    Download MALWAREBYTES (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')

    Open malwarebytes and goto UPDATE and click 'check for updates'. After its updated goto SCANNER and click PERFORM QUICK SCAN then click SCAN
    Post the COMPLETE log here AFTER youve deleted everything it finds


    reboot

    Download HIJACK THIS (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')

    Click MAIN MENU then DO A SYSTEM SCAN AND SAVE A LOGFILE(Takes seconds) then post the log so we can see whats running
    (do NOT do anything else with Hijack but scan and post the FULL log)

  • often quicker to just back up all you daughters stuff onto a dvdr or memory stick and just do a reinstall
    you can muck about for hours and hours with all the cleaners etc and in the end reinstall just sorts it

    On the flip side, if they dont have the drivers and the ethernet doesnt work they could end up completely stuck
