Let's do some cleanup and also let me know how the computer is now.

Let's clear out the programs we've been using to clean up your computer, they are not suitable for
general malware removal and could cause damage if launched accidentally. These steps will also help secure the work you have done.
.
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox
  • Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /u
  • Then hit Enter.
.
.
The above procedure will:
  • Delete:
    • ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
    • VundoFix backups, if present
    • The C:\Deckard folder, if present
    • The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
    • Reset the clock settings.
    • Hide file extensions, if required.
    • Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
    • Set a new, clean Restore Point.
    .
    ----------

    Download OTMoveIt2 by OldTimer OTMoveIt2.exe and place it on your desktop. (unless you already have it installed)

    1. Double click OTMoveIt2.exe to launch it.
    Vista users right click and choose Run As Administrator
    2. Click on the CleanUp! button.
    3. OTMoveIt2 will download a list from the Internet, if your firewall or other defensive programs alerts you, allow it access.
    4. Click YES at the next prompt (list downloaded, Do you want to begin cleanup process?)
    5. Once complete exit out of OTMoveIt2

    ----------

    Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software.
    • Click Start Now
    • Check the box next to Enable thorough system inspection.
    • Click Start
    • Allow the scan to finish and scroll down to see if any updates are needed.
    • Update anything listed.
    .
    ----------

    Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates.



    How is everything now?
