Hey essexboy, thanks for the reply :slight_smile:

I’ve tried to run FRST (both versions) on my laptop, but the same problem that happened with MBAM happened again. My laptop can’t seem to run it properly. I don’t quite know how to explain it so I took a bunch of screencaps instead. I know in your reply you said only one of them will run, but I get the same error message for both the 32-bit and the 64-bit files shown in the screencaps I took. Did I do something wrong? I’ve tried just double clicking them and running them as Admin, but neither worked. I thought maybe it was just the computer having an off day so I thought I’d try the next evening, but to no effect whatsoever.

There is one thing that strikes me as strange though: in the third screencap I’ve attached, you can see I’ve downloaded multiple copies of the FRST install file, but they’re also all slightly different sizes. I’m not well-versed on these things so I can’t be sure, but shouldn’t they all be the same size? I mean, I’m downloading the one file from the one site, right? Is my computer totally out of whack? ><

As for the torrent seed, do you know which seed it is? Or do I have to get rid of all of them? Is it a matter of disabling the seed in uTorrent, or do I have to delete the files (as in, out of the recycle bin as well) associated with the torrent itself?

Oh dear, this just got a lot more complicated, didn’t it? T_T

Thank you so much for offering your help though, I’m so lost right now.
