not correct.....the log is full AdwCleaner does not detect any malware, it removes browser/toolbar crap and your log is full of it. ;)

Could you post a screenshot of the Avast alert please

Also could you delete the shortcuts for IE and FF from the desktop and quicklaunch bar

RE: Screenshot – The machine is no longer producing ‘malicious url’ pop-ups via Avast!

I ran the fix in OTL, rebooted, then ran a full scan with OTL using the same custom scan settings as the first time. The log is attached ( OTL.txt ). I realize now I didn’t run the quick scan as you requested… I’ve been juggling cleaning this PC up with my normal workload.

Perhaps the malware has been eliminated? I hope so.

That’s good, it must have been in the shortcuts as I thought

Use the computer as normal and if all is well tomorrow let me know and I will tidy up
