Laptop virus

Hi
Been reading through previous advice many thanks for that.
I have run Malwarebytes & it said No malicious items detected under each item this was the second time I previously had run avg (me thinks this isn't as good as it once was??) & spybot.
I also did Micro HijackThis and this was the result is everything ok? ( its killing me not using for internet sales! I'm too scared)
Please can you have a check for me as all seems ok now did all micrsoft updates too.
Many thanks & Seasons Greetings

    how do I fix this?
    thankyou so much quite proud of myself I've got this far! but not without all the advise on here
  • Please re-open HiJackThis and choose do a system scan only. Check the boxes next to ONLY the entries listed below:

    Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, including browsers, so that nothing other than HijackThis is open, then click Fix Checked. A box will pop up asking you if you wish to fix the selected items. Please choose YES. Once it has fixed them, please exit/close HijackThis.

    Just so your aware. Both AVG8 and Sunbelt firewall tend to slow computers down (And AVG 8 has had a ton of problems this last year, and SUnbelt sometimes stops pages being loaded, so you have top reload them)
    Id advise uninstalling them both and replacing with AVIRA anti virus

    and PC TOOLS FIREWALL

    I have it on now. Ive tried comodo, zonealarm, sunbelt, armor....
    http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/results.php
    PCTOOLS Is (So far) the only one that hasnt created any problems. Its also known to be the quickest responding, and its very easy to use. Can also be configured however you like.

    Nothing wrong with AVG, if you are happy with it, stick with it as Rik changes his recommendations almost weekly!

    :rolleyes:

    Weve been here before. AVG has had a TON of problems this year and you well know it. Your just one of the 'lucky ones' if youve been trouble free
