Click > Start > click > Control Panel, in the control Panel interface click on Device Manger This will open device manger for you.

Once in device Manger Look for Network Adapters to the left of network adapters click on the arrow to expand the list of adapters, in the list look for your Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC Right click on it and choose Uninstall. Now reboot the computer, windows will reinstall the adapter for you.

Use the computer for a while and see if any change results.

Thanks
Joe :)

It happened again tonight. It seems to happen roughly between 10 and 11:30 the past 4 nights. Could it possibly be an issue with the service provider and not the computer?

Yes, call the service provider and let me know what they say. I'll keep this thread open. We still need to remove the tools we used. I'll give you instruction for that.

Good. I apologize again. I had a wedding at the end of May and then it just slipped my mind as other things were going on. But I think the problem has been resolved. Norton ran a scan a few times and then I don't believe I've been plagued since. Knock on wood

OK Doc,

Next

Since your log reports are clean and free of malware, lets clean up after ourselves.


OTL Clean-Up

Right click on the OTLicon.jpg icon on your desktop and choose Run as administrator to open the main window.

Next click on the CleanUpButtonOTL.jpg button.

Once clean up is complete you will be prompted to reboot your computer. Please do so.

This will remove most of the programs we have used including itself.


Next

Double-click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool again.
  • Click on the Uninstall button.
  • Click Yes when asked are you sure you want to uninstall.
  • Both AdwCleaner.exe, its folder and all logs will be removed.
Right click on the JRT Icon and select delete.
If there are any left over tools or logs on your computer please delete them now.


Next

You usually get infected because your security settings are too low.

Here are a number of recommendations that will help tighten them, and which will contribute to making you a less likely victim:
