[Closed] cleaning neighbor's laptop

All,

I'm trying to clean my neighbor's laptop, but seem to be having trouble getting rid of everything (I think). He originally had Symantec (expired), which I replaced with Comodo Firewall and Avira Antivir. I managed to run Malwarebytes antimalware, Super Anti Spyware, and Spybot S & D. However, when trying to run Lavasoft AdAware, it seems to snag during the scan so I can't complete a full scan (in HJT log below, Lavasoft has been uninstalled).

Any help would be appreciated, as I'm about to tell him that we need to backup and format (which I really don't want to do, because I would probably be the one rebuilding his drivers, etc.).

HJT log is posted below.

Hi whiteheadw, welcome to the forum.

To make cleaning this machine easier

Please do not uninstall/install any programs unless asked to
It is more difficult when files/programs are appearing in/disappearing from the logs.
Please do not run any scans other than those requested
Please follow all instructions in the order posted
All logs/reports, etc.. must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In notepad click format, uncheck word wrap if it is checked.
Do not attach any logs/reports, etc.. unless specifically requested to do so.
If you have problems with or do not understand the instructions, Please ask before continuing.
Please stay with this thread until given the All Clear. A absence of symptoms does not mean a clean machine.

What symptoms are you experiencing?

We need to disable a program before we continue. Please leave it disabled until we are done.

SPYBOT TEATIMER

Launch Spybot S&D, go to the Mode menu and make sure "Advanced Mode" is selected.
On the left hand side, click on Tools, then click on the Resident Icon in the list.
Uncheck the "Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of overall system settings) active." box.
Click on the "System Startup" icon in the List
Uncheck the "TeaTimer" box and "OK" any prompts.
If Teatimer gives you a warning that changes were made, click the "Allow Change" box when prompted.
Exit Spybot S&D when done and reboot your computer.
(When we are done, you can re-enable Teatimer using the same steps but this time place a check next to "Resident TeaTimer" and check the "TeaTimer" box in System Startup.]

Please download ResetTeaTimer.zip and save to your Desktop. Extract (unzip) the file and double-click ResetTeaTimer.bat to run the script. This will remove all entries set by TeaTimer and it from restoring them upon reactivation).

Download OTL to your desktop.

Double click on OTL.exe to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
When the window appears, underneath Output at the top change it to Minimal Output
Check the boxes beside LOP Check and Purity Check.
In the window under Custom Scans/Fixes copy and paste the following

netsvcs
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
/md5start
eventlog.dll
scecli.dll
netlogon.dll
cngaudit.dll
sceclt.dll

%systemroot%\system32\*.dll /lockedfiles
%systemroot%\Tasks\*.job /lockedfiles
%systemroot%\system32\drivers\*.sys /lockedfiles
%systemroot%\System32\config\*.sav
Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.

When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.

Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post it with your next reply. You may need two posts to fit them all in.

Please post back with

both OTL logs

Thanks
