Ok, all done, and there were some interesting results. which I'll jump ahead to. No viruses or malware were found this time, yet the computer continued to open browsers slowly even after the Windows clean boot. HOWEVER, after I reset Windows to normal startup, browsers are now performing quite a bit better. As a result, I ran a second VEW log in case the one prior to clean boot for some reason differs from the one after. So:
1. MBAM log, which shows no threats. However, the program quarantined a PUP file called c:\RECYCLER\S-1-5-21-1547161642-1292428093-1177238915-500\Dc3.exe

4. As noted above, immediately after clean boot there seemed to be little difference in browser performance, but everything speeded up after I reset windows to normal startup and rebooted again. Then I ran VEW again for whatever info it might provide:
