    I just ran the READ & RUN ME Guide, and I have the log files from the different programs. I noticed that one of the items in the RootRepeal log was named catchme.sys, and I've read about the catchme virus before, but I don't remember how to remove it, and I still have this file in my computer. I also noticed these two unsigned files: dump_dumpata.sys and dump_msahci.sys, which was interesting to me, because I have been getting a blue screen every now and then for the past two weeks that says something like 'Cdump'...

    Anyway, I would appreciate if someone would take a look at my logs, and help me solve whatever issues remain in my computer. I have made repeated attempts to fix my computer over the past month... and I'm about ready to bash it with a hammer :-|. This is the first time I have posted on a forum for assistance, but I feel that it is necessary, because whatever is wrong with my computer appears to be beyond me. On a side note... I've been using spyware doctor, and it appears to be getting rid of the same files every single day, and sometimes on back-to-back scans... most of them are tracking cookies, so I have set my browser so it asks permission to download any cookies ever, which is terribly annoying, but it seems necessary.

This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:
    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Please download The Avenger by Swandog469, and save it to your Desktop.

    I did everything that you told me. My computer is running fantastic, thank you :D... the only problem I had, was that I couldn't get the last log you wanted. I put C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat in my computer search, and then right clicked it and clicked 'run as administrator' and it is just starting up and then disappearing.

    Please click Start, All Program, Accessories and you will see ( among other things ) a Command Prompt entry.

    • Right click the Command Prompt entry and select Run As Administrator.
      • It is critical that you run it this way.

    • If you do this properly, a command prompt window will open with a title of Administrator Command Prompt.
    • Enter the below commands at the command prompt each followed by the enter key. The bold black are commands. The purple/brown is merely informational.

    cd \MGtools <-- this changes to the MGtools folder and the prompt should change to C:\MGtools>
    GetRunKey<-- this will try to run all one scan from MGtools. Tell me what error messages, if any, you see.
    ShowNew<-- this will try to run all one scan from MGtools. Tell me what error messages, if any, you see.

    I didn't have any error messages. It said this after mgtools ran:

    Adding newfiles.txt (160 bytes security) (deflated 80%)
    Adding ffdata.txt (160 bytes security) (deflated 75%)
    Adding winfiles.txt (160 bytes security) (deflated 88%)

    I don't know if that is useful or not...
