    I’m unsure of what it is but I’m certain it’s bad news!

    A fake ‘Security Centre Alert’ comes up asking if I want to block suspicious software ‘Win32.brontok’ and the internet window says that it is unsafe to browse and ‘Insecure Internet activity. Threat of virus attack’

    I can’t locate the SASlog, but it says that I am free of any threats anyway.

    it also says I can't upload my MGlogs.zip as it's already in another thread?

    All of your scanning tools are out of date. Uninstall SAS and MBAM that you currently have and delete the ComboFix.exe and MGtools.exe files you have. You need to start the READ & RUN ME process at the beginning and when you get to the cleaning procedure part, download and run the new versions of SAS, MBAM, ComboFix, and MGtools. Follow the instructions for each program as written and then attach all 4 new logs.

    Evidently you did not follow instructions given to you last time to clean up. See msg # 5 here: http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=181486
