Hi there :)

You seems to have leftovers from Symantec (Norton on your PC), this can conflict with Avast! so please run the Norton Removal tool that can be found here http://service1.syma...005033108162039

Did you install Anyplace Control Security?

Please follow these instructions in order.

First off,

Please go to Uploadmalware to upload a suspicious file for analysis.
  • Enter your username from this forum
  • Copy and paste the link to this thread
  • Browse for this filename: C:\windows\ShellIcon32.dll
  • In the comments, please mention that I asked you to upload this file
  • Click on Send File
You may need to show hidden files, which you can do by following the instructions found here.

Please open HijackThis again and choose "Do a system scan only". Please put a check next to each of the following entries (if still present):

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {03E0B753-15AB-43AA-A8A3-809089FEE882} - (no file)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {EAB976EB-6999-4847-AFAD-D28C6E7EA18A} - (no file)
O16 - DPF: {1D4DB7D2-6EC9-47A3-BD87-1E41684E07BB} - http://ak.exe.imgfar...p1.0.0.15-3.cab
O20 - Winlogon Notify: geBqQGXO - C:\windows\


Now please close all open windows except HJT and press "Fix checked".

Then,

Please download the OTMoveIt2 by OldTimer.
  • Save it to your desktop.
  • Please double-click OTMoveIt2.exe to run it. (Vista users, please right click on OTMoveit2.exe and select "Run as an Administrator")
  • Copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose Copy):

Next,

Let's give MBAM another shot.

  • Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan.
  • The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart.(See Extra Note)

Extra Note:
If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process,if asked to restart the computer,please do so immediatly.

And finally,


Click on Start, click on Run
