Worm Infection Assistance Requested - logs attached [DS]

I have the same worm reported elsewhere here. Multiple detected threats had been popping up incessantly at:
go.wvydeo.com
cdn3.movieroomreviews.com
FFF5ee.com

among others. Have followed all of the steps enumerated in the LOGS TO ASSIST IN CLEANING forum, and the logs are attached. Have also run Combofix and the log appears in the message that follow this. Thank you!

Here is the Combofix log per my initial message.
Thank you again

Never run Combofix without instructions from a remover.

Attach a new FRST log as Combofix appears to have targeted Poweliks, which is in your FRST log.

Then wait for help. They’re all in bed right now/

Hello davea440 and welcome to avast!. I will be working on your Malware issues. :wink:

Please note that these fixes are not instantaneous. Most infections require more than one round to properly eradicate.

Please stay with me until given the ‘all clear’ even if symptoms seemingly abate.

Kindly follow my instructions and please do no fixing on your own or running of scanners unless requested by a helper

Your treatment with ComboFix was passed successful but you should never run this tools by yourself. Disclamer of ComboFix clearly tells that.

Please read the following:

Yes, I shall require the fresh both FRST logs for reanalysis.

So Sorry for jumping the gun with Combofix. I had not seen those warnings. Would have been my own fault . Fortunately I seem to have dodged the bullet.

Attached are the new FRST logs. Thank you again.
