    This is my original post. All logs are attached.

    After selecting a command with cursor, the text does not go away, usually just on the first 1 or 2 incidences per log in. Desktop icons just started playing musical chairs. Ex. the speccy icon now opens Chrome. However the title is correct. Lots of BSODs with various reasons. They are getting fewer. Tried to use CCleaner and options on left hand side of display are not there. When I analyze no files are selected for cleaning.
    Updated all drivers using DriverBoost from Advanced System Care 7 a week ago but a lot of problems were there before.
    Was using Comodo Internet Security but seemed to be giving a lot of problems.
    Running out of patience, please help.

    You are not having a malware issue. I suggest you continue on with your thread in software.

    Thanks. I am not sure if that is good news or not.

    Well, hopefully they can assist you in that forum.

    Since you are not having any 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.

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