Acer, HP... some other manufacturers, does not give the original CD but only the ability of creating the restore disks, not even the disk themselves, but the ability of creating them... it's not what I've said it's a good thing.
I did make a factory default... but I don't know if it's a repair cd, or a restore disk.
1. Disable System Restore and reenable it after step 3.
I didn't do it, because I never found any infections.
2. Clean your temporary files.
Yes
3. Schedule a boot time scanning with avast with archive scanning turned on. If avast does not detect it, you can try DrWeb CureIT! instead.
Done, no infections found.
4. Use SUPERantispyware, MBAM or Spyware Terminator to scan for spywares and trojans. If any infection is detected, better and safer is send the file to Quarantine than to simple delete than.
Scanned with SAS and MBAM no infections, not even a tracking cookie.
5. Test your machine with anti-rootkit applications. I suggest avast! antirootkit or Trend Micro RootkitBuster.
Used Blacklight, no hidden objects, files, processes found.
6. Make a HijackThis log to post here or, better, submit the RunScanner log to to on-line analysis.
Done, No harmful entries found.
7. Immunize your system with SpywareBlaster or Windows Advanced Care.
Already did a few months back.
8. Check if you have insecure applications with Secunia Software Inspector.
No...
Is there any other steps I can do? Or do you think I'm clean?
