    My sister-in-law got a nice msg from one of her Facebook friends that told her to "check out this video". When she clicked on the link all hell broke loose. I ran the scans and things seem to be a lot better, no more pop ups or virus warnings directing you to a pay to play site, but since this is not my computer and I am not sure how fast or slow it ran to begin with, I was hoping someone could take a look at the logs and let me know if everything looks clean.

    Thanks in advance...

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Please attach the last requested log -
    MGlogs.zip - normally it is C:\MGlogs.zip - only attach this log from MGtools.exe DO NOT attach any logs seen in the MGtools folder.

    Be patient after posting your logs and wait for one of the helpers to get to you. It can take a while to read thru all of the logs and to create individual fixes for you.[

    *Also DO NOT BUMP your thread to try and get a faster answer. This will actually significantly delay getting an answer. See this: Don't Bump! It Only Hurts You!!!
    • Any additional post is a bump which will add more delay. Once you attach the logs, your thread will be in the work queue and as stated our system works the oldest threads FIRST.

    WARNING: The following advice and fixes are specific to this member's problem and should be used for the issue(s) with this machine only.

    Hello, minogeeks2 - please do not install any other software while we are still working with you unless instructed. Once we have given you the all clean and final instructions you will be free to install what you want.

    *Move C:\Malware Cleaner\MGtools.exe directly under C:\ as instructed in the READ AND RUN ME guide.

    Step 1:
    Please look in Add/Remove Programs for the following and uninstall if found. If you get any errors just make a note and continue on.
    Step 2:
    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:
    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Step 3:
    Open CCleaner - select "Cleaner" > "Run Cleaner" <---use this function ONLY!

    Step 4:
    Now install the latest Sun Java Runtime Environment

    AFTER completing the above steps - you can move on to our final clean-up procedure.

    COMMENT: I would also suggest that you update to Vista SP2 !
