    Your logs are clean.

    Since you are not having any malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. You can uninstall RogueKiller and HitManPro.
    2. Go back to step 6 of the
      READ ME
      and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. If running Vista or Win 7, 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.
    5. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    6. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click 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.
    7. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
    Malware removal from a National Chain = $149
    Malware removal from MajorGeeks = $0

    Thanks for your help. just a quick question which was step two,
    "Go back to step 6 of the
    READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it."
    I'm not sure what this was, would I have to installed Defrogger?

    Thanks
