malware/trojan problems

Sounds like you have hardware issues that need to be addressed. This may be a warning sign. Get everything backed up now while you can.

Adaware is not recommended anymore. We actually suggest removing it especially since they install junkware on your PC like Blekko Toolbar that no one wants! And in addition, your PC running slow is due to all the stuff you installed:

Adaware - is this the free or paid version? And is does this include their antivirus. I see you have an email scanner from them so I suspect it is an antivirus too and you already have Avira.
WinPatrol
Windows Defender
Malwarebytes - is this the free or paid version ?
Avira - already has antivirus plus antispyware so you don't really need or want the above to do any protection.
ZoneAlarm - sometimes can be quite a pig and you again installed more than just the firewall. You install firewall, antivirus, antispyware, their junk toolbar, their spy blocker!

Too many protection programs can be worse than none!

My proposal which will include a fix for some junk noticed in Hitman. In fact, run Hitman and allow it to fix all those items it showed. Do this right now and then reboot before continuing.

Now uninstall ALL of the below
Ad-Aware Email Scanner for Outlook
Ad-Aware
Ad-Aware
Browser Address Error Redirector
uTorrentControl2 Toolbar
Wincore MediaBar
Windows Defender
WinPatrol 2009
ZoneAlarm Firewall
ZoneAlarm Free Firewall
ZoneAlarm LTD Toolbar
ZoneAlarm Security
ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker

Then reboot your PC after the last is uninstalled. You may get prompted at intermediate points to reboot too. If requested after uninstalling anyone of these then do the reboot and then continue.

After reboot, run Ccleaner. Only use the Run Cleaner button. Do not run anything else on any other forms.

Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista or Win7, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).

Then attach the below logs:

• C:\MGlogs.zip

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

 

Okay then that is even more reason for your PC being slow. You had way too many programs with active protection running.

Okay one component of ZA is still there even though you cannot see it. ZoneAlarm LTD Toolbar is still in your logs. We will removal it manually since ZA did not cleanup after itself.


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.

You also need to run CCleaner as requested in the READ & RUN ME to cleanup Temp folders.

So how are things running now with all of those excess programs removed?

 

You're welcome.

Nope. Just do the below.


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. You can uninstall RogueKiller and HitManPro.
2. Go back to step 4 oof the READ ME and renable 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 or Win 7, 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. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
6. 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.
7. If you are running Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
   • Refer to the cleaning procedures pointed to by step 6 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.
8. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
   • How to Protect yourself from malware!

 

Yes if they still exist after running MGclean.bat you can delete them. MGclean should take care of quite a bit of cleanup.

No you can keep these. Just DO NOT use Spybot's Teatimer. Also you most likely need to update Spybot as I can see you are way out of date with SpywareBlaster. You have 4.3. You need to uninstall it and install this one SpywareBlaster

 

We can always find more scans to run, but nothing related to malware had been showing. Many of your problems may just be residual damage from installing too many protection programs.

Try running a full scan rather than a quick scan with Malwarebytes and attach the new log.

Now run ESET per the below and attach the log from ESET.

Using ESET's Online Scanner

Note that if you still have MGtools installed ESET will detect the process.exe file in the MGtools folder as a problem. ESET is wrong.

 

Shutdown ALL protection software including your firewall and try again.

If that does not work, make sure that you are using Internet Explorer and not Chrome!!!!!
