    I've been getting redirecting to sites such as pleasewaitclick.com and others since I have turned on my computer today. Norton won't open so obviously something is on here. Malwarebytes isn't picking anything up. Yesterday when Norton was on it blocked and apparently quarantined something called "Hacktool.rootkit" and everything was okay after that seemlingly. My computer started off by being extremely loud yesterday when I turned it on and moving very slowl. I ctrl+alt+dlt'd to see what processes were running, and one was kind of odd that was taking up a bit of usage. something that ended in "32.exe", I read up on it and it seemed like it could have possibly been a trojan or something of the sort, but before I could end the process it disappeared and everything started working fine.... until I turned my computer off and turned it back on. Norton is not on my toolbar nor will it run if I click on it. Nothing has picked it up either.

    My leads:
    - "pleasewaitclick.com" redirecting on sites such as Yahoo, Google, and YouTube even.
    - "hacktool.rootkit"
    - "...32.exe"

    Thanks in advance!

    Sorry for doublepost, the edit button has seemed to disappear...

    Anyways, I forgot to save the malwarebytes log and will be running combofix in a second and will attach those logs when I get the chance for you guys.

    Once again, no edit button, so sorry for another post.

    I ran malware overnight, my system restarted itself. When I turned it back on, Norton was back. Norton told me to restart again ro remove the threat and I got a "System has recovered from serious error" message as well. So I did, and here I am. But, the redirecting is still happening.

    Combofix doesn't run on my computer apparently, and my Malwarebytes log did not show up in it's logs list. :\

    The scanner logs are located here:
    Please continue on with the remainder of running the R & R ME First Guide and attach as many of the logs as you can.
