Hello.
I am getting blocked “outbounds” multiple times per minute by both Avast and MBAM.
I read the forum that others were having similar problem. I read how to capture and upload logs so I hope I have done correctly, as I am a newbie.
MBAM and FRST logs attached.
I hope someone can assist me. Thanks in advance.
Ben

Essexboy, thank you for your assistance, it is greatly appreciated!
I have attached the fixlog here. I will run the AdwCleaner now as you suggested.
Ben
Here are the logs from AdwCleaner as requested.
Cheers,
Ben
Signs are good, no pop-ups from Avast-Pro Antivirus or MBAM flagging outbound attempts by URL:Mal. I do not have the expertise to interpret the logs though. Please let me know what you find in the logs.
Regards,
Ben
If all is well tomorrow let me know and I will tidy up

Thanks Essexboy, all seems back to normal!
It really is a weight off my mind to know that there are those like yourself volunteering to assist us.
If I can buy you a pint, or donate somewhere to keep this forum going, please let me know the specifics.
Best wishes,
BW
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
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/CryptoPrevent.JPG
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 
Fantastic!! Great help, perfect easy instructions, and desired outcome achieved!
Thank you essexboy! and thank you Avast for hosting this forum.
Clean for over 2 weeks now.
