Yesterday MalwareBytes removal got rid of at least part of it but when I am on sites I keep getting the HTTP404 error as I navigate thru the sites. Refreshing several times fixes the problem but I'm wondering if part of the SecurityTool issue is still playing havoc with my system? CCleaner, Microsoft Security Essentials, and Windows Defender programs are not finding anything wrong as I have green lights on all.

Have you checked Event Viewer for errors...which might shed some light?

I don't know what to make of that. Success Audit - An audited security access attempt that succeeds. For example, a user's successful attempt to log on the system will be logged as a Success Audit event. Failure Audit – An audited security access attempt that fails. For example, if a user tries to access a network drive and fails, the attempt will be logged as a Failure Audit event. Event ID 11920 for MSI Installer...failure of a service/program. Double-click one of those and post the detail. Event ID 7 for disk...double-click one and post detail here. Event ID 7001 for Service Control Manager, click latest and post detail here.

An application was listed as an exception when the Windows Firewall started. Policy origin: Local Policy Profile used: Standard Name: AOL TopSpeed Path: C:\Program Files\Common Files\aol\TopSpeed\3.0\aoltpsd3.exe State: Disabled Scope: All subnets Weird thing (to me) is that I haven't had AOL for a few years.

Reading thru different forums I saw that you all normally want it so I've attached both. Also running a "rootrepeal" although when it opened it did say there was a PE error btw. Will upload that after it runs though. Attached File(s) DDS.txt ( 12.07k ) Number of downloads: 11 Attach.txt ( 17.43k ) Number of downloads: 10

Is this a leftover issue from the security and rogue search issues that I started with or something new?
