Hi,

I think my laptop is infected.
AVG popped up with a Trojan Horse Downloader Fraudload BB alert.
I attempted to remove the infection to no avail.
I ran a malwarebytes scan and no infections were found.
Just to be safe I did a system restore.
Despite my attempts my system seems slower and icons are disappearing.
I've attached my Hijack this log.
