Okay .... let's get rid of some of the tools I asked you to download.

Combofix uninstall (it can't be kept because there are new versions everyday)
• Click START > Search
• Now type ComboFix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the /, it needs to be there.

You can delete RSIT.

Next, download TFC by Old Timer TFC - Temp File Cleaner by OldTimer - Geeks to Go Forums and save it to your desktop.
Save any unsaved work. TFC will close ALL open programs including your browser!
Right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator.
Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process and let it run uninterrupted to completion.
Important! If TFC prompts you to reboot, please do so immediately. If not prompted, manually reboot the machine anyway to ensure a complete clean.
(this temp cleaner is a good one to keep!)


Now, I would like yout run an ESET online scan:
  1. Hold down Control and click on the following link to open ESET OnlineScan in a new window.ESET OnlineScan
  2. Click the

    1. Click on
      esetSmartInstall.png
      to download the ESET Smart Installer. Save it to your desktop.
    2. Double click on the

  7. Check
    esetScanArchives.png
  8. Push the Start button.
  9. ESET will then download updates for itself, install itself, and begin scanning your computer. Please be patient as this can take some time.
  10. When the scan completes, push
    esetListThreats.png
  11. Push
