That Malwarebytes report only covers updates.

Did it run a scan? If so please refer to post #12 for instructions on how to find the scan log paste it back here.

Next

Download the attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop.

NOTE. It's important that both files, FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system

Run FRST/FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post it to your reply.

After that

Please download Farbar Service Scanner and run.
 

  • Make sure the following options are checked:

     
  • Internet Services
  • Windows Firewall
  • System Restore
  • Security Center/Action Center
  • Windows Update
  • Windows Defender
  • Other Services
  • Press Scan
  • A log (FSS.txt) will be created in the same directory the tool is run.
  • Copy and paste the log back here.

So when you return please post

  • MBAM log
  • Fixlog.txt
  • FSS.txt

Okay, let's leave that one for now.

 

Please complete the Farbar Recovery Scan fix that I posted.

 

After that

 

If you haven't already run Farbar Service Scanner, leave the FSS scan for now and instead try this:

 

Please download ComboFix from this location:

Link

* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop

Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools.
 

  • Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • If you have an older Operating System you may be asked whether you want to install the Recovery Console. Click yes and follow any prompts.
  • Your desktop may go blank. This is normal.
  • ComboFix may appear to be doing nothing for quite long periods, this is normal, just leave it to do it's job.
  • ComboFix may reboot your machine. This is normal too.

**Note: Do not mouseclick combo-fix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

When finished, it will produce a log for you.  Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.

 

So when you return please post

Fixlog.txt

ComboFix.txt

Trying again is the best option.

 

There are infections out there that mess with permissions in an endeavour to stop removal of the malicious files. I think that might be causing ComboFix to hang. Running it again can often work.

 

We will see what happens. Be good to get it to work if we can but if not, then we will have to look at other options. Make sure you don't touch your machine while ComboFix is running. Any action while it is working can stop it or cause it to hang. :)

Yes I think we need to move on.

 

There are application and system errors being reported in the FRST logs.

 

Let's see if we can address them and then look at other actions as necessary.

 

Firstly, have you tried a Startup Repair?

 

If not please, go to Win 7 Startup Repair for instructions on how to carry out a Startup Repair.

 

Try that and come back afterwards and tell me if there is any difference. :)

I am not a techie but that looks to me as if you might have a hardware problem.
 
Please run Chkdsk:

  • Right click on the Start > Open Windows Explorer.
  • Find the hard drive letter (usually local disk C)  for which you want to run the Chkdsk utility.
  • Right-click on the driver letter and select Properties > Tools.
  • Under the Error-Checking section of the window, click the Check Now button. If you have User Account Controls enabled, a window will pop up asking permission to continue. Click Continue.
  • Click to have Chkdsk Automatically fix file system errors and to Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.
  • Click Start.
  • Chkdsk might take a very long time to run, depending on the number of files and folders, the size of the volume, disk performance, and available system resources (such as processor and memory).

Chkdsk will not run if the drive you wish to check is in use. You will be requested to schedule Chkdsk. Click Schedule Check Disk, it then will run the next time you boot your computer. Shut down your computer and then turn it back on, Chkdsk will run.
 
If you need further help go here for information on how to run Chkdsk in Windows 7
 
Come back and tell me how it went.

Seems 'HAL' has a mind of its' own, upon reboot, chkdsk is automatically done, but not the Automatically Fix File System Error area. shall TRY to to that...

...thanks for YOUR patience...

Yes I think that would be a good idea.

 

Also

 

Please use the System File Checker tool (SFC.exe) to check your system and replace files where necessary.

To do this, follow these steps:

  • To do this, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
  • If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow.
  • Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
    sfc /scannow Please note that there is a single space between sfc and /scannow.

The sfc /scannow command scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with correct Microsoft versions.

 

 

Tell me how it all goes. :)
