Well done, your log appears clean :)

Now lets uninstall Combofix:
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the /u, it needs to be there.

The link to OTC.exe seems broken. Is there another place to download it from.

Thank you for your time and effort in getting me back on the right path.

Got the link figured out.

This is where the link is pointing to:
http://oldtimer.geek...om/OTC.exe[/url

Changed the link to:
http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTC.exe

Worked and got me what I needed.

Thanks again for your help.
