    Could someone please check the attached logs to confirm the PC is clean?

    MalwareBytes Anti-Malware discovered 2 trojans and removed them, prompting a re-boot.

    I followed the R & R to the finish.

    Are you currently using MSSE as antivirus? If so I am seeing remnants of Norton to be rid of. Let me know!


    Now Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

    Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
    to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.

    What problems remain if any, because the logs look good.

    Run Malware Bytes again just to be safe and let me know if it comes out clean.
    Also address my other question regarding antivirus :)

    I don't need to see those SAS logs, G. Edited the request for those out.

    Ahh I missed that. You need to do this :


    Important Notice: A new version of SUPERAntiSpyware is available.
    • Please uninstall your current version (this is necessary).
    • Then download this SUPERAntiSpyware
    • Install this new version. It may tell you that you need to reboot to complete the installation. You must reboot at this time.
    • After the reboot, run SUPERAntiSpyware and immediately click the Check for Updates button to get more updates for the database.
    • Now run a new full scan of your system. And attach this log later.

    Installed newer version of Super AntiSpyware, updated and ran full scan. Attached log from the scan.

    I thought I would have saved time by using my existing version, but there you go, I was wrong :-o

    Yes, it's always best to have an up to date version of scanners.

    What about antivirus G? Because if you are not using Norton, I see leftovers we need to be rid of, and also did you rescan with MBAM? Did it come up clean?
    How are things running? :confused

    Hi again

    I have never ever had norton on this PC. Bought it brand new and refused the deal of Norton. Perhaps it was installed as a trial from build, but I never even clicked to look.
    Running MBAM now, while I go take the dog a walk (what dog?!!). Mr.Budweiser of course

    :-D

    I think Combofix might have removed those orphaned entries. So good to go, G! :)

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
    2. If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
      • Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required
      • "%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /uninstall
        • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /uninstall, it must be there.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
    3. Go back to step 6 of the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    4. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    5. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    6. If running Vista, 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.
    7. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    8. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click 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.
    9. If you are running Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
      • Refer to the cleaning procedures pointed to by step 7 of the READ ME
        for your Window version and see the instructions to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
      • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
