I Think My PC Is Infected

    I believe my PC is infected, by what I know not. I believe this because I randomly did a scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware yesterday. It reported a number of infected items which I quarantined.

    Because of that I have followed the Majorgeeks malware removal guide and attach the scan logs. As the guide requires I ran Malwarebytes. On this occasion it found nothing. I don’t know if this is because I quarantined some items yesterday or if I’m not infected.

    I’d appreciate a review of my logs and if I’m infected advice on how I can remove the infections.

    Please note this is not the same PC for which I asked for help several days ago.

    I am not finding any malware in your logs. What malware issues are you having?

    Thanks for looking at my logs.

    The PC isn't misbehaving, so to speak. I did a random scan with malwatrebytes. I just scan my PCs on a regular basis just to check nothing's gone wrong. Malwarebytes said it found several objects, which it quarantined. Other than that I have no reason to suspect any malware.

    Good to know.

    If 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. 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, 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.
