    It should be as far as I can tell from the various logs you posted, but there can be no guarantees with this kind of thing. You can always repost here if he suspects things aren't right and we can take another look.


    THANKS, will do! :T

    If you have CCleaner installed, click that, click tools, it should be on the uninstall tab, click save to text file, bottom right, copy and paste that


    Ccleaner is not installed.

    I'd also uninstall these:

    Adobe Reader 8.1.2 (Support for 8x ends very soon) http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/

    Advanced Registry Optimizer
    ALOT Toolbar
    Conduit Engine
    ResultBar 1.0 build 113 (Probably gone already)

    I am just after installing LightScribe.

    Just an FYI, Malwarebytes should always be run in normal mode wherever possible. It's detection and removal capabilities are far better in normal mode than safe mode. A driver it uses doesn't load in safe mode.

    It doesn't hurt to run a full scan, but in most cases a quick scan is all that is needed. The developers will tell you this (post #9 - nosirrah). It checks all the areas malware is likely to be running from. The full scan might find "traces", ie; benign files that are pretty much harmless on there own without the full infection being present but not much more. Although the possible none default download location & droppers are mentioned in the linked topic, generally droppers self-delete after execution. Sometimes, depending on the PC specs and the amount of data present, a full scan can run into several hours.

    If you've run SuperantiSpyware, don't be alarmed if it finds (adware)Tracking Cookies - Again, these are harmless.

    Thanks! I put it in safe mode as advised by dazzaone1. Would it be best to run it again in normal mode?

    I wasn't worrying about the tracking cookies but she has found Rogue.AntiMalwareDoctor, should I be worried? It is still scanning at the moment!

    Post the SAS log but I would imagine it's an old trace - possibly a registry entry but I would be guessing. I wouldn't say there's any need to run MBAM again - you can if you want though.
