Is this computer clean?

Hello, Trisha

Only a couple of things to do.. Using Windows Explorer, please delete this trialware folder --> C:\ProgramData\Norton.

Then download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

• Make sure to shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.
• Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista or Seven, right-mouse click it and select Run as Administrator.
• The tool will open and start scanning your system.
• Note: That JRT may reset your home page to a google default so you will need to restore your home page setting if this happens.
• Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.
• On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.

With such minor cleaning needed, we'll finish up now: 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. Unless you purchase it, it provide no protection. It do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
2. Go back to step 6 of the READ ME and re-enable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
4. If running Vista, Win 7/8 - 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.
5. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
6. Go to 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.
7. After doing the above, you should work through the below link:

Sure - rerun Hitman Pro to see if those PUP still remain; if so fix them. Both JRT and Hitman overlap a bit on detecting Askbar and we'll use them both.

Attach the updated Hitman Pro log please.

 

Hi

Noting the recent factory restore and what little junk that was found, I didn't see the need to flush the restore points and therefore removed that from the final instructions.

You should be "Good to go!".

You're very welcome, trisha.
