    Did a complete rebuild of OPSYs. Most logs look very small. Need a quick review to be sure all is right and haven picked up a bug within the last few days or added a bug while using install tools.

    Thanks in advance

    Other than what MBAM removed, your logs are clean, but you really should uninstall SUPERAntiSpyware and then reinstall the correct version. You are out of date.

    Thanks for the look see. I will change the SAS per your instructions. I have 3 more personal machines that I need to check. Any advice on how to do a quick interpretation of the results like spotting a virus that was missed after running the read me first instructions? Would like to do my part on learning more about what you guys/gals do so I can help friends with problems. Also to cut down on the times that I add to the volume of the forum. Just interested in how to do more from my end if that is possible.



    Thanks again.

    Not really. If you could already do this on your own you would not need to be posting here. ;)

    You're welcome.
    Read all the threads which will help. Also see this: Becoming A Malware Forum Helper


    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" /u
        • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /u, it must be there.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
      • Delete the C:\combofix folder from combofix (if it exists)
    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. 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.
    5. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    6. You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip
    7. If you are running Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
      • Refer to the cleaning procedures in step 3 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:

    Thanks for all the help, advice and suggestions. I view myself as an intermediate tech person looking to get better. At the risk of belying my status which one of us is supposed to close the thread? :-o

    Thanks again. Moving on to my next challenge.

    You're welcome. We do not normally close threads. We just try to post last so we know that the thread requires no additional followup. ;) So you don't need to respond to this unless you still have problems with this PC. :)
