Hello JonTom
I tried the second method you suggested.
CODE
@echo off
for %%g in (
"C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\c\program files\Common Files\OnlineFilesManager.dll.vir"
"C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\c\Program Files\Common Files\Data\hd39_module.dat.vir"
"C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\c\windows\system32\19153993741.dll.vir"
) do zip Files_for_submission %%g
del %0
Save this as grab.bat
Choose to "Save type as - All Files"
Save it on your desktop.
Files_for_submission.zip will be created on your desktop. Please upload that file here:
It produced no file on the Desktop or any where else. Files_for_submission.zip
I searched the computer and found no file created
I tried it twice – no file created.
Does the second method make the file smaller than the first method, Because the problem with the first upload was the size of the zipped file. It was Zipped.
“The folder is 11 mega-bytes zipped. The max size for uploaded files is 5
mega-bytes. So. I got an error trying to send the folder”

Does the second method make the file smaller than the first method
The bat file only collects the files we require rather than the whole folder so it will be much smaller.
I am not sure why the previous batch file failed. Please try again with the following (do not copy the word "code"):
@echo off
for %%g in (
C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\c\program files\Common Files\OnlineFilesManager.dll.vir
C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\c\Program Files\Common Files\Data\hd39_module.dat.vir
C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\c\windows\system32\19153993741.dll.vir
) do zip Files_for_submission %%g
del %0
Please let me know if the file is created this time, and if you are able to upload it.
Hello JonTom
Tried again twice. I did not use the word "code" before in the script.
Nothing produced on desktop. Searched comp for "Files_for_submission" or a "zip" file created today nothing.
What now.

Hello JonTom
The files must be missing.
I searched for each file name with it's path and they could not be found.
Things are still working good. Don't have to sign in every time online - no redirecting.

Hello JonTom
I read your last post and removed the items you mentions.
I also downloaded FireFox and No Script. Will give them a try.
I want to thank you for your help.
Your computer expertise and patience was invaluable to solving my computer problem.
I know my problem was a difficult challenge and you conquered it.
Thank You Again

I also downloaded FireFox and No Script. Will give them a try.
No Script take a little getting used to but it is a very good application.
I know my problem was a difficult challenge and you conquered it
This was indeed an interesting case, but I cannot take all of the credit. A fix would not have been possible without some excellent assistance from a number of Helpers and Malware Experts (you know who you are, and I thank you all ).
I am glad we could help with your problem.
As your problem appears to be resolved, this thread is now closed.
Best wishes
JonTom
