are there any new steps I should take in the immediate future?
Hi TerraRising,

You took quite a risk using instructions designed for someone else's machine and running ComboFix without supervision. If you were simply keen to resolve the problem as quickly as possible then I completely understand, but you should be aware that doing either of those things could have rendered your system unusable. If you wish to have help then I must ask you to make no system changes or run any tools without specific instructions, otherwise I can't work with your machine safely.

————————————————————————

  • Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your Desktop (right-click the link, select Save Target As…, select your Desktop and press Save)
  • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to both of these options:
    • Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select Perform Quick Scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Make sure everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • When finished, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to your Desktop, and post the contents in your reply.
  • The log can also be found here if you need it:
    • Start->All Programs->Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware->Logs

————————————————————————

Download RSIT by random/random to your Desktop (right-click the link, select Save Target As…, select your Desktop and press Save)

  • Double click RSIT.exe to start the program, and click Continue at the disclaimer screen.
  • When the scan is complete, two text files will open - log.txt <- this one will be maximized and info.txt <-this one will be minimized
  • Make sure Format->Word Wrap is unchecked
  • Copy (Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of log.txt and info.txt in your reply

————————————————————————

Once complete, please post the Malwarebytes Antimalware report and both RSIT logs, you won't need to produce a new HijackThis log as RSIT produces one for you.
Do you still need help with your machine? If the instructions are unclear or something isn't working, please let me know before proceeding.
