Many issues
« on: April 01, 2015, 11:20:59 AM »
So since about 5-6pm on March 31st, my computer has been rather bogged down with ctfmon.exe. msiexec.exe, NOTEPAD.exe, cmd.exe, exporer.exe and possible others. Avast keeps popping up showing certain IPs are being block as well as xmlka url. I've ran smart scan, full system scan, and boot scan, and all haven't fixed the issue.

I'm honestly at a loss for what I have to do.

Edit: Just got another Avast pop up blocking some moviereview url site.

Here are the logs you asked for. MBAM apparently resolved the issues though.

Subject to no further problems   :)

I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems 

Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean  :thumbsup:

A good workman always cleans up after himself so..The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset  System Restore points:

Remove tools

Download and run Delfix
Select the options as shown


Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:

CryptoPrevent install this programme to lock down and prevent crypto ransome ware



Malwarebytes.

Update and run weekly to keep your system clean

Unchecky

Click on the link above to be taken to Unchecky.com
click the very large Download button.
click Save
Click Open folder
Right click on the Unchecky_setup and choose to Run as Administrator
Once open click the Install button.
Then click on Finish
Unchecky is now installed and will help you keep unwanted check boxes unchecked, this is a fire and forget programme  ;)

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.
