    Hi andy and welcome to Icrontic. :)

    Please download these to your Desktop:

    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM)
    Random's System Information Tool (RSIT)

    Step 1:
    • Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
    • Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
    • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
    • Once the program has loaded, please reboot into Safe Mode:
    Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8.
    A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode. Log in using your default account.
    • Once in Safe Mode, please run MBAM and select "Perform full Scan", then click Scan.
    • The scan may take some time to finish, so please be patient.
    • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
    • Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
    • When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart (include this log in your next reply).
    • The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
    Step 2:

    Double click on RSIT.exe when back in Normal Mode to run the program.
    • Click Continue at the disclaimer screen.
    • Once it has finished, two logs will open.
    • Please post the contents of both log.txt (< will be maximized) and info.txt (< will be minimized)

    Please reply with MBAM's log and both RSIT's logs.

    That's good. Would you still consider posting RSIT's logs. It's possible that something remains.

    Plus Andy, try using paragraphs and full stops, commas etc.
    It makes it easier to read and understand. I don't mean to be offensive but using loads of . is kinda silly :P
