    I'd imagine with it being an RM laptop it might have all the RM stuff for CC2/CC3 as well

    I think the D: drive may be the RM restore program but it's been so long since i've used an RM machine, i can't remember if the restore drive was hidden/assigned a drive letter or not.

    Reboot, before running anything else, note your commit charge and peak commit from task manager performance, also your physical memory total if it isn't what you thought. Is it faster yet? Then post a fresh hijackthis log and commit/memory figures.

    run ccleaner, then let malwarebytes fix those things it found, which means another scan. A quick scan may do, assuming it finds the same things.

    have you installed avast, if not, install it.

    Then BACKUP your data to two or more external hard disks, or DVD's.

    Did this belong to a school/workplace once? Remnants of netware on there.

    I'm not a combofix fan or expert, it lacks documentation, there doesn't seem much in the way of infections, but others may deem it necessary.

    Afraid you need to run malwarebytes again as you took no action to remove the infected items.

    To remove the detected infections, make sure the infections have been selected and click on the "Remove selected" button.

    ok first of all thanks to all of you for input and advice.
    Done all what closed said.
    Did install Avast last night.
    Commit charge
    limit 1096876
    peak 363900

    Physical memory
    769516

    I did removed the infected files last night on my previous scan. This is the logfile I just got few minutes back.

    I would say it's a little bit faster... I got this laptop from a friend who only had it for few months... so no idea about the school connections but then again it's possible as her husband works in the education field.????
    Any more stuff to do? thanks again

  • You may have had another scan where the malwares were removed - in which case please post that log. But the log you posted above (post 13) shows the malware were found but 'No action were taken' indicating they are still on your computer.

    To closed: Fair enough about combofix. I'm sure alienRIK will drop by and ask for it to be done if it seems necessary.
