I just realized that I never put the items in quarantine before doing the scans? Was I supposed to?

I was able to do MBAM and OTL I did the full scan MBAM

but … the link to aswMBR.exe will not work - Chrome says web page not available and will not refresh

also FYI - today when I used CNET Downloads that Conduit installed even though I declined all CNET add-ons
It did hijack my home page in browsers - I googled how to get rid of and I learned to UNINSTALL which I did - I also attempted to remove it from Firefox numerous times - but it persists

I do not want to use Firefox with that Conduit thing active and IE does not work at all though Conduit is listed on there a;so

Chrome does not list it at all as an extension

also note …after MBAM restart see the error message that came up (see attched screen shot)
