    When you log in with your username, do you know if you are already given administrator privileges?

    malwarebytes : download, install, scan, uninstall.


    AVG remover : download, RIGHT click, choose "run as administrator"
    (Exit AVG first - make sure you exit from the menu)

    I've hit the spam button anyway.

    @aardvaak - what's confusing about my advice in post #30? You need to download the EXE file to your PC. You do that by either clicking on the link OR (if doing so tries to run the EXE straight away) RIGHT click on the link and choose Save link as.

    AFTER the file is downloaded, FIND it on your PC (where you saved it to), right click on THAT file and select Run as administrator.

    If these instructions are still too confusing then I'm out.

    I'd guess that the spam post referred to has already been removed. You need to forget about irrelevant distractions and concentrate on the instructions you have been given before the helpful posters get fed up of you ignoring them and give up on you.
