    I'm cleaning my desktop computer, and would like to know if I need to go further, or if it's ok now.

    I have followed the directions in the "Read and Run Me First" thread for my Windows XP Home edition OS.

    MGlogs.zip is attached.

    When I ran AVG Antispyware, it seemed to go through it's process ok, but at the end, it said "No reports available". When I clicked on the "Reports" button, there was no response.

    The ComboFix.txt file is empty (zero bytes - I couldn't attach it to the message). The ComboFix program seemed to execute ok.

    Does evil still lurk inside my computer?

    No ComboFix did not run properly and neither did MGtools. You were getting errors and did not notice them. I would bet they are possibly the error messages noted on the Using MGtools download page. Run those fixes and then try ComboFix again. And then also run C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat to create a new MGlogs.zip file. Watch for error messages and let me know exactly what they are if you see any. Don't rewrite the error messages, give me the exact wording.


    Is your copy of Spy Sweeper a paid version or free trial?
