    Hello all,

    I'm doing maintenance on my PC which includes more than the usual anti virus scan. I've gone through the RUN & READ ME first thread like I usually do when I come here and have attached the necessary logs. This is not a critical timing issue as my PC seems to be running fine and no different than before. So please feel free to take your time with this one.

    I'd like to thank you in advance for the time and effort you take going through these logs and help you provide.

    You can rerun Hitman and remove the ask.com item, otherwise I am not seeing any malware.

    Since you are not having any malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware.
    2. Renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it in step 4 of the READ & RUN ME.
    3. 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.
    4. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8 or 10, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    5. Now goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 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.
    6. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    7. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
