    no problem , would have been nice to see it but not the end of the world

    malwarebytes has done its job , see how the PC runs and come back if you have more problems

    Reboot to clear any instances that are running.
    Start HijackThis, and click "Do a system scan and save a logfile" HijackThis should complete in a few seconds, and notepad with the log will take about another 10 seconds.
