The systemlook log is extremely long. Is it possible for me to attach the file here rather than pasting it in sections?

Sure, no problem.

To attach a file, open the topic reply window, scroll down and below the input field you'll find a Browse button. Browse to the file you want to attach, then hit the add the file button. Click Submit and the file should be attached to your next post.

It says "The file is too big, maximum allowed size is 256 KiB".
The log is really big because I think it made note of every file with "a2" in the name. Can I email it to you?

Not possible.

How big is the file ?

5.54 mb, which is weird because it's just a notepad file.

OK, rather than post a 5M file, lets try refining the search and see if it gives us something more manageable to work with.

• Double-click SystemLook.exe to run it.
• Copy the content of the following codebox into the main textfield:

:Filefind

emsisoft

a2util

a2dda

a2injectiondriver

a2antimalware

a2acc



:Folderfind

emsisoft

a2util

a2dda

a2injectiondriver

a2antimalware

a2acc



:Regfind

emsisoft

a2util

a2dda

a2injectiondriver

a2antimalware

a2acc

• Click the Look button to start the scan.
• When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.

Note: The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt

• Click the Run Fix button.
• OTL will now process the instructions.
• When finished a box will open asking you to open the fix log, click OK.
• The fix log will open.
• Copy/Paste the log in your next reply please.

Note: If necessary, OTL may re-boot your computer, or request that you do so, if it does, re-boot your computer. A log will be produced upon re-boot.

If your computer is not now running the way you expect it to, can you explain to me in what way it is acting differently,

This fix isn't going to delete WinPatrol is it?

No, it's just going to delete a couple of key values for emsisoft that are in the WinPatrol keys, that way they won't show up in WinPatrol.

I did that but it says "otl is not responding" and it has this message
