Malware removal and user accounts question

Saying that, MSE isn't normally running in the background - only Avira.

Malwarebytes hasn't detected anything with a quick scan...

I would advise removing one of your AVs,unless you are collecting them perhaps?

Which you decide to abandon is up to you, I know which one I would get rid off although I'm biased

Having 2 avs is not a good idea. Uninstall MSE or AVIRA (your call, personally id uninstall MSE)

Log looks clean, but as youve clearly been infected then id recommend a FULL scan with malwarebytes to make sure

Thanks guys.

MSE now uninstalled and I've fixed the things highlighted from the log.

I'm now doing a full malwarebytes scan.

If that is clear, can I cautiously presume all is well?

Nothings ever 100% certain. But sure, its as clean as your probably gonna get it

bestpud

Cheers, much appreciated! :beer:

Full scan is clear but I will keep an eye on it just in case.

bestpud

UPDATE: I'm pleased to say all seems well now!

Thanks again :beer:
