Hello again,

Okay then, here is the good news and the final removal steps:

Your machine appears to be clean! :thumbsup:

Let's do some housekeeping now:



The following steps will implement some cleanup procedures. It will also reset your System Restore by flushing out previous restore points and create a new restore point. It will also remove all the backups our tools may have made.


Step 1

DeFogger:

Note** This only needs to be run if it was run before - If not then skip it this step.

To re-enable your Emulation drivers, double click DeFogger to run the tool.
  • The application window will appear
  • Click the Re-enable button to re-enable your CD Emulation drivers
  • Click Yes to continue
  • A 'Finished!' message will appear
  • Click OK
  • DeFogger will now ask to reboot the machine - click OK
Your Emulation drivers are now re-enabled.

==========

Step 2

Uninstall adwCleaner:
  • Double click on adwcleaner.exe to run the tool.
  • Click on Uninstall.
  • Confirm with yes.
==========

We will now remove the tools we used during this cleanup, with Delfix:

Step 3

Download and Run Delfix:

bwebb7v.jpgDownload Delfix from here and save it to your desktop.
  • As seen in the image below, ensure Remove disinfection tools is checked.

  • Also place a checkmark next to:
    • Create registry backup
    • Purge system restore
  • Click the Run button.
  • When the tool is finished, a log will open in notepad. Please copy and paste the log in your next reply.
==========


Any programs and logs that are left over you can just delete from the desktop.


Are you having any additional problems at this point? If so, please let me know. Otherwise feel free to enjoy use of your repaired machine! :thumbsup:

INFO-->Below is some more information and useful tools and tips about how to keep your computer safe in the future.<--INFO

The most common cause of an infected machine is the Trojan Horse, or programs which appear to be legitimate but which contain malicious payloads, or which are simply malicious in and of themselves. No antivirus, firewall, host-based intrusion prevention system (HIPS), or other security software can fully protect you against this kind of attack. The best way to project yourself is to practice safe surfing, not to run email attachments from untrusted sources, and avoid software downloaded from the internet wherever possible. Remember, when you run an application, you are giving that application permission to do to your machine anything you can do the machine, including create, modify, or destroy files or other data. In the Windows (and most other systems' such as Unix) security model, applications don't have privileges, users do.

The second most common cause of infection is out of date software. Leaving your system unpatched leaves holes through which attackers can execute code on your behalf without your consent. This goes for far more than common targets such as Windows and Internet Explorer. Most recent threats target other third party software, such as Adobe's Adobe Reader, Shockwave Player, or Flash Player, or Oracle's Java browser plugins. you can check your system for out of date software manually, or by using automated tools such as Secunia's Personal Software Inspector. This goes doubly for security applications such as antivirus and other antimalware products based on definition lists, where out of date lists mean no detection of newer malware.

Finally, occasionally you will be forced to run some potentially infected binary, or attackers will use a hole which is unpatched by software vendors, so a last line of defense is needed. That means turning on a firewall (the Windows Firewall included with Windows XP SP2 or later is fine) and leaving it on, and using and keeping an up to date antivirus solution such as ESET AntiVirus. Antiviral solutions don't even have to cost money; for instance Microsoft Secuity Essentials provides perfectly acceptable protection for free. If for some reason you don't like MSE, there are other free products available as well:
  • Avast (home use only)
  • Avira (shows nag screen to purchase full product when updating, home use only)
That should be fine for the majority of users. However, if you absolutely want additional protection, consider one or more of the following products:If you want more information on methods malware use to infect your computer, consider browsing our How did I get infected? topic.

==============================

Please respond to this post with the last Delfix log so I can close the thread, unless you have any other questions.


Best of regards, and happy surfing!! :happy:

Emsisoft is an excellent antivirus program if you were looking for a paid antivirus, so yes, I'd recommend it. :)
