Hi

Again, sorry for the delay. I see Combofix did find something and removed it. Hows it running now?
No problem.It's running ok.Just the same as before really.What do you make of that stuff spybot found.Did you have a look at the screencap?What was it combofix found?Thankyou.
Hi

Combofix found a file related to a trojan.

Im still not sure what Spybot found exactly. If you had been fully infected with all of those you would have found yourself inundated with popups and redirects. It may have been cookies wrongly flagged by Spybot.

Time for some housekeeping
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the x and the /u, it needs to be there.




Now make sure MBAM is up to date and run a Quick Scan and post the new report along with a new HIjackThis log please.
Hi Scotty.The logs are below.When I uninstalled combofix comodo boclean said there was a trojan activity?(Maybe it thought combofix was a trojan?)Also I have a folder named cmdcons on my c drive.Can I remove this?When I became infected I cancelled all my online accounts like paypal etc.Is it safe to re open these accounts again?

Hi Scotty,there's definitely something funny going on here.My spywareblaster had been disabled again and I had to re enable all protection.I scanned with spybot and it found a few red entries(Including smitfraud)and when I clicked on the + box it showed as being registry changes.I've attached a screencap of what spybot found this time.

Attachments:
