    Rerun RogueKiller and have it remove these items:

    Code:
    ¤¤¤ Registry Entries : 3 ¤¤¤
    [RUN][SUSP PATH] HKLM\[...]\Run : Kernel and Hardware Abstraction Layer (KHALMNPR.EXE [7]) -> FOUND
    [PROXY IE][PUM] HKCU\[...]\Internet Settings : ProxyServer (socks= [Country: (Private Address) (XX), City: (Private Address)]) -> FOUND
    Then remove these:
    Code:
    ¤¤¤ Particular Files / Folders: ¤¤¤
    [Tr.Karagany][Folder] plugs : C:\Documents and Settings\Scott\Application Data\Adobe\plugs [-] --> FOUND
    [Tr.Karagany][Folder] shed : C:\Documents and Settings\Scott\Application Data\Adobe\shed [-] --> FOUND
    Then Rerun Hitman and have it remove all the:
    Potential Unwanted Programs


    http://imageshack.us/a/img841/7292/thisisujrt.gif Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.
    • Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.
    • Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista or Seven, right-mouse click it and select Run as Administrator.
    • The tool will open and start scanning your system.
    • Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.
    • On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
    • Attach JRT.txt to your next message.

    Be sure to tell me how things are running.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the help!

    Still having an issue with Chrome. Firefox is fixed. JRT log is attached.

    Also, when I re-ran Rogue Killer, I selected the item below, but I believe it deleted everything that it found. I attached these logs also.

    <code>¤¤¤ Registry Entries : 3 ¤¤¤
    [RUN][SUSP PATH] HKLM\[...]\Run : Kernel and Hardware Abstraction Layer (KHALMNPR.EXE [7]) -> FOUND
    [PROXY IE][PUM] HKCU\[...]\Internet Settings : ProxyServer (socks= [Country: (Private Address) (XX), City: (Private Address)]) -> FOUND</code>

    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:
