blackled/info, reddie net in svchost.exe

system · 2015-05-01T08:57:35.000Z

Hello
After the success (your success) cleaning my nephews laptop his sisters has the same problem, many PUP’s removed using Malwarebytes but the blackled warnings are now popping up. We have had a good conversation about internet security so hopefully this will be the last of it.

I have attached the scan logs for the experts perusal.
Thank you in anticipation.

Thanks for the speedy response, here is the scan log. The laptop required a reboot but the blackled alerts are still appearing although not so many… about 5 as opposed to 14 before.

Just ran the fixlist and all is now peaceful with the demanding laptop, the alerts have ceased. Thank you so much.

Prior to running it I had a nosey through frst.txt trying to get a good idea of what might be included in a possible list. Some lines I spotted, others not. I will have to learn a lot more about this program. Would you say that GeeksToGo would be a good place to start?

Once again some great help available here. Most grateful.
