Hello e-olguin,

I am SifuMike and I will be helping you. :)

Before we start, you need to realise that you are missing one important program on that computer: An antivirus.

Spyware Terminator is a spyware remover not an antivirus.


This is somewhat suicidal in today's digital world :!:

You need to install an antivirus program as soon as you can and run a complete scan of the computer.

I recommend you download and run the free
AntiVir or
AVG antivirus or
Avast

Never install more than one antivirus scanner or firewall on your system! Several together can give you problems and decrease the reliability of it seriously!




Disable your antivirus program and go here http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html and run an online scan with BitDefender (you will need to use Internet Explorer for this scan). When the ActiveX Control has loaded, click on "Click here to scan" and grab a coffee. :)

When BitDefender completes the scan, select the "Detected Problems" tab.
Click on "Click here to export scan".
Save the file as an HTML to your Desktop.
Then click on the saved file and allow it to open with your browser.
Go to Edit - Select All then copy/paste that log back here.
Post the BitDefender log.

*****************
