Need someone to look at my Combofix log, at your convenience.

We really need to know what problems you are trying to fix. Combofix is not a comprehensive malware scanning tool and it is definitely not the first thing that should be run. In fact in most cases it should be avoided or at least put off until a much later point in time. If you are having malware problems, we would more likely have you run the below


READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

 

Not needed. I only need what is requested in the READ & RUN ME link. Note that most slow PCs are not due to malware....especially older computers trying to run modern applications. Also shutdowns are more indicative of hardware problems especially if it is a laptop.

 

Yes because as I stated it is not a malware problem.


Reasons contributing towards poor performance:

• Old slow processor - Processor x86 Family 15 Model 107 Stepping 1 AuthenticAMD ~2109 Mhz
• You really could use another GB of memory - Total Physical Memory 2,048.00 MB
• Big problem lack of free diskspace - Drive C: Free Space 7.86 GB (8,437,018,624 bytes) you should remove unnecessary files from this drive to help with performance. I recommend keeping at least 10% of you hard disk size as free space. Since you have a 246.10 GB drive this means about 24 GB free. This is not a hard rule but when you get down below10 GB and also do not have enough memory, free disk space is important.

Howeverthat being stated I do see some junkware to remove and I can also give you instructions to remove some unnecessary ( not malware ) startup processes which may help. I will try to get back to you with these instructions later tonight.

 

The instructions did inform you where to click. It gave you info like the below with images.

I'll look into this. Many programs are constantly changing the way the work which is quite frustrating for self-help sites like this because it thus requires frequent changes to procedures.

This is a problem on your end. Possibly in your browser settings or firewall. You must be blocking various images which may possibly explain comment #1 of yours. Do you see the images I posted above for DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS ?

 

What us the below file?

C:\charlesbuzzardService3170.exe

It shows as remote access tool which could be a problem if you did not know about it.

Did you put the below as main Internet Explore start page?
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = file:///C:/Tools/MYSTARTP.HTM

Your logs showed you are running both Firefox and Internet Explore browsers at the same time. This is not a good idea with your low memory and performance issues.

Also not a good idea to run programs like the below at startup. Only run them when you need them.

Please download OTM by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.

• Run OTM.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, Win7 or Win8, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).
• Copy the lines from the below codebox to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C
  (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose Copy): Do not include the word Code: which is just a title line of
  the code box

[Reboot]

• Return to OTM, right click in the Paste List of Files/Folders to Move window (under the yellow bar
  ) and choose Paste.
• Now click the large button.
• If OTM asks to reboot your computer, allow it to do so. The report should appear in Notepad after the reboot.
• Close OTM.

Now navigate to the C:\_OTM\MovedFiles folder ( assuming your Windows drive is C). This is where your log will be
saved in the form of Date and Time mmddyyyy_hhmmss.log. Just look for the most recent .log file. Attach
this log file to your next message.


Now please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

• Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.
• Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista or Seven, right-mouse click it and select Run as Administrator.
• The tool will open and start scanning your system.
• Note: That JRT may reset your home page to a google default so you will need to restore your home page setting if this happens.
• Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.
• On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
• Attach JRT.txt to your next message.

Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, Win7 or Win8, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).


Then attach the below logs:

• the C:\_OTM\MovedFiles log
• the JRT.TXT log
• C:\MGlogs.zip

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

 

You're welcome. Your logs are clean.

If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware.
3. Renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it in step 4 of the READ & RUN ME.
4. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis. If you don't see it or it will not uninstall, don't worry about it. Just move on to the next step.
5. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
6. Now goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 Right Click and Run As Administrator ) on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
8. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
9. If you are running Win 8, Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below to flush restore points:
   • Refer to the instructions for your WIndows version in this link: Disable And Enable System Restore​
   • What we want you to do is to first disable System Restore to flush restore points some of which could be infected.
   • Then we want you to Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
