iswizard (wuaudit.exe)

Hi, I’m having trouble with this virus on my PC, avast! detects the virus but then it simply appears back again in the directory

C:\Users\omarhesham\AppData\Local\Temp\iswizard

I realise there is already a post about this problem on the front page however I do not want to clog that post with my results because the issues might not stem from the same source

I have followed the steps in the sticky and have attached all relevant logfiles except for aswMBR which I am running at the moment

your AdwCleaner log say search … did you not click delete when run it?

removal experts are notified…

Oops, you’re right I forgot to click delete! I believe this is the logfile you are looking for

Edit: final logfile attached

Check USB storage devices / removable drives

I recommended you to keep Malwarebytes and to use MCShield if you will.
You may download MCShield from one of the following links:

MyCity - Official download link
Softpedija - Mirror download link

It will prevent infection by computer via USB flash drive, mobile phone or any other memory card.
And not only will prevent infection, but it will immediately clean flash drive, memory card or external HDD.
