Hello and welcome to Malware Removal Forums

To make cleaning this machine easier:-
  • Continue to respond to this thread until I give you the All Clean!

  • Please follow all instructions in the order posted.
  • If you have any questions or do not understand instructions, please ask before continuing.

Due to a lack of response, this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Malware Removal forum, include a fresh HijackThis log, and wait for a new helper.
