Primary PC Infected?

    I just ran the scans, following the "Vista, Win 7 and Win 8 Malware Removal/Cleaning Procedure".

    I am not sure whether I'm infected with anything major, minor, or nothing at all anymore after the scans. I figured it'd be best to make sure.

    I tried running RogueKiller but it caused my computer to crash every time (the Windows 8 "BSOD"). This is why there is not a RogueKiller log attached, I couldn't even run it without it crashing my computer every time (I tried 3 times). The BSOD occurred right after trying to run RogueKiller every single time.

    The rest of the required logs are attached.

    When MGtools tried to run HijackThis, it produced an error. Other than that, I did not encounter any other errors with MGtools.

    Note: One of the things discovered was something related to Vuze. I use Vuze to get legal freebie music ONLY (meaning the band is actually the one who released something for free through torrenting). A good example of this is the Industrial music band Ministry recently with their "Ministry Mondays" releases. One of my hobbies is DJing for Online Radio. I do not pirate any music illegally.

    There are no real malware issues in your logs. I only saw a few minor adware type items which could be due to installing Vuze.

    You're welcome.



    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. If you are running Win 8, Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below to flush restore points:
      • Refer to the instructions for your WIndows version in this link: Disable And Enable System Restore​
      • What we want you to do is to first disable System Restore to flush restore points some of which could be infected.
      • Then we want you to Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    8. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
