The only item to tick would be the rootkit scan which is found here: Settings > Detection and Protection > Scan for rootkits. :thumbsup:

If threats are detected, click the Apply Actions button, MBAM will ask for a reboot.

On completion of the scan (or after the reboot), start MBAM,

Click History, then Application Logs, then check the Select box by the first Scan Log in the list.

Click View, then click Export, select text file and save to the desktop as MBAM.txt and post in your next reply.

Hi :)

There is no log.txt file located in the C:\program files (x86)\ESET\ESET Online Scanner directory?

If not, did you see if it had picked anything up?

Most of the time ESET picks up the files already quarantined, but let's run one last scan with FRST to make sure everything is clear. If so, we'll
start updating your programs. :thumbsup:
  • Start Farbar's Recovery Scan Tool and press the Scan button.
  • FRST will scan your system and produce one log this time. Please post it in your next reply.

Hi, :)

Let's get that CBS log that you were denied access to earlier and make sure that Norton and Kaspersky are completely removed from the machine.


Step 1: Retrieve CBS Log
  • Click on the Start button and in the search box, type Command Prompt
  • When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator
  • When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following command into it, press enter
  • copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log %userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt
  • This will create a file, cbs.txt on your Desktop. Please zip/attach this to your next post.
Please Note:: if the file is too big to upload to your next post please upload via a service such as Dropbox or One Drive or SendSpace and just provide the link.

Also, do you have Windows 7 Install Media on the machine, in case a repair installation is needed?


Step 2: Run Norton Removal Tool

Let's make sure that all of Norton was removed when it was uninstalled. Some times, they can leave remnants behind. Please follow the link below to find instructions on downloading the tool and running it.

https://support.nort...erProfile_en_us


Step 3: Kaspersky Removal Tool

Let's also do the same for Kaspersky's Anti-Virus. Please click the link below and then click on How to Use the utility.

CBS.log

Did the removal of Norton's and Kaspersky go ok?
