Hello and sorry about the delay,

Welcome to the Malware Removal Forums! My name is Adam and I will be assisting you with getting the malware off of your computer. Please observe the following points before we start:

1. If at any point you don't understand something, please let me know and I will be glad to expain or go more into depth for you.
2. Please remember, I am a volunteer and I have a personal life. I go to school full time, have a part time job, and I do sports. A lot of this takes a lot of time.
3. Please keep all of your replys in this topic/thread and do not make a new topic/thread, thanks!
4. Please stick with this, don't stop responding because the symptoms are gone, the infection could still be there. Keep replying to my posts until I give you the All Clean message.
5. If you don't reply within three days after my last instructions this topic will be closed. If you will not be able to reply within three days please tell me so the topic will not be closed.
6. Please do not run other tools to remove the malware unless I ask you to until I give you the all clean. They will just mess up my fixes and make things more complicated, not fix the problem.
