Slow performance possibly from Online Form Finder

3 min read

This thread's last reply is from July 18, 2018, 4:33 AM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

About a week ago I downloaded Online Form Finder only to find that it has created my laptop to perform functions very slowly. I have used Malwarebytes which initially detected some threats which it removed. It now does not detect any threats however my system is running very slowly.

FRST.txt and Addition.txt files attached.
Hello al_wizz,

My apologies for the delay in getting to your topic. If you still need help, please post a frest set of FRST logs..

  • Right-click on FRST64.exe and select Run as administrator.
  • The tool might update. Please allow it to do so.
  • Select Scan.
  • When the scan is over two windows will open, FRST.txt and Addition.txt.
  • Please post the contents of both logs in your next reply.


If you don't require help anymore, I would be grateful if you could let me know, so that I can close this topic.

Hi both logs are attached as they were too big to paste.

Hello al_wizz,

Welcome to Malware Removal! My name is mAL_rEm018, but feel free to call me mAL. I will be helping you with your malware related problems :)


Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.


Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.

To make sure everything goes smoothly, I would like you to observe the following rules:
  • You must have Administrator rights, permissions for this computer.
  • Please reply to this thread. Do not start another topic.
  • Perform all actions in the order given.
  • If you don't know, stop and ask!
  • DO NOT run any other fix or removal tools unless instructed to do so!
  • Don't attempt to install any new software (other than those I ask you to) until your computer is clean.
  • DO NOT post for help at any other forum. Applying fixes from multiple help sites can cause problems.
  • I advise you to print the instructions if possible, since your internet connection might not be available during some of the fixes.
  • Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear, therefore stick with this topic until I give you the "all clear".


I am currently reviewing your logs and will return as soon as possible, with additional instructions. In the meantime I would like you to read and get acquainted with the following topic: HOW TO GET HELP IN THIS FORUM - everyone must read this, where the conditions for receiving help here are explained.
Hello al_wizz,

  • In the File name: box, please write MBAM Log and save it to your desktop.
  • Once the process is over, a message will appear stating that the file has been successfully exported. Click OK.
