    Just went through all the steps and I am posting my logs to see if there are any more problems to be caught.

    Initially I was having some computer problems (it was running slow and it crashed a few times). I just thought it was time for a new install of windows (its been about 4 years now). So I took a new hard drive, installed windows, and then copied my old files from my old computer. Things were running fine but I started to get random crashes (blue screen of some sort) and after a few days the computer started to crash every hour and would get stuck in a loop of crashing. So I fought through the crashes and installed and ran all the programs. I had many problems getting the computer to boot up into safe mode to run ccleaner but I finally got it to work and moved on with relative ease.

    If there is anything more to do please let me know. As of this post I have had no more crashes but it’s only been about an hour now and I thought better safe then sorry.

    thanks for any help...

    Your logs are clean ....this sounds like a hardware issue such as failing ram. I would suggest you post in either the software or hardware forum.

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

    1 If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop & renamed it like we requested.)

    * Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required (substitute for cf whatever you renamed it)
    * "%userprofile%\Desktop\cf" /u
    o Notes: The space between the cf" and the /u, it must be there.
    o This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
    * Delete the C:\cf folder from combofix.
    2 *If we used SmitFraudFix, you can delete all files and folders related to it now including the c:\rapport.txt log.
    3 *If we used VundoFix, you can delete the VundoFix.exe file and the C:\VundoFix Backups folder and C:\vundofix.txt log that was created.
    4. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    5. You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip
    6. If you are running Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
    * Refer to the cleaning steps in the READ ME for your Window version and see the steps to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
    * Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    7. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:

    So I did the final steps the day you posted them and every thing was running fine, I thought that I had some sort of malware that had been stopped and I was happy to have my computer running the right way again. But today my computer gave me a blue screen again and started acting funky (like my pointer turning into the hour glass for no reason, or my windows media player crashing over and over again). I have ran all of the scans again, and my computer is running like new again. I am posting my logs and would like to know if you have any other advice. It could be a hardware problem like you said, but why did run it fine for a week after running all these scans.

    thanks for any help you can give me.

    The only thing that looks odd is this:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\mbamswissarmy.sys
    I would suggest uninstalling Malwarebytes and then see if this file still exists..if so, remove it.

    But I doubt this is what is causing the problems.....:(

    Well I did every thing you said and it was working fine for a few days but its back to giving me blue screen crashes. If you have any other suggestions that would be great. If you think I should move on to the hardware help now I will do so. Thanks for all your help
