Log is attached. Oh man that does not look pretty...

Both Firefox and IE have been reset. Should I test to see if problem still persist?

can if you like

 

I see in another thread this,

 

Guys, let's remember to keep the thread on topic...this user needs help and that is the purpose of the Community. 

 

Thank you!  (forum mod)

 

So everyone can do malware here.  That is fine. users don't listen, or people jump in know knowing what they are doing is allowed

 

That being the case, this forum is too dangerous for systems with malware on, so I am finished for now, please go to a protected forum, like Bleeping Computer's Malware Removal boards. It is safer for you, as the likes of ESET and other steps have not been done.

 

The Forum is not geared for this.

 

Good Luck
