Hello mo32091,

Welcome to Geekstogo.

I guess if you don't have internet access you will have to download this to a thumb drive or some such and transfer to the infected computer.

Download OTL to your Desktop

  • Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so.

    o When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
    o Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post back here.
Note: Unless otherwise instructed always post the logs in the forum. If reports don't fit on one post. It might be necessary to break the logs up to get them on the forum. Just use as many posts as you need, that's fine. :)
