And now we wait....  essexboy will let you know if you actually still have an active infection or if Avast! killed it.

Please be patient.  All looks good from here (posting the logs I mean).

Hi just to put you mind at rest :

AdwCleaner can do a scan function only if you wish and will still produce a log for me to see
OTL is a diagnostic tool that I can use to remove any bad entries, sometimes it will not be strong enough and I may need to use a stronger tool.  But, I will tell you
AswMBR is again a diagnostic tool, but do not press any button apart from save log  :D

HI Essexboy I just thought I would tell you that if you go to the second page of this topic the logs you need are at the bottom of the second page.  Just letting you now.

Have a good day
ps: the logs are for Windows Vista home Basic only.

thanks

HI I was wondering if someone could please tell me more about Essexboy is he a certified malware expert?  How long has he been cleaning computers of malware infections for?

He will not wreck my computer right he only gets rid of the bad stuff on your computer for you and at the end of this cleaning off the bad stuff my computer will still work right.  Just curious that is all I just want more information that is all.

Thanks very much for your time and help.

I am an instructor at GeekstoGo Malware school, but it is only right that you should know who is asking you to run programmes on your system  ;D

Ok this run with OTL will remove the active search bars etc.. that are not considered to be effective or useful as they will only send you where they want as opposed to where you really want to go
I will also remove some redundant elements.
I will also empty all the temporary files/folders on the computer
Prior to all of this OTL will create a restore point for you.

From the logs posted there is no apparent malware just the advertising stuff which will slow down your computer.

Warning This fix is only relevant for this system and no other, using on another computer may cause problems

Be advised that when the fix commences it will shut down all running processes and you may lose the desktop and icons, they will return on reboot

Run OTL
  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following

HI Essexboy I was wanting to ask a question should I have put the following when I did the first scan without the following stuff stuff below does it make a difference in the logs here is the stuff I am talking about below:
    Select All Users
    Under the Custom Scan box paste this in

netsvcs
BASESERVICES
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
/md5start
services.*
explorer.exe
winlogon.exe
Userinit.exe
svchost.exe
winsock.*
/md5stop

I am  sorry if I forgot to put this stuff in the otl's custom fix box the first time Essexboy.

HI Essexboy I tried your fix and everything seemed fine when I put your fix in the Custom box of olt and pushed the fix button everything seemed to be fine then otl was not responding so I pushed the button to start my computer over again this time I made sure I had all my windows and folders closed and then I did the exact thing again and this time otl was not responding but before that avast free had just updated.  I was wondering Essexboy should I disable avast free before I start the fix with otl.

Thanks have a good day
