If you get a message when trying to remove a program please post it in your next reply.

Run HijackThis and click on Open the Misc Tools section.
In the next window, click on Open Uninstall Manager...
In the final window, click on Save list... and save it to your Desktop.
Copy and paste this file: uninstall_list.txt into your next reply.

Third party programs if not up to date can be the cause infiltration of an infection.

Please run this security check for my review.

Download Security Check by screen317 from here.
  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
  • A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.
