    User stated they tried to remove the infection themselves using Windows Defender Offline. I did the very same thing to my own machine last week and had to come here after hours of frustration I figured i would come strait here this time. I have attached a copy of the frst.txt ran on the machine (an Asuss Q500a laptop). Many thanks in advance!

    What malware prompted this person to run WDO? I'm not seeing any real malware issues. At least not the typical signs of Alureon that people have been running WDO for and then having their PC become unbootable. But all those cases were on Vista and Win 7. This PC is Windows 8. The only thing I see is the below junkware

    HKLM-x32\...\Run: [ApnUpdater] "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ask.com\Updater\Updater.exe" [1646216 2013-03-31] (Ask)
