    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    It's still found 1 thing:
    C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Messenger\msimg32.dll (Adware.MyWebSearch) -> Delete on reboot.
    which MBAM will delete on reboot, so you do need to reboot, and I would run the quick scan again and make sure it finds nothing.
    The other stuff is just being cleared out of your system restore points.

    There are another couple of programs that could be run, but I would be interested if anyone else thinks it's needed.

    Is it safe to do my banking etc online again? I use the laptop for all shopping etc and I am worried now that it would not be safe to do so. Thankyou so much for your help I cannot beleive how quickly I am able to use it again. Jacqui


    It's only safe if you have - at the very least - a first-line form of defense in your armory. And it's only safe if your machine is 'clean' :cool:. Ensue that your anti -virus/-malware definitions are up-to-date; ensure you have a decent firewall and that it's turned on; periodically run a check on your machine with malwarebytes; ensure your router's firewall is on. What's your existing anti -virus/-malware solution?

    HTH.

    Any anti-malware protection? Windows Defender or Spybot or Spyware Blaster - I use all three. Using IE:eek: Dump it and install the exceptional Firefox with the safety catch of NoScript.

    Do people think that Firefox is a better option than IE? Thanks.

    Better? I absolutely abhor IE's interface, and if that wasn't bad enough...

    Never a problem ;). NoScript has saved my (security) bacon quite a few times.
