Firefox is working now, I had to move back to VA and I don't have a steady internet connection for the laptop in question so it may be a couple days before I can get to downloading the updates and fixes.

Hi xRavageDx,

How are things going?

[xRavageDx]

Should be able to get it to the local spot for wi-fi in the next couple of days when I go out job hunting. I wound up in SW Va where the internet is a new thing apparently... The connection I'm on now is slower than dial up, it's amazing.

Hi xRavageDx ,

It has been more than 5 days since your last reply. I know you are having some problems getting a good connection, but it is taking too long. If you are unable to follow the topic and reply within 3 days, I suggest we close this topic first. When you have the free time and good internet connection, you may start a new topic to check how is the computer is doing. What do you say?

Due to lack of response this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Infected? Virus, malware, adware, ransomware, oh my! forum, include a fresh FRST log, and wait for a new helper.
