    Uninstall any LOGITECH software (its not needed for the webcam to work)
    Uninstall EPSON TOOLBAR
    Uninstall WINDOWS LIVE TOOLBAR
    Uninstall/disable SKYPE TOOLBAR


    TICK and FIX these in hijack -
    R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - - (no file)
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [LogitechQuickCamRibbon] "C:\Program Files\Logitech\Logitech WebCam Software\LWS.exe" /hide
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Adobe ARM] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\ARM\1.0\AdobeARM.exe"

    I suspect this might not be helping -
    O23 - Service: DeviceMonitorService - Nero AG - C:\Program Files\Motorola Media Link\NServiceEntry.exe

    Not sure what you mean by remove

    But to uninstall you need to goto START - CONTROL PANEL - (make sure view by ICONS is on and not category) - PROGRAMS AND FEATURES, then find and uninstall them from there
    :idea:
  • I couldn`t find the epson toolbar and those two:

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [LogitechQuickCamRibbon] "C:\Program Files\Logitech\Logitech WebCam Software\LWS.exe" /hide

    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Logitech Vid] "C:\Program Files\Logitech\Logitech Vid\vid.exe" -bootmode

    Have done the rest will post the log in a sec as it keeps freezing on me.

    Your Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware database is well out of date. Click on the Update Tab, Update and run again.

    open malwarebytes, go to the Update tab, update it, then run a FULL SCAN, let mbam delete all it finds (may need a reboot) and post the new log back here :)
