Hello Lifein8one3

I am just keeping an eye on things whilst Octagonal is away. I have looked at the Kaspersky log and most of it is taken up with System Restore and Temporary Internet Files.

Please delete your temporary files.

Click on START > RUN > type in cleanmgr and hit ENTER

You will see a window asking you to choose your harddrive (most likely C: Drive)

Click it and Windows will now scan the drive and show you the results

Make sure the following are checked:Downloaded Program Files
Temporary Internet Files and
Recycle Bin
Compress Old Files (if you want more disk space)

Click OK and Disk Cleanup will delete those files for you.

Next, go to Start>Run>type in %temp% hit Enter and delete the content of all the temp folders shown (only the content, not the folder). A couple of files may be in memory and will not therefore delete, this is normal.

With regard to the AVG log, please ensure that you correctly set up the programme before running it. You have to physically alter its default settings.

Please post the AVGas log together with a fresh HJT log from normal mode.

I think we have crossed wires. AVG antivirus is not the same as AVG antispyware. The one we want you to run is the latter and not the former.

Hi Lifein8one3,

I'm have returned from my absence and will now be assisting you again.

If you are still having problems with the AVG Anti-Spyware scan and finding the report please let me know so that I can suggest an alternative approach.

Thanks.

Hi Lifein8one3,

Do you still have Ewido Anti-Spyware installed?

If so, then please update the file signatures and then do a complete system scan with Ewido Anti-Spyware and post the results of that scan like you have done earlier.

Also post a fresh HijackThis log for me to review and let me know if you are still experiencing any problems with your computer.

If you no longer have Ewido Anti-Spyware installed on your computer just post the HijackThis log and let me know how your computer is running.
