Lets check a few more things before I let you go.

Download Security Check by screen317 from Here or Here
Save it to your Desktop.
Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

NOTE: If SecurityCheck aborts and you get the following message: UNSUPPORTED OPERATING SYSTEM! ABORTED! try rebooting the system and then run SecurityCheck again.

I'm getting conflicting messages about the windows Firewall. Lets make sure it's on by running the following,

Open notepad (Start =>All Programs => Accessories => Notepad).
Copy/Paste the contents of the code box below into Notepad.

start
CloseProcesses:
CMD: netsh advfirewall reset
CMD: netsh advfirewall set allprofiles state ON
Emptytemp:
Click Format and ensure Wordwrap is unchecked.
Save as Fixlist.txt to your Desktop (Must be in this location)
Run FRST/FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
If the tool needed a restart please make sure you let the system to restart normally and let the tool completes its run after restart.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post it to your reply.

Note: If the tool warns you about the version you're using being an outdated version please download and run the updated version.

Next
Your Java is out of date:

Note
Due to multiple security problems with Java we are now recommending that it not be installed unless you absolutely know you need it.
I would uninstall Java from the programs an Features menu, Click Start > Control Panel > Programs & Features, uninstall all Java.

Run the computer for a day and let me know how things are.

ok, I'll try and get to all this tonight or tomorrow night. Got a bit hectic around here. Just wondering, what exactly does Java do and what might  I need it for?

 

thanks,

Java is a programming language and used on some websites it's also used on some games. I uninstalled Java several years ago and have never missed it, nor needed it. I have seen that some online banking sites may require it.

Read more when time permits

I also need to sign off early to-nite and address some things around the house....

Plugins allow the browser to use more features so you can do things like view Flash animations or PDFs. They also help make some videos and audio files work better.

To answer your direct question, sometimes the plugin will fail and you may be prompted by that "continue or stop the plug in." You can choose stop the plugin and try whatever it was you were doing before the prompt.

Adobe Flash player will also do this too, adobe flash player is used to view UTube videos and other related videos on the web.

Back to the computer, since every scan we have run has turned up adware lets run a final scan called ESET.
This scan will take a long time, so don't wait for it, start it then have dinner :). You can post this Tomorrow or whenever you get time and I'll look at the results. Instructions to follow,


ESET Online Scanner

Note: You can use either Internet Explorer or Mozilla FireFox for this scan. You will however need to disable your current installed Anti-Virus, how to do so can be read here.
  • Please go >>HERE<< then click on: ESET1st.jpg

    Note: If using Mozilla Firefox you will need to download esetsmartinstaller_enu.exe when prompted then double click on the ESETexe.jpg icon to install.

    All of the below instructions are compatible with either Internet Explorer or Mozilla FireFox.
  • Select the option YES, I accept the Terms of Use then click on: ESETsave.jpg
  • When prompted allow the Add-On/Active X to install.
  • Make sure that the option Remove found threats is NOT checked, and the option Scan archives is checked.
  • Now click on Advanced Settings and select the following:
    • Scan for potentially unwanted applications
    • Scan for potentially unsafe applications
    • Enable Anti-Stealth Technology
  • Now click on: EOLS3.gif
  • The virus signature database... will begin to download. Be patient this make take some time depending on the speed of your Internet Connection.
  • When completed the Online Scan will begin automatically.
  • Do not touch either the Mouse or keyboard during the scan otherwise it may stall.
  • When completed make sure you first copy the logfile located at C:\Program Files (x86)\ESET\Esetonlinescanner\log.txt).
  • Copy and paste that log as a reply to this topic.
  • Now click on: EOLS4.gif
    (Selecting Uninstall application on close if you so wish)
Post the ESET scan results when you can.....

Thanks
Joe :)

Hey Joe,
Just wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten about running that last scan. Haven't been home early enough to run it yet this week. Hopefully in the next day or so. Thanks for the help.

Hello,

There is nothing there to worry about. Your machine is free of malware / adware.

How is it running ?

Well, the double log in hasn't happened recently. Firefox still crashes more than I would like but, hey it is a few years old. Replacing it will have to wait as I have to get a new a/c unit for my home. So, those 4 things at the bottom of the log aren't anything to worry about?
