Thank you.
Attach your logs. (OTL and aswMBR…!!)
Instructions: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0
Here’s the OTL log. I’m having problems cause avast is not letting me download aswMBR. Any suggestions?
Here’s the aswMBR file. Thank you for your help again.
Hi I have changed the initial analysis programme due to forum formatting problems
Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.
[*]Right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
[*]Select additions at the bottom
[*]Press Scan button.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/frst.JPG
[*]It will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from.
[*]Please attach both logs generated.
Files from FRST
CAUTION : This fix is only valid for this specific machine, using it on another may break your computer
Download the attached Fixlist.txt to the same location as FRST
Run FRST and press Fix
On completion a log will be generated please post that
Also let me know if the alerts have ceased
OK here’s tyhe log after running the FRST.
It looks like the alerts have ceased, for now.
I’ll post in a few hours just to confirm this.
Let me know and I will tidy up when you are happy
Ok, it’s been 24 hours and everything seems to be ok.
Thank you so much!
In that case methinks I will send you on your merry way
Subject to no further problems
I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems
Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean
A good workman always cleans up after himself so…The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points:
Download and run Delfix

: Keep Java Updated :
WARNING: Java is the #1 exploited program at this time. The Department of Homeland Security recommends that computer users disable Java
See this article
I would recommend that you completely uninstall Java unless you need it to run an important software.
In that instance I would recommend that you disable Java in your browsers until you need it for that software and then enable it. (See How to diasble Java in your web browser and How to unplug Java from the browser)
Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:
CryptoPrevent install this programme to lock down and prevent crypto ransome ware

Update and run weekly to keep your system clean
It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.
To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this little guide Best security practices Keep safe
Will do.
Thank you again for your help.
My pleasure
