    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Download SPYBOT (Top right)
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_spybot_search_destroy/
    UPDATE and IMMUNISE (Make sure it reads ZERO unprotected) and SCAN

    Then run combofix

    The best way is to back up your data and reinstall windows nothing beats a clean install but if you dont want to do this, I would clear out old files, run CCleaner, Search and Destroy and do a disk check and disk frag. I use to think the disk check features was useless but I had a laptop that took ages to boot up just by running that it loaded insteadly.
  • Give this free online scanner ago - it does not remove any files so is quite safe;

    Please do a scan with Kaspersky Online Scanner

    Note: If you are using Windows Vista, open your browser by right-clicking on its icon and select 'Run as administrator' to perform this scan.

    Click on the Accept button and install any components it needs.
    • The program will install and then begin downloading the latest definition files.
    • After the files have been downloaded on the left side of the page in the Scan section select My Computer
    • This will start the program and scan your system.
    • The scan will take a while, so be patient and let it run.
    • Once the scan is complete, click on View scan report
    • Now, click on the Save Report as button.
    • Save the file to your desktop.
    • Copy and paste that information in your next post.

    It will take awhile to run
