Hi BigmaccyD,
How’s the computer? Is Avast still giving warnings?

The log shows multiple antivirus programs. There are also traces of AVG. This will not give you more protection but could actually results in less due to conflicts.
Please uninstall Lavasoft and AVG.
Next
[*]Double click on OTL.exe to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
[*]When the window appears, underneath Output at the top change it to Minimal Output
[*]unCheck the boxes beside LOP Check and Purity Check.
[*]In the window under Custom Scans/Fixes copy and paste the following
[B]
netsvcs
/md5start
ca-messagequeuing.dll
consrv.dll
/md5stop
[/B]
[*]Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
When the scan completes, it will a two notepad windows, OTL.Txt no Extras.Txt this time.
heya oldman, yeah the virus warnings have passed. although when i ran combofix to get the log i had to shut down the avast shields and combofix had to remove consrv.dll and sys64 folder. ?
i have uninstalled lavasoft at your request as for avg they must be remnants of a past install as i dont have it on my system.
hese is the otl.log.
thanks for all the help so far you guys are awesome

Hi
No need to post the MBAM log if it’s clean.
Let’s give the AVG Removal Tool a try. Download it from HERE and save it to your desktop.
double click it and follow the prompts.
Rerun the OTL fix, I removed the line OTL seems to be having problems with.

Hi BigmaccyD,
Everything looks pretty good.
One more scan to check for stragglers.
As a Vista/Win7 user you will need to right click your browser icon and select “Run as Administrator” in order to run this scan.
[]Do not use this instance of your browser for anything besides doing this scan
[]When the scan is complete and the results saved, close that instance of your browser
[*]Open a new one the usual way and post the results in this topic.
*Note
It is recommended to disable onboard antivirus program and antispyware programs while performing scans so there are no conflicts and it will speed up scan time.
Please don’t go surfing while your resident protection is disabled!
Once the scan is finished remember to re-enable your antivirus along with your antispyware programs.
Go here to run an online scannner from
ESET
(Note: You can use Internet Explorer or FireFox for this scan. If you use FireFox you will be asked to install an additional component. Please allow this.)
[*]Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
[*]Click Start
[*]When asked, allow the activex control to install
[*]Disable your Antivirus software. You can usually do this with its Notfication Tray icon near the clock
[*]Click Start
[*]Make sure that the option “Remove found threats” is Unchecked, and the option “Scan unwanted applications” is Checked.
[*]Click Scan.
[*]Wait for the scan to finish.
[*]When the scan completes, click List of found threats
[*]click Export to Text file and save the file to your desktop using a unique name, such as ESETScan.
[*]Include the contents of this report in your next reply
Note - when ESET doesn’t find any threats, no report will be created.
[*]Push the back button.
[*]Push Finish
[*]Re-enable your Antivirus software.
ran esnet online scan and it came back clean bill of health
Hi BigmaccyD,
One little fix to fix an error in the script I had you run.
Next, Right click on OTL.exe and chose Run as Administrator to run it
[*]Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
[*]Do Not copy the word CODE
[*]please note the fix starts with the :
:Services
:Commands
[resethosts]
[createrestorepoint]
Then click the Run Fix button at the top
[*]Let the program run unhindered
[*]Please save the resulting log to be posted in your next reply.
Please post the OTL fix log
One more OTL log to see if anything is left. We’ll clean up the tools and send you on your way after you post back.
Open OTL if it’s not still open and click the Quick Scan button.
Please post back with both OTL logs.
Thanks

Hi BigmaccyD,
Let’s try it this way. Regardless of the outcome of the fix please obtain a new OTL scan log after you run the fix.
