I’ve tried some resources to clear this up with no luck. Since I ran MBAM, FRST and aswMBR to get the logs, I haven’t seen the pop up. But then I’m just now back on line so, I’m not sure where it stands.
Attaching logs and hopefully it will make some sense, Any help is sincerely appreciated. Thanks!
It would seems that this is not a home computer, but rather a some kind of business computer. As additional, user of this PC (you?) has a very bad habit of computer usage.
I was thinking whether to continue or not and in this case I’ll make an exception as it would seems that you have a brand new malware and I would like to investigate.

2. Save notepad as fixlist.txt to your Desktop. NOTE: => It’s important that both files, FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.
3. Run FRST/FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait. If the tool needed a restart please make sure you let the system to restart normally and let the tool completes its run after restart.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please attach it to your reply. Note: If the tool warned you about the outdated version please download and run the updated version.
LOL no, its not a business PC. I have a couple of hobby blog sites and it is a shared machine. So it probably does look odd.
Fixlog is attached. From what I can tell, it looks good. Hope the experience helps get a handle on this stupid little trick so we can prevent others from “catching” it. Thank you for your help.
