    I have carried out the "READ & RUN ME FIRST Malware Removal Guide (incl. spyware, virus, trojan, hijacker)" and I attach the logs. I would be grateful if they were read, and advised if anything has been found plus cleaning procedures for infections. I think RogueKiller found something.

    Absolutely spotlessly clean from what I see. Are you experiencing any actual malware problems? :confused

    That's really good news, thanks! No problems other than the ones you looked at for me just prior to Christmas - on my mother-in-law's PC. I did the Run and Read me as you recommended. The only problem is it's extremely slow. I'm not sure how to check the amount of memory but I think there's very little. It's a laptop that's at least 6 years old (ancient in PC terms). There's only about 2 GB of space left on hard drive which I think slows PCs down and which you look at the hard drive in My Computer it's a red colour.

    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:
