    That's just a minor adware registry key - totally harmless on it's own. I trust you clicked remove selected?

    Great. One thing to look at this should only take a few seconds. Dont worry about all this stuff I'm having you download it's all simple to remove.

    Download SystemLook from the link below and save it to your Desktop.

    http://jpshortstuff.247fixes.com/SystemLook.exe
    • Right-click SystemLook.exe and choose "Run as administrator" to run it.
    • Copy the content of the following codebox into the main textfield (Dont include code:)

    :dir
    c:\users\charley\AppData\Local\834756f8 /s
    
    • Click the Look button to start the scan.
    • When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.
    • The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt

    Again, this should be quick.

    Download OTM by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.

    http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTM.exe
    • Right-click OTM.exe & choose "Run as Administrator" to run it.
    • Copy the following code inside the codebox below. Do not include the word Code:
      :files
      c:\users\charley\AppData\Local\834756f8
      
    • Return to OTM, right click in the Paste instructions for Items to be Moved window (under the yellow bar) and choose Paste.
    • Push the large MoveIt! button.
    • Click OK & post the log if no reboot is required.
    • OTM may ask to reboot the machine. Please do so if asked.
    • The report should appear in Notepad after the reboot. Copy/paste the contents of that report back here in your next reply.

    It didn't ask for a reboot. Here is the log,

    ========== FILES ==========
    c:\users\charley\AppData\Local\834756f8\U folder moved successfully.
    c:\users\charley\AppData\Local\834756f8 folder moved successfully.

    She seems to be going fine, thanks! What do you think though from the logs?

    The logs look ok. If everythings ok now, uninstall combofix

    Open a Run command box (Windows key + R) and copy paste this command in:

    ComboFix /uninstall

    Note the space between ComboFix and /uninstall , it needs to be there.

    Click OK

    Let me know if that wasn't successful before proceeding to remove OTM and its folder. If it was, continue on with this:
    • Right-click OTM.exe & choose "Run as Administrator" to run it.
    • Click the CleanUp! button
    • Select Yes when the Begin cleanup Process? Prompt appears
    • If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes
    • The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself
    Then download and install an antivirus of your choice & run a scan with it.
