I am resetting various registry keys to default that your previous AV failed to do ..  Webroot I believe

thanks essexboy,
i ran webroot removal tool -no traces were found.

Close all open programs and internet browsers
-should i close avast as well while running FRST and  AdwCleaner.exe?
i attached  AdwCleaner scan log -i did not clean nothing yet...
i can see it contain info about Headlight lightning download program and Hola plugin as well-i dont want to delete/loosing them.
to tell you the true i don't like messing with registry stuff, even though i see that you made a restore point entry.
do you think it'll solve my animating icon issue?

I can see no indication of another AV now.. 

Download Avast Uninstall Utility to your Desktop.
Download the correct version of Avast 
Avast Free
Avast Pro
Avast Internet Security
Avast Premier
Disconnect from the net
Uninstall Avast via control panel

  • Run the uninstall tool and accept the reboot to safe mode
  • Once complete reboot your system
  • Reinstall Avast

When you scan do the file names change as it is scanning ?

OK I am now running a quick scan and my icon does not rotate however, files are being scanned

here are the logs
- noticed this line in Addition.txt
AV: Microsoft Security Essentials (Disabled - Out of date) {EDB4FA23-53B8-4AFA-8C5D-99752CCA7095} but it was in the previous log yesterday as well.
Anyway i did not find EDB4FA23-53B8-4AFA-8C5D-99752CCA7095 in the registry.
-during FRST scan (my browser was off ), there was icon animation BUT it stops when FRST was scanning internet explorer, then the icon animated again while continue to scan other files....
