      Attach them the same way you attached the SAS log. You can copy and paste the logs in your next post.

      If you don't know how to get the logs, it's all here:

          Let's see if I can at least get you as far as getting the Hijack This logs posted (I'm at least familiar enough with Hijack This to do that much).

          1) Run Hijack This again.  There should be an icon on your Desktop.  If not, click Start -> All Programs -> HijackThis -> HijackThis.

          2) On the window that pops up, click "Do a system scan and save a logfile"  See the picture attached to my post for more info.

          3) Once Hijack This is done doing its thing, the log file will pop up.  It'll be called "hijackthis.log - Notepad"

          4) Click File -> Save As...

          5) Click "Desktop" on the left side of the "Save As" window.

          6) Click "Save."

          7) Reply to this topic.

          8) Click "Additional Options" so you can see "Attach"

          9) Click the "Browse" button next to "Attach"

          10 (sorry, I tried to make this shorter... :(  ) ) Click "Desktop" on the left side of the File Upload window.

          11) Double-click "hijackthis.log".  This was the file you saved earlier in Steps 4, 5, and 6.

          12) Click "Post."

          Part of the problem is most people don't generally deal with computer problems. So for most they think that close enough is good enough.

          And for Malwarebytes' AntiMalware:

          • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
          • Be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
          • If you encounter any problems while downloading the updates, manually download them from here and just double-click on mbam-rules.exe to install.
          • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
          • Once the program has loaded, select Perform Quick Scan, then click Scan.
          • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
          • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
          • When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Save it to a convenient location like the Desktop.
          • The log is also automatically saved and can be viewed later by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
          • Copy and Paste the contents of the report in your reply.
          • Exit MBAM.

            Ahhhhh!  I think I did it. (No applause icon, huh?) LOL!  ;D

            I believe I left off on number 4 on the REMOVE MALWARE guide.

            Ok, what's next?

            We need a MalwareBytes' log and then one of our Malware Specialists will go from there. ;)

              As soon as I click on the mbam-setup.exe link, I see RUN & SAVE. Which one should I choose?  Does SAVE always mean INSTALL?


              Thanks again!!

              Save just saves the installer file to the computer, usually on the Desktop. Click RUN.

                Carbon.... You are great!  :-*  Thanks for the easy steps.

                Ok, I have to wait now 'till it is looked over and then I will get another message telling me how to proceed, right? Again, I left off at #4 on that original MALEWARE removal guide....if that tells you anything.

                More Big Kisses!  :-* :-* :-*

                Thanks!
