Please download and run MicroSoft Safety Scanner. This will take about 20 minutes to run and will produce a log if your computer was infected. Please post the log. This scanner only has a shelf life of 10 days so you will need to download a new one if you want to run a scan after the trial period has expired.
***********************************
Download GMER Rootkit Scanner from here.

•Double click the .exe file. If asked to allow gmer.sys driver to load, please consent
•If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan...click on NO
•In the right panel, you will see several boxes that have been checked. Uncheck the following ...
   *Sections
   *IAT/EAT
   *Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
   *Show All (don't miss this one)
•Then click the Scan button & wait for it to finish
•Once done click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "Gmer.txt" or it will save as a .log file
•Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop, and post it in reply
**Caution**
Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<--- ROOKIT" entries

        No, that won't help much. Please run this scan.

        Please download aswMBR.exe ( 511KB ) to your desktop.

        Double click the aswMBR.exe to run it



        Click the "Scan" button to start scan

        Note: Do not take action against any **Rootkit** entries until I have reviewed the log. Often there are false positives



        On completion of the scan click save log, save it to your desktop and post in your next reply

          We need to fix the Master Boot Record using aswMBR now.

          • Double click aswMBR.exe to run it like before
          • Once the scan finishes click FixMBR to remove the infection as illustrated below


          • Once the scan finishes click Save log to save the log to your Desktop



          • Copy and paste the contents of aswMBR.txt back here for review
          .

                ya it used to slowly climb and i think it still might because it used to slowly go to 80-90% but now when i have all my stuff up i get 80-90% so idk if its my stuff or not...but when it slowly climbs like in the beginning i have nothing running

                my startup is
                microsoft intellipoint
                hot key daemon
                realtek voice manager
                hd audio control panel
                microsoft security client
                epson status monitor 3
                googletoolbarnotifier
                eeventmanager application
                java(tm) platform SE auto updater


                this is all that is enabled
