    So yeah, having some trouble with a nasty bug and it seems like you've been able to help quite a few others.

    So here is my plea for a little assistance.

    I've included the FRST scan log

    Welcome to MajorGeeks, Chimpzy :)

    NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system

    Attached is fixlist.txt
    • Save fixlist.txt to your flash drive.
    • You should now have both fixlist.txt and FRST64.exe on your flash drive.

    Now re-enter System Recovery Options.
    Run FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
    The tool will make a log on the flashdrive (Fixlog.txt).
    Please attach this to your next message. (How to attach)

    Now attempt to boot normally and remember to attach the Fixlog.txt.

    That seems to have done the trick.

    At the very least I've got access to my desktop again, though all my desktop icons are gone. I don't know if that is normal.

    Anyway, thank you for the help. Much appreciated.

    I'll continue with e Malware Removal guide.

    Can you right-mouse click anywhere on the blank desktop.
    A little menu should appear: View -> Show Desktop Icons
    Make sure Show Desktop Icons is checked. You may have to toggle it.
    You can also delete the C:\FRST folder at this time.

    yeah, i know. Stupid me. The relief of being able to use my computer must've deleted all my knowledge on how to actually use it.

    Anyway, I'd like to thank you again for your swift and effective help.
