    After becoming infected with malware that changed the .lnk extensions and the .exe extensions, whenever we start the computer, it brings up a dos window with jibberish in box followed by c:\windows\system32 xxxx, different each reboot. Only choice is click OK. ComboFix won't run get message nircmd.com windows cannot open thi file needs to know what program created it. Also can't run MGtools says cant run .bat file same reason. HKT log attached. Thanks.

    Based on what you have attached thus far I see no malware problems. But it would be more helpful if you attached the logs from AVG Antispyware and MGtools as requested. Also if you get error messages don't paraphrase or abbreviate them. Give us the whole exact word for word message.

    You appear to have some parts of Symantec Antivirus still installed but you seem to be running Avast now. You should run the below:

    Norton Removal Tool (SymNRT)
