    Thank you for the help!

    All scans were run in normal mode

    A friend of mine recommended I run spyware hunter 4. When I ran it, all it found was a ton, like a ton, of tracking cookies. I tried running a separate scan with hitman pro for only tracking cookies and the tracking cookies on both scans were different. I don't know if it is possible to extract a log from spyware hunter 4 though. I will upload another log for hitman pro for when I ran it only for tracking cookies.

    Also! I forgot to mention in my previous thread. While the java problem has come back a difference is that it occurs less now. Before, i swear it was like every second page, now it is barely noticeable. But I'd like to be rid of it for good, you know?

    thank you again!

    Those logs look lovely and clean. Explain to me again which browser(s) this occurs in please?

    Before it didn't matter which browser I used. The java thing would pop up. I think maybe the exception was internet explorer. But I don't use IE much...

    But now, like I said it is not happening as frequently. I just tried browsing on firefox and google chrome. I tried firefox first and within about 10 minutes, it popped up but hasn't come back and it has been about one hour.
    On google chrome I actually haven't seen it for a while. A while being like a day or three...

    I don't want to say it is not affecting google chrome though because it did pop up when windows update(s) occurred and post-post system restore.

    Re: Outdated Java Update (Cont.) (solved?)

    My friend had another look at my laptop and tried a couple things. I am not sure what he did but my laptop seems to be running okay for now. I've been doing things that I normally do when it pops up and nothing's happened so far...

    I really appreciate all the help you've given me!

    Sorry about the not really necessary post :-o

    No problem. Final steps below if all is well:


    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.
    2. Renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it in step 4 of the READ & RUN ME.
    3. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis. If you don't see it or it will not uninstall, don't worry about it. Just move on to the next step.
    4. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8, 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. Now goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 Right Click and Run As Administrator ) 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.
    6. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.

    7. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
