Run Combofix:
You may be asked to install or update the
Recovery Console (Win XP Only) if this happens please allow it to do so (you will need to be connected to the internet for this)
Before you run Combofix I will need you to turn off any security software you have running, If you do not know how to do this you can find out

Combofix may need to reboot your computer more than once to do its job this is normal.
You can download Combofix from one of these links.
1. Close any open browsers or any other programs that are open.
2.
Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
Double click on
combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished, it will produce a report for you.
Note 1: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall
Note 2: If you recieve an error "Illegal operation attempted on a registery key that has been marked for deletion." Please restart the computer
"information and logs"
In your next post I need the following
- Log from Combofix
- let me know of any problems you may have had
- How is the computer doing now?
