OK,

Weatherbug or Commodo. If I try to manually uninstall it, it opens up the software and asks me to upgrade it.

Got tied up with things around the house. Sorry for some delay here.

Did you try an uninstall GeekBuddy?


See if you can remove Chromium with Revo uninstaller,

Please download and install Revo Uninstaller Free save the file to the desktop.

• Double click Revo Uninstaller to run it.
• From the list of programs double click on The Program to remove
• When prompted if you want to uninstall click Yes.
• Be sure the Moderate option is selected then click Next.
• The program will run, If prompted again click Yes
• when the built-in uninstaller is finished click on Next.
• Once the program has searched for leftovers click Next.
• Check/tick the bolded items only on the list then click Delete
• when prompted click on Yes and then on next.
• put a check on any folders that are found and select delete
• when prompted select yes then on next
• Once done click Finish.
  
  Let me know..

Thanks.

 

I checked/deleted the bolded item, and it finished deleting it, according to the software. Afterward, I clicked Next, and then Finish. I was not prompted to check any further folders (as indicated on your third to final step).

Thanks, I tried looking for Geekbuddy on the Revo Uninstaller, but I couldn't find it. 

 

I went through the Fixlist.txt steps and restarted. Here is the log it produced.

ok,

What about Chromium can we remove that using revo ?

How is the computer right now ?

[cblock]

The Chromium was removed. At least, I think it was, according to the Revo.

 

The computer is acting much better. Not having the Comodo Geekbuddy alerts popping up every 15 seconds, is a big improvement. 

[zep516]

OK,

If there are no further issues we can close the topic.

[cblock]

Great, thanks a lot for all the help!

[zep516]

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:
