Keep in mind if you install some of these programs. Only ONE Anti Virus and only ONE Firewall is recommended, more is overkill and can cause you problems. You can install all the Spyware programs I have listed without any problems. If you install Spyware Blaster and Spyware Guard, they will conflict with the TeaTimer in Spybot , you can still install Spybot Search and Destroy but do not enable the TeaTimer .



Here are some free programs to install, all free and highly regarded by the fine people in the Malware Removal Community
  • Spybot Search and Destroy 1.6
    Check for Updates/ Immunize and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis. If you install Spyware Blaster ( Recommended ) then do not enable the TeaTimer in Spybot Search and Destroy.
  • Spyware Blaster It will prevent most spyware from ever being installed. No scan to run, just update about once a week and enable all protection.
  • Spyware Guard It offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts, again, no scan to run, just install it and let it do its thing.
  • IE-Spyad
    IE-Spyad places over 6000 web sites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  • Firefox 3 It has more features and is a lot more secure than IE. It is a very easy and painless download and install, it will no way interfere with IE, you can use them both.
