  1. I did not disable genie or netgear because they are already blocked by windows defender as I explained and posted the screen grabs.

    Should I hold on to roguekiller?

    My restarts are still being prevented by Malwarebytes tray application (32 bit)

    i will follow the link for clearing cookies. At last start-up I got a different google asking for which user

     

  2. one other issue I had last night and don't know if it is related was that I got the notice that a program was running when I tried to shut down.On the task manager I found the Malwarebytes tray application 32 bit. I closed it and went to shutdown again and had another program running. Nothing showed on the task manager but the symbol shown with the message was a black square with a hand and a finger on the black square. I figure that was a touchpad symbol

     

  3. Is the genietimeline gone now or do I need to reinstall to fix it? The problem that persists has to do somehow with the firestick. Even when not using it seems to eat up all the bandwidth. I have to disable it with nighthawk or netgear genie in order to watch netflix. I had other pop-ups that came up after the last fix that I posted as screen grabs because I did not know that would impact the fix or if they called out the problem. The genie was part of that. I also had the same pop-ups related to the name of this post but could not get a screen grab

     

  4. The dates shown as far as the file shows have been updating. I take than when I open the program that there will be a version I can check? But, when I open the program it tells me that it is updating. When ready I hit fix. A dialogue box informs me that the fixlog cannot be found . This evening I will try to find the may6 version and delete everything else

  5. Well pop-ups and slow speed today. Pop-ups not as bad but, I said no a few times and they stopped. I have one device that I thought was my firestick but didn't know how to check the mAC address. I had it blocked in order to get more speed. I just found it unblocked and details showed it as a windows PC. I also found that I had forgotten to log out of the router. I changed the log-in password and when everything came back(I didn't have to log in with anything)it was back to "Amazon" and blocked as before.

  6. Yes it appears so. Speed has returned. No pop-ups. Thank you very much

    I do have a question. When all this was going on I had identified most of the MAC addresses that were shown on the router genie map. I had mis identified one address as my laptop while hardwired to the router. Does a laptop have more than one mac address? I found my address for Wifi which I precviously thought was a hacker but have not found the address that I had thought was me.
