Hello and welcome to the forum. :wavey: I will be checking out your logs this time. I hope we can help you clean your machine. :thumbup: All of my fixes will be checked by experts, so please bear with me while we examine your logs. I hope you will stay with me until you are perfectly clean. We like to know that we have done a good job. :wall: I will return shortly with your first instructions. DR

OK, let's do some cleaning! :rant2:


Please download Combofix to your desktop.
Doubleclick it to launch the application.
Follow the prompts that will be displayed on the screen.

Don't click on the window while the fix is running, because that could cause your system to hang.

When finished, it should produce a log, combofix.txt.

Post this log in your next reply together with a new hijackthislog.

Thanks.

DR
