Hello and welcome to the Forums.

1.Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2.Next, open Add/Remove Programs and remove if listed:
AntiSpywareBot This is a rouge anti-spyware program.

1. This tool MUST be run from the executable. (.exe)
2. With Admin Rights (Right click, choose "Run as Administrator")

Please download SmitfraudFix

Right click SmitfraudFix.exe Run as Administrator (press any key as the blue screen indicates, then:
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

If you go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services and look down the list for WMPNetworkSvc double click or right click for properties to open, then Stop the service running and then in the Startup Type dropdown list choose Disable and then Apply.

1. In Windows Media Player turn off media sharing in the library tab right click on it > click "media sharing" unclick the media sharing tab and click ok 2. Turn off the "WMPnetwk.exe" service Under the "RUN" command in the start meni type "services.msc" Scroll down to "Windows media player network sharing" Double click and under startup type set to disabled

Log looks good. You can remove any programs / Tools I had you install. Use Add/Remove Programs to remove if listed there otherwise just delete them and empty recycle bin.
