Do you still need some help?  Or are you getting assistance at another site?

Run a search with FRST.
  • Right click on FRST on your desktop and select "Run as Administrator..." When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Type browserupdatecheck;wpad into the Search Box.
  • Press the Search Registry button.
  • It will produce a log called search.txt or SearchReg.txt in the same directory the tool is run from.
  • Please attach the log file back here.
