Hello all, I am working on a neighbor’s computer. I think that the unit is pretty clean but I’m troubled by the fact that there is a Bit torrent program on it. He received the computer recently from a trade–work (house painting) for the computer. This is the first unit that I have worked on with a SSD drive. I also have seen a few toolbars on the unit as well and although they look to be legitamate that tells me that the former owner was not as careful as he could have been.
[*]Then click the Run Fix button at the top
[*]Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
[*]Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.
There is a first time for everything and obviously I have too much on my mind. I added Avast to his system and the first scan picked up three instances of viruses. These scans were run on July 16. One was during a regular scan and the others during a boot level scan, which Avast itself strongly recommended: A0060540.EXE, unp11082972.tmp & regdrv.exe The threats were all “Win32:Malware-gen.” I deleted all three and have not had any alerts regarding viruses since: I forgot that I shouldn’t run any scans and ran a quick Avast scan this morning.
I take seriously the service that your team provides. Therefore, again, please accept my apologies for the oversight.
Would you like me to complete your latest directions or would this information change the course that you would like me to follow?
Nope, no other issues. Your help is/was greatly appreciated. BTW, “reckon,” I thought you were from England. I’m a Southerner in the States. I use the term all the time. Is the term used in England by the Brits or are you a Southern transplant?
