Hi OceanBlue1213,

The problems you are still experiencing are not coming from malware as all of your latest logs appear to be clean.
As this is a dedicated Malware Removal site I think those issues are best left to experts elsewhere..
Here are some excellent Tech sites (in no particular order) that may be able to help with these problems:



If the helper at the forum you chose mentions malware, feel free to link them to this topic.
So as I said above your logs are clean, I hope you can resolve your other problem with the links that I provided.

I leave with some clean-up steps and some advice.

OTL-Cleanup
You should still have this on your desktop, if so, please ignore the download instructions.
Please download OTL Save it to your Desktop.

  • Double click on OTL.exe to run it.
  • Press the CleanUp button.
  • When done, you will be prompted to reboot your system to finish file removal... please select OK to reboot your computer.


If you did not reboot your computer normally, please do so now, before continuing.

Update your Antivirus programs and other programs regularly. This is one good way to avoid new threats. The following websites can be used to check if you need any update.
Secunia Personal Software Inspector
F-secure Health Check
FileHippo.com Update Checker - © Copyright FileHippo.com

Some free programs that can improve your computer security:
Malwarebytes Anti-malware
This is a great anti-malware application that can remove a good percentage of infections. You should run a scan with it at least once week, after you download the latest updates.

Thanks nunped.

I'll try and see if one of the people at Tech Support Forums can help out with this, if it's not seemingly malware related. Thank you for your look into my logs and your advice - even though it doesn't seem to be a malware issue, thank you and I wish you the best as you continue your studies to help fight malware. We need more people like yourself willing to step up to the task - keep at it :) :salute:

Best,
