Thanks!

You have a ton of PUP that need removal…

Selecting all PUP http://blog.malwarebytes.org/news/2013/09/selecting-all-pups/

Could you open the OTL log please and select File … save as…
Then for the format type select ANSI
Then re-attach the logs

Here we go for ANSI formatted OTL and Extras logs

Thanks!
Bob

Hi essexboy,
After this process, the system is behaving stable and reliable.
Before, when I ran some applications and tried to add new entries, it used give me error message and crash. Now, the new entries are added without a glitch.
Thanks for all your help here in this forum!

Bob

In that case methinks I will send you on your merry way :slight_smile:

Subject to no further problems :slight_smile:

I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems

Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean :thumbsup:

A good workman always cleans up after himself so…The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points:

Download and run Delfix

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/delfix.JPG

: Keep Java Updated :

WARNING: Java is the #1 exploited program at this time. The Department of Homeland Security recommends that computer users disable Java
See this article and this article.
I would recommend that you completely uninstall Java unless you need it to run an important software.
In that instance I would recommend that you disable Java in your browsers until you need it for that software and then enable it. (See How to diasble Java in your web browser and How to unplug Java from the browser)

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:

CryptoPrevent install this programme to lock down and prevent crypto ransome ware

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/CryptoPrevent.JPG

Malwarebytes.

Update and run weekly to keep your system clean

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this little guide Best security practices Keep safe :wave:

Thanks essexboy for the extended guilines to keep my system clean.
I’ve run the delfix and removed all your disinfection tools.
Now I’ve also installed the Cryptoprevent too. Learning about how to disable the Java.
Thanks again for your help!
Regards,
Bob

My pleasure :slight_smile:
