Hi and Welcome,

NOTE:

Malware removal is NOT instantaneous, most infections require several courses of action to completely eradicate.
Absence of symptoms does not always mean the computer is clean
Kindly follow my instructions in the order posted.
Please DO NOT run any scans or fix items without my direction.

Please do the following:

NEXT

Please download DDS from either of these links

LINK 1
LINK 2

and save it to your desktop.

Disable any script blocking protection
Double click dds.pif to run the tool.
When done, two DDS.txt's will open.
Save both reports to your desktop.

—————————————————
Please include the contents of the following in your next reply:

DDS.txt
Attach.txt.

NEXT

[external image: Posted Image]
Download GMER Rootkit Scanner from here or here.

Extract the contents of the zipped file to desktop.
Double click GMER.exe. If asked to allow gmer.sys driver to load, please consent .
If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan…click on NO.

[external image: Posted Image]
Click the image to enlarge it
In the right panel, you will see several boxes that have been checked. Uncheck the following …
- Sections
- IAT/EAT
- Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
- Show All (don't miss this one)
Then click the Scan button & wait for it to finish.
Once done click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "Gmer.txt" or it will save as a .log file which cannot be uploaded to your post.
Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop, and post it in your next reply.

**Caution**
Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<— ROOKIT" entries
