boot scan - corrupt files?

[a_vast]

Hi,

I did a boot scan after an unnotified infection and got the following -

Is it possible to find the log from this boot scan please?

--------------------------------------------------

Currently I have problems - have done a full virus scan with Malwarebytes, but the desktop 32 bit Win7 is behaving strangely. Internet Provider is slow and hangs or crashes, and last night I couldn't boot down. The IP will also not close then crashes when you try again to close or "will not respond".

Any clues please?

Have also run CC Cleaner (which hung in normal mode but worked in Safe Mode) and Adw-Cleaner, although I notice the icon for adw is grey instead of brown, the original program asked to be updated which is when the brown icon swapped for the grey)

Thanks,

files/archives that are corrupt is not something avast can do anything about.... it is just a error message
it does not meane the files are infected. avast sometimes say corrupt about archives it can not unpack and scan

if you want a malware check, follow the logs guide at top in virus and worms section
when logs are attached, malware experts will be notified....

Hi,

Thanks. I just did a full Malwarebytes scan in Safe Mode. The result was negative, no files infected. So I booted back into normal mode and went to open Malwarebytes to check on the protection status. The computer immediately froze, only the mouse left working. I did a manual restart back into Safe Mode but have no idea where to go from here? I am typing this on a laptop.

Advice please.

Thanks again -

follow guide and attach logs...not copy and paste   http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

AdwCleaner / OTL / aswMBR

Pondus thanks: can I get at these logs in Safe Mode please?

Otherwise, am getting worried by Adw_Cleaner. I was just asked by its company 'Xplode' to download the latest version - I did (red icon) and it cleaned some files but when I rebooted it had disappeared, it is nowhere on my laptop: what is happening please? This is a very useful program but after a while it always asks to be updated and then everything starts to go pear shaped?

Am giving the desktop a full AVAST scan because I can't think of anything else to do at the moment, something has really upset this 2Core :-o

Right, nice and slow as she comes - am typing this on the desktop which seems to have recovered its senses after 12 hours of mayhem. Both the recent Avast and Malwarebytes full Safe Mode scans returned negative infected files.

But I cannot log as you recommend because this is the only ADW dialogue box I am seeing:-

I am attaching ADW and MBAM logs - hope these are the right ones? Here goes.

Cannot download http://public.avast.com/~gmerek/aswMBR.htm - it either disappears without trace or turns up as a file that my computer cannot open.

Thanks - have done - woah! what the Friday did OTL do?

Computer starting to behave like it's old self again (relief)

[essexboy]

Mainly we cleared all the temp files and caches

Try a defrag and that might speed it up a bit more

If all is well tomorrow I will tidy up
