Hi ceradecke,
Congratulations, your new log looks clear, so we can now deal with some final clean up jobs.
Clean out cookies, temp files etc:
Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only
To Clear Restore points, please do the following:
Remove files:
Time for some housekeeping:
The above procedure will:
Lastly, some extra or better security for your PC:
The programs recommended below are freeware alternatives to some of your security software & might reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future:-
Spyware Prevention:
Spyware Blaster by JavaCool Software, prevents spyware installing and consumes no system resources.
IE/SpyAd, stops suspect sites loading ActiveX, popups etc onto your PC. An excellent tutorial is Here
Spyware Detection:
AVG Anti-Spyware is my favourite here.
Anti-Virus:
The first line of defence, especially since some will now detect trojans as well.
Avira's Antivir PersonalEdition Classic and Grisoft's Avast! Free Edition are among the best freebies.
*Please note* You should never install more than one anti-virus program on a PC, as it will cause conflicts.
Firewall:
A Firewall is an essential tool in the security of any PC connected to the Internet.
Sunbelt Personal Firewall and Comodo are both excellent freeware.
Alternate Browsers:
Thankfully, there are now some excellent alternatives to MS Internet Explorer. They offer better security, more stability, and better speed.
A couple of good examples are: Firefox and Opera
Other Updates:
Vital security patches and updates are available for Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer at the Windows Update Site
It is equally important to update the other security software you use, on a regular basis.
Further reading about these issues is available in a very good article: How did I get infected in the first place ? (by Tony Klein and dvk01)
All the best & safe surfing in the future,
