    when checking folder C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\GILBERT\Startmenü\Programme\Autostart (windows xp prof.) I found a file "santa.bat" with following content:

    cd "C:\WINDOWS\system32"
    rename cleanup.txt cleanup.exe
    reg add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v Winsys32sys /t REG_SZ /d "C:\WINDOWS\system32\cleanup.exe"

    It seems to me to be very strange because I didn`t install something like this.
    I`ve attached MGlogs.zip from running MGTools and would be appreciating every useful comment.

    You did not allow MGTools to run to completion, nor did you accept the license agreement to run HJT. We also need the logs for:
    SAS
    MBAM
    ComboFix
