I think the Google maps problem maybe a Google thing; it is not malware-related.
That’s looking fine apart from the Google Chrome home page issue. Did you reset the home page as I instructed? We may need to uninstall/re-install Chrome.
Multiple antiviruses
You have Avast and Microsoft Security Essential (MSE) antivirus programs installed.
You can not run two real-time antiviruses at the same time. Although many have different methods of searching for and recognising threats, they will all be 'fighting' in memory to kick each other out, rendering them all ineffective.
I would suggest you uninstall MSE as it is already disabled but it is your choice.
==================================================
Run Security Check
Download Security Check by screen317 from here or here.
Logs to include with the next post:
checkup.txt
Can you also remember to tell me if you reset your Chrome home page.

All seems pretty good but I'd like you to run an online scan to make sure everything has gone before we tidy up.
===================================================
Run ESET Online Scan
IMPORTANT Please make sure you uncheck the box next to Remove found threats. Eset will detect anything that looks even slightly suspicious, which could include legitimate program files. If you do not uncheck the box, Eset will automatically remove all suspicious files which could leave some of your software inoperable.
Note: You can use either Internet Explorer or Mozilla FireFox for this scan. You will however need to disable your currently installed Anti-Virus, how to do so can be read here.
Hold down Control and click on the following link to open ESET OnlineScan in a new window.
ESET OnlineScan
o click on esetinstaller.exe to download the ESET Smart Installer. Save it to your desktop.
o double click on the Eset installer icon on your desktop.
o Scan potentially unwanted applications
o Scan for potentially unsafe applications
o Enable Anti-Stealth technology
Note - if ESET doesn't find any threats, no report will be created.
When the scan is complete:
If no threats were found:
o put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
o close program
o report to me that nothing was found
If threats were found:
o click on "list of threats found"
o click on "export to text file" and save it as ESET results and save to the desktop
o Click on back
o put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
o click on finish
o close program
o copy and paste the report here
Thanks

Please copy all text in the code box below and paste it into Notepad:
@echo off del /f /s /q "C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA64\rsa64.dll” del %0
Are there any remaining problems?

Your computer appears to be clean.
Now that you’re free from malware, as long as your computer seems to be running well, please follow these simple steps to tidy up you computer and decrease the likelihood of getting infected again:
Uninstall AdwCleaner
You can delete all other logs and programs we’ve used that are on your desktop. Just click on them and press Delete.
===================================================
Download & run Delfix
Also place a checkmark next to:
o Create registry backup
o Purge system restore
You can delete all other logs and programs we’ve used that are on your desktop. Just click on them and press Delete.
===================================================
Update Java
Your version of Java is out-of-date and need to be removed and updated.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Install the latest version of Java:
Java
NOTE – when you install Java, before clicking on Install, be sure to Uncheck “Install the Ask Toolbar and make Ask my default search provider”
Even though I just had you get the latest version of Java, there is a vulnerability with regards to Java and web browsers. Therefore, we recommend to disable java in web browsers.
More information can be found here.
===================================================
Re-enable Spybot - Search and Destroy’s TeaTimer
Remember to scan your computer with the program on a regular basis as you would with your anti-virus software.
===================================================
Update and run Malwarebytes. This really is an excellent program that you should also update and run on a regular basis, probably weekly.
===================================================
It’s important to keep programs up to date so that malware doesn't exploit any old security flaws.
FileHippo Update Checker is an extremely helpful program that will tell you which of your programs need to be updated.
===================================================
MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well known ad sites and other bad sites. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer, meaning it will be difficult to infect yourself in the future.
A couple of links with information here and here which can answer any questions you might have about installing/using it.
===================================================
Unchecky
Be careful when downloading free software. Many free programs come bundled with adware, many of which cause redirects/popups and verge on being malware. There is a program that automatically “unckecks” the boxes you may not notice when downloading programs.
Download and install Unchecky .
I also recommend that you read the following:

I will keep this open for 24 hours in case you have any problems, after which I’ll close the topic.

Java also works with Firefox. It could be your version of Java. You can test it by going here.
Also, see this article on How do I use Java with the Google Chrome browser?
Just out of curiosity, how did the map-printing go?

No.
Your operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate edition which means that you have "Snipping Tool" available to you. Your best option, (as Google maps don't print well even when not black ), is to use the Snipping Tool to take a screen capture of the map and then you can paste it into your Corel Graphics program, (or Paint/MS Word), then print it out.
There is a video showing you how to use it if you don't know how. You can find it here.
Good luck.

You're welcome windinmyhair
I'll close this now.
If you continue to have a problem with Google maps, please start a topic at our Browsers, Internet and email forum and I'm sure they'll be able to help.
Take care
