Good deal Please run Farbar Service Scanner again so we can make sure that all of the services were repaired and post the new FSS.txt log in your next reply.

Looks like the Windows Repair (All-In-One) got everything except one value in the Security Center service. So we will add that. Then get an antivirus on the system and do a couple of scans to look for any residual malware files. If they are clean and you don't have any further issues we will be ready to clean up.


Step-1.

OTL Fix

Be advised that when the fix commences it will shut down all running processes and you may lose the desktop and icons, they will return on reboot

1. Please copy all of the text in the quote box below (Do Not copy the word Quote. To do this, highlight everything
inside the quote box (except the word Quote) , right click and click Copy.

:COMMANDS
[createrestorepoint]

:REG
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellServiceObjects\{FD6905CE-952F-41F1-9A6F-135D9C6622CC}]
"AutoStart" = ""

:COMMANDS
[emptytemp]

Warning: This fix is relevant for this system and no other. If you are not this user, DO NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system.

2. Please re-open on your desktop. To do that:

• Vista and 7 users: Right click the icon and click Run as Administrator

3. Place the mouse pointer inside the textbox, right click and click Paste. This will put the above script inside the textbox.
4. Click the button.
5. Let the program run unhindered.
6. OTL may ask to reboot the machine. Please do so if asked.
7. Click the button.
8. A report will open. Copy and Paste that report in your next reply.
9. If the machine reboots, the log will be located at C:\_OTL\MovedFiles\mmddyyyy_hhmmss.log, (where mmddyyyy_hhmmss is the date of the tool run).


Before you complete Steps 2 and 3 I want you to disable any screen saver you might have running.


Step-2.

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

Close all programs and browsers on your computer and disable any screen saver you might have running.

• Right click the MalwareBytes icon on the desktop. Click Run As Administrator, then click the Continue button on the UAC window. You will now be at the main program as shown below.
  
  
  
• Click the Update tab and update the program if required.
• Click the Scanner tab, make sure the the Perform full scan option is selected and then click on the Scan button to start scanning your computer.
  MBAM will now start scanning your computer for malware. This process can take quite a while, so I suggest you go and do something else and periodically check on the status of the scan. When MBAM is scanning it will look like the image below.
  
  
  
• When the scan is finished a message box will appear as shown in the image below.
  
  
  
  You should click on the OK button to close the message box and continue with the removal process.
  
• You will now be back at the main Scanner screen. At this point you should click on the Show Results button.
• A screen displaying all the malware that the program found will be shown as seen in the image below. Please note that the infections found may be different than what is shown in the image.
  
  
  
• Make sure that everything is checked EXCEPT items in System Restore (see the image below), and click Remove Selected<---Very Important.
  
  
  
• When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart.(See Extra Note)
• The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
• Copy&Paste the entire report in your next reply.

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 immediately.


Step-3.

Run ESET Online Scanner:

Note: You can use either Internet Explorer or Mozilla FireFox for this scan. You will however need to disable your current installed Anti-Virus, how to do so can be read here.

Vista / 7 users: You will need to to right-click on the either the IE or FF icon in the Start Menu or Quick Launch Bar on the Taskbar and select Run as Administrator from the context menu.

• Please go here then click on:
  
  

  Note: If using Mozilla Firefox you will need to download the ESET Smart Installer. Click on esetsmartinstaller_enu.exe to download the Smart Installer. Save it to the desktop.
  When prompted double click on the icon on the desktop.
  All of the below instructions are compatible with either Internet Explorer or Mozilla FireFox.

• Select the option YES, I accept the Terms of Use then click on:
• When prompted allow the Add-On/Active X to install.
• Uncheck the box beside Remove Found Threats
• Make sure that the option Scan archives is checked.
• Now click on Advanced Settings and select the following:
  • Scan for potentially unwanted applications
  • Scan for potentially unsafe applications
  • Enable Anti-Stealth Technology
• Now click on:
• The virus signature database... will begin to download. Be patient this make take some time depending on the speed of your Internet Connection.
• When completed the Online Scan will begin automatically. The scan may take several hours.
• Wait for the scan to finish. Do not touch either the Mouse or keyboard during the scan. Otherwise it may stall.

When The Scan is Complete:

• If No Threats Were Found:
  • Put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
  • Close the program
  • Report to me that nothing was found
• If Threats Were Found:
  • Click on "list of threats found"
  • Click on "export to text file" and save it to the desktop as ESET SCAN.txt
  • Click on Back
  • Put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close" (Be sure you have saved the file first)
  • Click on Finish
  • Close the program
  • Copy and paste the report here

Note: Do not forget to re-enable your Anti-Virus application and screen saver after running the above scan!


Step-4.

Install AV Program

• Please click here to go to our Free Antivirus and Antispyware Software page.
• Under the Free Antivirus Software section choose one antivirus program. Download it to the desktop, close the browser and all open windows.
• Right click the setup file, click Run as Administrator and OK any UAC prompts to start the installation. Follow any on screen prompts.

I would recommend that you install the Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus. It's virus definitions are among the best. It is light on system resources but the best part is that it is very simple to configure and automatically updates itself. So basically you just install it and configure it for real time protection and you're done.


Step-5.

Things For Your Next Post:
Please post the logs in the order requested. Do Not attach the logs unless I request it.
1. Let me know if you successfully got an antivirus installed.
2. How is the computer running now?
3. The OTL fix log
4. The MalwareBytes log
5. The ESET log (If it found anything). If it didn't just let me know.

Just checking in to let you know I'm still here...things got a bit hectic here, lost track of time since the last steps/response. Malware bites scan is currently running (has been for 9 hours). Will post again soon.

Good news all around. The last thing we need to do is check for any programs that need to be updated. Then if there aren't any further issues we will be ready to clean up the tools and wrap this puppy up
