    Hey all, have a question about a couple detected items on a fresh Windows install. I'm just setting up this system for the first time and want to start it out right. Went through all the steps of the cleaning procedure, installed all programs as directed and ran them in order. Logs are attached, but the two that I know had detected items are in the AdwCleaner and RogueKiller logs.

    I didn't quarantine any files or remove any registry keys yet, so just waiting on further instruction before making further steps. Thank you in advance for your help.

    Those aren't problems. You can ignore them.

    Since you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware.
    2. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis. If you don't see it or it will not uninstall, don't worry about it. Just move on to the next step.
    3. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8, it is time to make sure you have re-enabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    4. Now go to the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 or 10 Right Click and Run As Administrator ) on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    5. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    6. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
