Hello bmwm3240,

Welcome to Malware Removal. I am Jack&Jill, and I will be helping you out.

Before we go further, there are a few things that I would like to make clear so that we are share the same understanding.
  • Please observe and follow these Forum Rules and HOW TO GET HELP AT THIS FORUM (YOU MUST READ THIS).
  • It will take some time for me to go through your logs, so please be patient with me.
  • Backing up important data is a good idea as malware removal is a hazardous undertaking. Please do so if you haven't already.
  • Any advice is for your computer only and is taken at your own risk. Fixes sometimes will cause unexpected results, but I will do my best to assist you.
  • Reply and keep only to this thread. If you have the same topic elsewhere, please inform me or the other forum so that either can be closed.
  • If you have any doubts or problems during the fix, please stop and ask.
  • If you need to be away for a while during the fix, please let me know.
  • Lack of malware symptoms does not mean your computer is clean. Stick to this topic until I give the All Clear.
  • Do not use or run any tools without supervision as they may cause more harm if improperly used.
  • Refrain from installing any new programs except those that I request during the fix to prevent interference to my diagnosis of the problem.
  • Please read the instructions carefully and follow them closely, in the order they are presented to you.
  • All the tools that I will ask you to download and use are safe. Please allow if prompted by any of your security softwares.
  • If you do not reply within 3 days, this topic will be closed.


If you are agreeable to the above, then everything should go smoothly :) . We may begin.
I am working on your log now and will be back the soonest.

At the mean time, please post an Uninstall list
  • Open HijackThis.
  • Go to Open the Misc Tools section by clicking on the box.
  • Under the Systems tools, look for Open Uninstall Manager and click on it.
  • Click Save list... and save the text file in a convenient location.
  • Copy and paste the Uninstall list contents in your reply.


Also, please describe in details what problems you are facing (if you haven't yet).
