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 ComboFix
.
  • Hold down the Windows key + R on your keyboard. This will display the Run dialogue box
  • In the Run box, type in ComboFix /Uninstall (Notice the space between the "x" and "/") then click OK
    .

    .
  • Follow the prompts on the screen
  • A message should appear confirming that ComboFix was uninstalled
.
Run OTL and hit the cleanup button.  It will remove all the programmes we have used plus itself. 
.
We will now confirm that your hidden files are set to that, as some of the tools I use will change that
  • Click Start.
  • Open My Computer.
  • Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
  • Select the View Tab.
  • Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Do not show hidden files and folders.
  • Click Yes to confirm.
  • Click OK.
.
 
Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system.
Please follow these steps to remove older version of Java components and upgrade the application.
.
 Upgrading Java:
  • Go to this site  and click Do I have Java
  • It will check your current version and then offer to update to the latest version
.
SPRING CLEAN
.
To manually create a new Restore Point
 
  • Go to Control Panel and select System
  • Select System
  • On the left select System Protection and accept the warning if you get one
  • Select System Protection Tab
  • Select Create at the bottom
  • Type in a name i.e. Clean
  • Select Create
.
Now we can purge the infected ones
  • GoStart > All programs > Accessories > system tools
  • Right click Disc cleanup and select run as administrator
  • Select Your main drive and accept the warning if you get one
  • For a few moments the system will make some calculations
  • Select the More Options tab
  • In the System Restore and Shadow Backups select Clean up
  • Select Delete on the pop up
  • Select OK
  • Select Delete
.
Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:

Malwarebytes.  Update and run weekly to keep your system clean
.
Download and install FileHippo update checker and run it monthly it will show you which programmes on your system need updating and give a download link
.
It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated. To keep your operating system up to date visit
To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read our little guide  How did I get infected in the first place ?

Keep safe  :wave:

Small problem that seems to be related to the Virus removal?

Before the virus I was sharing my printer on the network. File and Network dicsovery were enabled under networks. The other day I tried to print a document from my other pc and it just hung in the print que.

I went to the Network list and tried to access the printer but it did not exist. I tried to add a network printer and it came back none found.

I went to the main PC that we did the virus removal on and tried to re-enable print sharing on the printer but it came back with an error.

I then went to network settings and looked at Network Discovery and file and print sharing and they were both turned off.

I figured it was just one of those things and I turned them back on and checked to see if I could share my printer. No good same error.

I went back and looked and file and print sharing and network discovery were both off again. It seems they won't stay enabled.

I did a litte research and it seems certain services need to be running for the system to be able to share through the network.

        o Computer Browser
        o DHCP Client
        o DNS Client
        o Network Connections
        o Network Location Awareness
        o Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
        o Server
        o TCP/IP NetBIOS helper
        o Workstation

Some were not started for some reason so I started them, however the Computer Browser will not start. Error is 1060 specified service does not exist as an installed service.

I am at a loss if the above information I found is 100% accurate, but it seems to be a common thread for this issue.

I tried everything I could think off, turned off NIS, reboot in safe mode, changed network card driver etc.

Just to make sure I checked the other PC (which had no virus) and the Computer Browser service is running.

Could the virus removal have done something to the registry causing this issue?

Can we repair this?

Once Again I thank you for any guidance you can provide me.

OK repair time

run farbar service scanner



Tick "All" options.
Press "Scan".
It will create a log (FSS.txt) in the same directory the tool is run.

Please copy and paste the log to your reply.

Yes the Windows Update started perfectly.

The Windows Defender started and then stopped, saying some services stop automatically if not in use by other services or programs.

Defender probably because I run NIS 2012, and both can't run together?
