My machine has been acting terribly slow lately. I did a full scan with malwarebytes and came up with 11 infections. I removed those and so no significant change. I’ve included the suggested scans, however, while scanning with aswmbr, an error popped up and said, “avast antirootkit has encountered an error and needs to close…” so the aswmbr did not finish. Nor, does windows update install updates successfully. Please Help!!
P.S. Ocassionally my browsing directs me to some DNS yahoo error handler page.

Hello Argus.
Thank you very much for looking into this. Ive attached the combofix log and the original full mbam scan log that Pondus said I should have included to begin with.
Close all browser windows and refering to the picture above.
Referring to the screenshot above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe.
ComboFix will will re-run. When finished, it will produce a log for you.
