Hello gruckee,

Welcome to the forum!

My name is pgmigg and I'll be helping you with any malware problems.

Currently I am working under the guidance of the MRU teachers and everything I post to you, must first be approved by them.
This additional review process can add some extra time to my responses, but hopefully not too much.

Before we begin, please read and follow these important guidelines, so things will proceed smoothly.
  1. The instructions being given are for YOUR computer and system only!
    Using these instructions on a different computer can cause damage to that computer and possibly render it inoperable!
  2. You must have Administrator rights, permissions for this computer.
  3. DO NOT run any other fix or removal tools unless instructed to do so!
  4. DO NOT install any other software (or hardware) during the cleaning process. This adds more items to be researched.
  5. Only post your problem at (1) one help site. Applying fixes from multiple help sites can cause problems.
  6. Print each set of instructions if possible - your Internet connection will not be available during some fix processes.
  7. Only reply to this thread, do not start another one. Please, continue responding, until I give you the "All Clean"


I am currently reviewing your log and will return, as soon as possible, with additional instructions. In the meantime...
Please take time to read the Malware Removal Forum Guidelines and Rules where the conditions for receiving help at this forum are explained.

Please read all instructions carefully before executing and perform the steps, in the order given.
lf, you have any questions or problems, executing these instructions, <<STOP>> do not proceed, post back with the question or problem.

Hello gruckee,
battled a lot of problems with my limited knowledge - cleaned up a lot of stuff (meaning screwed up some stuff..?)

Could you please explain in details what was exactly done so far?
Which scans did you run?
What were removed and/or uninstalled?
Which symptoms of wrong behavior did you see before starting your battle?

Step 1.
RSIT (Random's System Information Tool)
Please download RSIT by random/random... save it to your desktop.
  1. Double click on RSIT.exe to run it.
  2. Read the disclaimer and click on Continue.
  3. RSIT will start running. When done... 2 logs files will be produced.
    The first one, log.txt, <<will be maximized and the second one, info.txt, <<will be minimized.
  4. Please post both log.txt and info.txt file contents in your next reply.

(These logs can be lengthy, so post 1 log per reply please.)

Please include in your next reply:
  1. Answers for my questions about what were done before;
  2. Do you have any problems executing the instructions?
  3. Contents of log.txt;
  4. Contents of info.txt.


Thanks,
pgmigg
