I apologize in advance for the complicated situation to follow:

I was (and am) having problems with database not updating.

I was asked to do the diagnostic logs and replied with them in late April, but I misunderstood instructions and didn't place in right forum.

Anyhow Ron Lewis was kind enough to reply that it appeared I had an infected computer and suggested posting here for help.

Also, I was asked to run Rkill, ERUNT and Rogue killer and post appropriate files from all of this.

 

I was away for several weeks but now have been able to run all of the requested programs and am attaching the resultant files (except Additions.txt, which was run in April (1st time program run and did not run this time as it was second use.)

 

I would very much appreciate any thoughts/help anyone can provided in looking at my computer reports. Thanks and have a great holiday.

We need to run an online AV scan to ensure there are no remnants of any infection left on your system that may have been missed. This scan is very thorough and well worth running, it can take several hours please be patient and let it complete:

 

Run Eset Online Scanner

 

**Note** You will need to use Internet explorer for this scan - Vista and Windows 7/8 right click on IE shortcut and run as admin

 

Go to Eset web page http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ to run an online scan from ESET.

 


Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan
click on the Run ESET Online Scanner button
Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
Click Start
When asked, allow the add/on to be installed
Click Start
Make sure that the option "Remove found threats"  is UNticked
Click on Advanced Settings, ensure the options
Scan for potentially unwanted applications, Scan for potentially unsafe applications, and Enable Anti-Stealth Technology are ticked.
Click Scan
wait for the virus definitions to be downloaded
Wait for the scan to finish

 

When the scan is complete

 


If no threats were found
put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
close program
report to me that nothing was found

 

If threats were found

 


click on "list of threats found"
click on "export to text file" and save it as ESET SCAN and save to the desktop
Click on back
put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
click on finish

 

close program

 

Copy and paste the report in next reply.

 

Next,

 

Download Security Check by screen317 from either of the following:

http://screen317.spywareinfoforum.org/SecurityCheck.exe or http://screen317.changelog.fr/SecurityCheck.exe

Save it to your Desktop. (If your security alerts either accept the alert, or turn the security off while Secuirity Check runs)

Double click SecurityCheck.exe (Vista or Windows 7/8 users right click and select "Run as Administrator") and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box. Press any key when asked.

A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

If Security Check will not run or you get an alert saying it is not supported, Re-boot your PC then try again...

 

Let me see those logs, also give an update on any remaining issues or concerns...

OK I did as requested. I turned off Malwarebytes and Windows essentials

 

Ran Eset and Eset scan showed 11 threats.

 

SecruityCheck ran and the first message was indeed unsupported. I rebooted PC and, on startup, two devices were not installed successfully per note at bottom right - interestingly keyboard then was frozen. I rebooted and then re-ran SecurityScan with the results in the checkup file. I believe Malwarebytes and Windows essentials are set to run at startup.

 

Thanks yet again.

If the machine reboots, the Results log can be found here:

Where mmddyyyy_hhmmss is the date of the tool run.

 

Next,

 

Adobe Reader is outdated...

Visit http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/otherversions/ and download the latest version of Acrobat Reader

 

Step 1 - Select your Operating System.

Step 2 - Select your Langauge.

Step 3 - Select latest version.

 

Untick the option for any security scanner or toolbar if offered.

 

Download and install.

 

Having the latest updates ensures there are no security vulnerabilities in your system.

 

Next,

 

Go here http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ and have Adobe Flashplayer checked. Accept new version if required.

There maybe an offer of Google Chrome etc, untick those options if offered...

 

Let me see those logs, if no remaining issues or concerns run the following to clean up....

 

Download "Delfix by Xplode" and save it to your desktop.

 

"Delfix link mirror"

 

Double Click to start the program. If you are using Vista or higher, please right-click and choose run as administrator

 

Make Sure the following items are checked:

 


    Activate UAC
    Remove disinfection tools
    Create registry backup
    Purge System Restore
    Reset system settings

 

Now click on "Run" and wait patiently until the tool has completed.

 

The tool will create a log when it has completed. We don't need you to post this.

 

Part of the routine will be to create a registry back up with ERUNT,  the back up will be created here:

 

C:\Windows\ERUNT

 

When all is known to be well with your system you can delete that back up folder if you consider it as not needed...

 

Kevin..
