Hi all, can You help with this. The comp was playing up so I done a scan with avast. nothing there. site still didn’t play well, So I done a boot-time scan. took a while, but nothing come up. So I thought try malwarebytes. I clicked it to up-date, it said I need a new version. I thought I seen 1.62.0.1400 , not sure now it might have had 1400 in the old one. anyway, I was going to do a clean install. delete from add/remove progs. run atf re-boot. but soon as I deleted malawarebytes. avast pop up said
“file name NAN/rootkit”
“SVC:mbam rootkit” It ddidn’t have the quotes. and recommended to delete, so I did and carried on with getting the new malwarebytes. and re-booted
any ideas please. thanks In advance. there isn’t anything in the chest
follow the guide and attach (not copy and paste) logs from malwarebytes / OTL / aswMBR

I hope I done it right.
