Ok, let's try another scan. Please download the free MWAV antivirus tool from here. Save it to the desktop and run it. Follow the prompts to scan your system for viruses. Then please post for me the log of infected files from the BOTTOM panel of the scan window. Please remove any lines relating to "Invalid object" as they are not needed at this time.

Once installed, run CCleaner click the Windows
Select the following:
[external image: Posted Image]
Next: click Options click the Settings tab
Uncheck: "Only delete files older than 48 hrs.", click Ok
Then click Run Cleaner (bottom right) then Exit.

Then, run a new MWav scan and let's see if that helps.
also under Settings: the only options are: Run CCleaner when pc starts (which is not check) Add Run CCleaner option to recycle bin context menu(check) Auto update (check) there's no "Only delete files older than 48 hrs."
now only 2 left Object "kazaa Spyware/Adware" found in File System! Action Taken: No Action Taken. Object "kazaa Spyware/Adware" found in File System! Action Taken: No Action Taken.
