    Hi, Thanks for any help with this..

    A day ago i started getting a svchost error message so i used Eset online scanner and it found win64/sirefef W and T virus.. I had it remove them and then ran Combofix, it rebooted my pc at some point while running. After this i noticed my Desktop Icons seemed larger, i thought my resolution had gotten changed so i started changing resolutions looking for my normal config, however once i found my original resolution, my icons where still bigger, so i rt clicked on dekstop and under 'view' i noticed they got set for Medium size, normally i leave this on CLassic size, so i changed it to classic and moved my icons around the dekstop to where i normally have them, i rt clicked on dekstop again and clicked 'refresh' and all the icons moved to the left in rows.. I check to make sure that i do not have auto arrange or align grid checked. I moved the icons again and rebooted, and on reboot, they change back to Medium size and all move to left in rows. ALso if i go into a folder and click View and change the icons size to Medium, they change back to 'Details' and not medium size icons upon exiting and re-entering the folder.

    I ran TDSS Killer and it found nothing.. I ran GMER and it found Nothing.. I ran MBAM and it found nothing.. Today i ran Sophos and it found the following:: MAL/FakeAvCn-B and Mal/Java-Gen-A I did update the Java today..

    Also, i also have a regular user account on this PC so i went into that desktop to check it, and it is totally fine, icons are set on Classic and i can move them around and log off and on and the stay where i put them. I also added a new Admin account just to check, and that desktop stays good also, so this seems to be just on my main Admin user desktop.

    At this point, im not sure if there is something here as far as a rootkit or ??
    I d'ld superantispyware and ran it and it found just some tracking cookies, i will post the log along with MBAM..

    Can someone please assist me and checking to make sure everything is clean and see if i can resolve this desktop issue.. Thank you for the Help..
